Maria is struggling with the everyday balance that comes with being a working mother with two children, and another on the way. She is confronted by a woman from the future who tries to stop Maria from being the victim of a violent crime. As the alleged event comes closer, Maria is transported herself to being 17 years old, and learns that she, too, is in a unique place to prevent the harm of someone else. However, as we know from butterfly-effect-esque twists in time travel stories, such an intervention would create devastating changes in Maria’s “present life.”

This was a can’t put it down book, for sure! I also liked that unlike so many other time travel books, there’s a little more of realistic approach to how people treat someone dropping in saying they are from the future (you know, with appropriate skepticism?! 🤣).

The ending was not what I had initially hoped for, but in the end it was the ending that made sense!
