Publisher's summary

Jude Deveraux's blockbuster best seller at a new low price!

Three best friends, all with the same birthday, are about to turn 40. Celebrating at a summerhouse in Maine, Leslie Headrick, Madison Appleby, and Ellie Abbott are taking stock of their lives and loves, their wishes and choices. But none of them expect the gift that awaits them at the summerhouse: the chance for each of them to turn their "what-might-have-beens" into reality....

©2012 Simon & Schuster; 2012 Jude Deveraux

An interesting and well performed treatment of what today's women face.

Jude Deveraux provides an interesting treatment of the obstacles women face and how they can be resolved. This story is well written and the narrator does a wonderful job . Each character is consistently depicted, their voices right on. The little bits of supernatural are believably blended into the whole.

Would you change your past.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

It is a romance. But the people in the story could be you and your friend.

What did you like best about this story?

This story makes you think of your own life. If I could change my past, what would I change and when in the past would I go.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Your life touches many, and changes there lives and yours.

Any additional comments?

I have already listened to the story twice. This book I will listen to many times.

Great Story Line

Great story-enjoyed the narrative. Really invested in the characters but felt the end of the story was rushed and wanted to know how they dealt with the changes at the end- it was like all assumptions

Totally delightful

With the exception of the housewife and her husband. You can’t first describe someone one way and then switch the personality so completely at the end. But this was an insightful, heartwarming, fun and clever story, read very, very well. Highly recommend!

Surprising Story

I enjoyed this story. Held my interest completely. The characters were real and their friendship was very relatable.
