A birthday wish and a place where the past is very much present.
Luke Hudson never had a normal childhood; raised by his Grandparents, he has never known his mother and barely has contact with his dad; but when he blows out the candles on his 21st birthday cake, the last thing Luke expects is for his wish to know his parents better to come true. In the blink of an eye he finds himself back in 1990, back in a time when he was barely a year old and his parents are both very much around.
Struggling to come to terms with what’s going on, Luke discovers that he has been given a rare chance to alter his future for the better. But what Luke considers better and what is actually changeable aren’t always one and the same. Battling his own anger at the same time as trying to get close to his parents, Luke is shocked to discover that he is not alone and that the fate of several people he cares about is intertwined in a way he never thought possible. What ensues is a race against time and his own feelings in a time where futures are fulfilled and broken as easily as hearts.
Furthermore, every major change comes with a sacrifice. What will Luke’s be? And will he be willing to make it when he learns the truth of what happened back in 1990?

I offer in ragged breaths. "We could have just done this from the beginning," he replies, breathing heavily. We both chuckle. I gaze into his green eyes. "Your eyes are really beautiful," I blurt out. "I know," he smirks. "Are you always that egotistic?" "It depends," he answers, pushing my hair behind my ear. I smile at him. "You're welcome then." "I never said thank you." "And I said you're welcome.

Cover
Michael has always been shy and timid. Not because he was abused at home or anything like that. In fact, he had very loving parents. Very rich, loving parents. And well, whenever people found out, they always suddenly wanted to be his friend to use him. To get the latest gadgets or games for their birthdays, and to borrow money that they never give back. They always left in the end, gradually and subtly so he wouldn't notice until it was too late. It didn't bother him as a kid; there were others to play with. But once middle and high school started, it hurt a lot. Especially when they began to pick on him after getting what they had wanted from him. So when his parents moved to Sydney, he saw his chance. His chance to pretend that he was like any other normal kid who had to wait for the latest phone or the newest video game. But when he meets three best friends in the year above him, his cover begins to unravel.Complete
