Rewritingthepast Stories

Astrid never really knew her mother. Cold. Distant. Impossible to love. But when her father walks out for good, Astrid sees the cracks in her mother's perfect armor-and for the first time, the pain behind the silence. Haunted by guilt and aching to understand, Astrid searches for the truth-and unearths a past her mother never meant to share: a love sacrificed, a future abandoned, and a heartbreak that shaped everything. Then, one strange night at the lake, Astrid wakes up in the body of Stella-her mom's best friend-in the year 2004. Now trapped in the past, Astrid has one chance to rewrite her mother's story... To help her choose the love she lost. To protect her from the man who will ruin her. To give her the life she deserved. Even if it means Astrid will never be born.
