Rebecca Serle

Var ser du dig själv om fem år? Dannie Kohans liv går precis som hon planerat, och hon har inga problem att leverera ett perfekt svar på anställningsintervjun. Hon får jobbet och tackar dessutom ja till sin pojkväns frieri senare på kvällen. Men när hon vaknar nästa morgon ligger en helt annan man bredvid henne. Nyheterna visas på tv:n och datumet i rutan är fortfarande den 15 december men året är 2025. Efter en chockartad timme vaknar Dannie igen i sin vanliga lägenhet år 2020. Hon kan inte skaka av sig vad som har hänt. Det kändes annorlunda mot en vanlig dröm. Men hon är en framgångsrik advokat, och lever i verkligheten. Drömtydning och annat trams får new age-typer, som hennes bästa kompis Bella, hålla på med. Övertygad om att det inte betyder något lägger Dannie det hela bakom sig. Tills hon fyra och ett halvt år senare stöter på mannen från sin märkliga vision. Fem år senare är en New York Times-bästsäljare. REBECCA SERLE är roman- och manusförfattare.

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER In this "magical trip worth taking" (Associated Press), the New York Times bestselling author of In Five Years returns with a powerful novel about the transformational love between mothers and daughters set on the breathtaking Amalfi Coast. When Katy's mother dies, she is left reeling. Carol wasn't just Katy's mom, but her best friend and first phone call. She had all the answers and now, when Katy needs her the most, she is gone. To make matters worse, their planned mother-daughter trip of a lifetime looms: to Positano, the magical town where Carol spent the summer right before she met Katy's father. Katy has been waiting years for Carol to take her, and now she is faced with embarking on the adventure alone. But as soon as she steps foot on the Amalfi Coast, Katy begins to feel her mother's spirit. Buoyed by the stunning waters, beautiful cliffsides, delightful residents, and, of course, delectable food, Katy feels herself coming back to life. And then Carol appears--in the flesh, healthy, sun-tanned, and thirty years old. Katy doesn't understand what is happening, or how--all she can focus on is that she has somehow, impossibly, gotten her mother back. Over the course of one Italian summer, Katy gets to know Carol, not as her mother, but as the young woman before her. She is not exactly who Katy imagined she might be, however, and soon Katy must reconcile the mother who knew everything with the young woman who does not yet have a clue. "Rebecca Serle is known for her powerful stories that tug at the heartstrings--and her latest is just as unforgettable" (Woman's World) as it effortlessly shows us how to move on after loss, and how the people we love never truly leave us.
