Better Luck Next Time

Two frenemies find a surprising second chance in this timeslip rom-com, starring Mae Whitman (Parenthood), Colin Woodell (The Flight Attendant), and a full cast.

Mona and Duncan used to be best friends. Now they can’t stand each other. Too bad that’s not a good enough excuse to miss their two families’ annual trip to the cabin. But things get really complicated when they accidentally drive through a wormhole together on the way. Look what playing nice and carpooling gets you.

Now they’re stranded indoors by an epic storm and stuck in an alternate timeline where things are just slightly ... off. Duncan and his dad aren’t speaking for reasons no one knows, Mona’s mom doesn’t like her hair or her career choices, and their siblings are meddlesome as ever.

Oh, yeah, and apparently they're going through a divorce. Which means that in this universe they are married. To each other.

All they can really do is play along until they figure out how to get back to the real timeline. How hard can it be—they already hate each other, don’t they? But figuring out how exactly Mona and Duncan managed to fall epically in love with one another—and then break each other’s hearts—is easier said than done. Navigating all these big feelings is leading to new ones, but are they destined to hurt each other in any universe? And what happens to this new relationship when they’re back to their old lives?

Great song & narration

It made me reevaluate the choices I’ve made. Was I a coward to take this path? Or was this the brave path? Also - WHERE CAN I GET THAT SONG?

She is soo annoying

I feel like I’m listening to child. Her lack of coping and failure to talk drives me crazy. The only reason I continued the story is due to my obsession with finishing a story.

fun. original plot. good characters. Einstein is back.

the distortion in the sound was a bit annoying but maybe it is my headphones or listening at 1.5

Totally a fun one

I wasn’t sure how having so many narrators would sound but it worked the story was well done and I really enjoyed it

SUPER FUNNY AND SUPER ORIGINAL!!

I LOVED THIS STORY!! Cast and song!! Keep the same cast and write more stories!!
