Eleanor Dash is back, this time on Catalina Island for her best friend Emma’s wedding. Emma is starring in the film adaptation of Eleanor’s bestselling book, When In Rome, and she’s marrying the co-star playing the character of Connor. Real life Connor (Eleanor’s ex and nemesis), no longer extorting Eleanor, is also back. As are all our favorite characters from Every Time I Go on Vacation, Someone Dies. We have Harper (Eleanor’s sister), Oliver (Eleanor’s boyfriend), Connor’s ex-wife, and several new characters as well.

More of this genre please!

Four strangers get the chance to go back in time for one hour and revisit a moment at random with Aeon Expeditions, or so they think. Once their sixty minutes begin, they realize they’re revisiting the week each of their lives changed forever. When the hour is up and they find themselves stuck in the past, they start to interact in the past and see their paths have been intertwined in more ways than one all along.

When James’s twin brother Johnny dies, she can feel it. It’s not just twintuition; she sees his final view of dappled light through the trees. She feels the bullet wound to the chest. Not too long after she drives from San Francisco, where she’s made her life for the past two decades, back to her hometown of Six Rivers in the mountains of northern California.
