Publisher's summary

Finding true love is only a matter of time in this heartfelt and hilarious romantic comedy, starring Zoë Chao (The Afterparty), Noah Reid (Schitt’s Creek), and a full cast!

Romance can be a little complicated when you get sucked into a wormhole. Just ask high school English teacher June Flint. One little solar flare happens and suddenly you find yourself 85 years in the future. Eighty-five years from your dream job. Your ailing mother whose only companion in this world is you. Your favorite stuffed-crust pizza from DeLucia’s on Sunday nights.

But when June’s cell phone inexplicably picks up a signal, she’s able to call back to the present—more specifically, four weeks before she accidentally time traveled. Problem is, the phone can only call one number: her work nemesis, gym teacher Mikey Shannon.

Now future June must help Mikey befriend present-day June to keep her from disappearing. But present-day June doesn't even want to be in the same room as Mikey, let alone become besties. And Mikey isn’t exactly...talkie. Yet he’s spending hours a day with future June on the phone, and even more time trying to befriend present-day June. Volunteering with June at school, check. Facing his fear of roller coasters to make June smile, check. Adopting a puppy and letting her name it. Check.

But what does succeeding in the present mean for future June, and for the serious feelings she and Mikey are starting to catch for one another? Stopping time travel is one thing—but can they stop themselves from falling in love?

Cara Bastone is a full-time writer living and writing in Brooklyn with her husband, two sons, and an almost-goldendoodle. Her goal with her work is to find the swoon in ordinary love stories.

She’s a fangirl for pretzel sticks, long walks through Prospect Park, and love stories featuring men who aren’t hobbled by their own masculinity.

I really love Cara Bastone’s Audiobooks!

Cara is so good at comedy and romance out loud. All of her Audible Originals are so fun!

In this we follow the fate of two scared and shy people who change profoundly.

And omg Bluejay is adorable!!!

Cute and uplifting

I enjoyed the positive vibe of the book. There were cute bits that made me smile, but nothing that made me laugh out loud as other reviewers stated. But still very glad I listened. I will give this author another try.

Enjoyable story

Quality of recording and storytelling is excellent. Feels like watching a movie without the nuisance of having to watch the movie!
A fun and interesting love story. I appreciate that it wasn’t raunchy or inappropriate, overly graphic makes me uncomfortable, I was able to hop in the car with my daughter and wasn’t worried when the audiobook came on through the speakers.
