When twenty-six year-old Maelyn Jones looks to the
stars, and secretly asks the Universe to show her the road
to happiness, she receives an astounding response
from up above.
It all starts on the way home from what looks to be the
final, holiday getaway at the picturesque Utah cabin
where she and her extended family celebrate every year.
The eclectic group includes her divorced parents, and an
entourage of former college buddies with their families,
who gather annually to drink, and be merry. Commemorating
tried-and-true traditions, and generally getting on each other's
nerves is fondly anticipated. They wouldn't have it any other way.
But there's a different vibe to the party atmosphere this year.
The beloved cabin is in disrepair, and the owners are looking
to sell the property. Just another monumental disappointment
in Maelyn's unfilled life. Along with no place of her own to live,
and a dead-end job, she finds it impossible to deny romantic
feelings for a man who has been a childhood friend forever.
When a fiery crash occurs on the return trip home, Maelyn wakes
up on a plane, heading to Utah, and only she remembers the past,
fretful, few days. Her family is concerned and puzzled, since they
are clueless as to the nonsense she is recalling. For Maelyn, it's
the beginning of a series of disasters about to happen
over and over, until she finds the peace and contentment that's
been hers all along for the taking.
This playful, feel-good romance, ushers in the upcoming season
with a story reminiscent of the movie "Groundhog Day". Family
and friends learn that the challenge of growing up, evolving, and
changing priorities, doesn't necessarily have to be painful, as long
as honesty and love are part of the equation. Despite the odds,
this charming novel may have you believing that happily-ever-after
is just a wish away.
