Click.
And for the eighth time in my life, my ability to rewind time gains a new minute.
Renee Carron can rewind time. Sixty seconds for every man she's ever loved: A minute from her childhood pen pal, one from her most recent ex-boyfriend, and now her latest crush delivers number eight.
But when Renee loses a minute of her rewind powers, and then another, and another—each corresponding to a minute giver's suspicious death—it becomes clear that someone is targeting her exes...and her.
As her powers dwindle, Renee must use what she has left of them to clear her name and track down a killer who seems intent on erasing all eight minutes and minute givers from existence. But beyond that, Renee has to reckon with the chaos her powers have wrought on her life and decide just how far she's willing to go for true love. In this universe of unlimited do-overs, can she create a perfect reality?
"[A] perfect, mind-blasting symphony...Christine Smonk is someone to watch." —Rob Hart, bestselling author of the Assassins Anonymous series
