Life doesn't have a rewind button. Ever wished it did? Flora's wish is about to come true, in a magical new novel about the ultimate second chance, from the author of WORKING WONDERS. Flora's at her best friend Sashy's wedding, and it's all perfectly...nice. And exactly the same as the other eighteen weddings she's been to this year. Suddenly it hits her -- this is it, she's grown up and contemplating an identical wedding, to a slightly different groom, and a life of 60-hour weeks and takeaways in front of the TV. It's alright, but it's not what she dreamed of when she was sixteen. As Sashy cuts the cake, Flora makes a wish: to go back and do it all again -- and get it right this time. The next morning she wakes to find she's back at home with her parents. Her wish has come true -- it's still 2003, but she's sixteen again. Her old flat belongs to someone else, her old job is gone and it seems her existence is wiped out in this new world. Fortunately Sashy -- now trapped in a terrible marriage -- still recognizes her, and so does Clelland, her first love, who thinks she's a ghost from his past.
Will Flora be able to cope with school all over again (and find out who entered her in Pop Idol?), help Sashy and map out a new future for herself? And what about Clelland and his baby brother -- now grown up and at school with Flora? Most of all, now she's rediscovered the joys of a pin waist and breasts up to her neck, will she ever want to go back to being thirty-one again?
