Told with Beth Harbisons wit and warmth If I Could Turn Back Time is the fantasy of every woman who has ever thought If I could go back in time knowing what I know now Id do things so differently Thirty-seven year old Ramie Phillips has led a very successful life She made her fortune and now she hob nobs with the very rich and occasionally the semi-famous and she enjoys luxuries she only dreamed of as a middle-class kid growing up in Potomac Maryland But despite it all she cant ignore the fact that she isnt necessarily happy In fact lately Ramie has begun to feel more than a little empty On a boat with friends off the Florida coast she tries to fight her feelings of discontent with steel will and hard liquor No one even notices as she gets up and goes to the diving board and dives off Suddenly Ramie is waking up straining to understand a voice calling in the distanceIts her mother Wake up Youre going to be late for school again Im not writing a note this time Ramie finds herself back on the eve of her eighteenth birthday with a second chance to see the people shes lost and change the choices she regrets How did she get back here Has she gone off the deep end Is she really back in time Above all shell have to answer the question that no one else can What it is that she really wants from the past and for her future.
