"A gorgeous love story from one of the finest romance writers out there." --Carley Fortune, New York Times bestselling author of Every Summer After

An overworked book publicist with a perfectly planned future hits a snag when she falls in love with her temporary roommate...only to discover he lives seven years in the past, in this witty and wise new novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Dead Romantics.

Sometimes, the worst day of your life happens, and you have to figure out how to live after it.

So Clementine forms a plan to keep her heart safe: work hard, find someone decent to love, and try to remember to chase the moon. The last one is silly and obviously metaphorical, but her aunt always told her that you needed at least one big dream to keep going. And for the last year, that plan has gone off without a hitch. Mostly. The love part is hard because she doesn't want to get too close to anyone--she isn't sure her heart can take it.

And then she finds a strange man standing in the kitchen of her late aunt's apartment. A man with kind eyes and a Southern drawl and a taste for lemon pies. The kind of man that, before it all, she would've fallen head-over-heels for. And she might again.

Except, he exists in the past. Seven years ago, to be exact. And she, quite literally, lives seven years in his future.

Her aunt always said the apartment was a pinch in time, a place where moments blended together like watercolors. And Clementine knows that if she lets her heart fall, she'll be doomed.

After all, love is never a matter of time--but a matter of timing.

Se de repente trinta e de volta pro futuro tivessem um filho

Olha, eu adorei esse livro. A protagonista voltando no tempo aleatoriamente pra sete anos atrás e conhecendo um cara que ela ama? Fofo. O relacionamento entre ela e a avó? Ai, meu coração. A reviravolta no final, com ele esperando sete anos para que ela pudesse vê-lo pela primeira vez no passado e reconhecê-lo no presente, e assim eles pudessem ficar juntos novamente? Eu gritei e chorei ao ler isso. Foi uma leitura tão fofa que me emocionei o tempo todo.

Mas, novamente, já se passaram alguns meses desde que o li quando estou escrevendo esta resenha e mal consigo me lembrar de mais nada. Então, se eu gostei? sim. Eu o recomendaria a outras pessoas? com certeza. Mas não é muito memorável... desculpa!
