Opis

"If bad luck had a beauty pageant, I'd be crowned Miss Doomed." So maintains Lily Fatum, just your average 17-year-old head case, resigned to the fact that some people are born under a luck star. Others, like her, well...not so much. For Lily, going it alone wasn't so much a problem as a drag. With no mom, no dad, and an Alzheimered Nanna to care for, Lily knew that, even though destiny may have dealt her a crappy hand, it was up to her to make the best of it--despite her bad heart, bad luck, and just plain old bad karma. But what if fate got it wrong? What if some unknowable force reshuffled the deck to give her the do-over of all do-overs: a chance to go back in time to 1968 and defy doom by actually becoming the mother she never knew? And, while Fate was at it, why not throw in a super-cute guy to really mix things up? It would take the journey of two lifetimes (three, counting the guy) to uncover the truth that would change everything. Forever. "As life-projects go," Lily thought, "this one totally blows. But if Momma were walking around today, she'd probably say 'suck it up and deal.' Then, again, that would make her a zombie. And this would be a totally different story." Kind of.
