    Summary

    At eighteen, Belly Conklin is tired of being told that everything will make sense when she’s older. After one final disastrous night in Cousins, she makes a wish to skip the uncertainty and wake up when she is thirty, successful, and finally happy.

    The next morning, Belly wakes in a Boston apartment she doesn’t recognize, with the career she always wanted and no memory of the twelve years it took to build it. Taylor is furious with her. Steven barely speaks to her. Cousins has been sold.

    And Conrad Fisher, the boy she thought would always be waiting, is now a doctor preparing to leave Boston for good.

    As Belly searches for the truth about her missing years, she discovers that she and Conrad didn’t simply drift apart. They built an entire life together, and she was the one who walked away from it.

    Belly wanted to escape the years when she didn’t know what came next. Now she may have to return to the beginning and live every one of them.
