Synopsis

Janine’s about to have a wish come true… but of course she doesn’t know it. I mean, who would ever see that coming?

How many are sent into the ether every moment of every day, even though we’re not sure if they even exist? Do they hover in the stars waiting for that precisely perfect moment? The most deserving recipient?

Janine has no better idea than the rest of us.

So when she takes that deep, deep breath, preparing to extinguish a whole lot more candles than she’s comfortable with, she’s not thinking about money. She’s not thinking about a new house, or a new car like you might imagine. No. She’s thinking about all the things that are wrong in her life, and lately most of those seem to be all about - well, she’d be ashamed to admit it, but her face. So when that magical moment arrives - a wish that finds its target - the most compelling thing on her mind is actually time. The time she’s lost. The time she should have been taking better care - of herself.

What she wouldn’t give to be 20 years younger!

Well that’s a good question. What would she give?

What would you give to have a wish come true?

Sounds great, right? Just the thought!

But you know what they always say…

‘Be careful what you wish for.’

NOTE: This book is a comical, cautionary tale for women of all ages. However, the journey is peppered with characters who sometimes swear, blaspheme and indulge in the occasional recreational drug. So if you're underage, or likely to be offended, then this book is most definitely NOT for you. Perhaps you'd enjoy the more staid and virtually curse-free work of Florence Hartley? To those of you who had to google "Florence Hartley", this book is for you!

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Note; This book is peppered with characters who sometimes swear, blaspheme and indulge in the occasional recreational drug. So, if you're underage, or this is likely to offend you, then sorry, this isn't a story for youCould an unkind comment change your personality? Could a wish come true ruin your life forever? Janine is is a vibrant, happily married woman who, in spite of experiencing some harsh life set-backs has a normal 30 something's attitude to life. Except that Janine's about to turn 50. It didn't seem to be such a disaster until a friend gives her the devastating heads-up that her husband Neal is considered the catch of the day by every Beautiful Young Thing who comes within range . . . along with some other very uncomfortable truths. Janine is just as horrified by the weird effects of face-lifts and Botox as Neal is, so what's a girl to do? Is it too late to change her diet? How many antioxidants can you fit into a day? If only she'd thought of it sooner. Never before had the words 'If I knew then, what I know now.' carried so much weight. What she wouldn't give to be 20 years younger again! What would you give? A comical, cautionary tale for women of all ages.

So, if you're underage, or this is likely to offend you, then sorry, perhaps isn't a story for you. Janine is a happily married woman with a normal 30 something's attitude to life. Which is pretty great, considering she's about to turn 50.

With a magnifying glass. She's just as horrified by the weird effects of face-lifts and Botox as Neal is, so what's a girl to do? Is it too late to change her diet? How many antioxidants can you fit into a day? If only she'd thought of it sooner! Never before had the words 'If I knew then, what I know now,' carried so much weight. What she wouldn't give to be 20 years younger again! What would you give? A comical, cautionary tale for all ages.
