Two frenemies find a surprising second chance in this timeslip rom-com, starring Mae Whitman (Parenthood), Colin Woodell (The Flight Attendant), and a full cast.

Mona and Duncan used to be best friends. Now they can’t stand each other. Too bad that’s not a good enough excuse to miss their two families’ annual trip to the cabin. But things get really complicated when they accidentally drive through a wormhole together on the way. Look what playing nice and carpooling gets you.

Now they’re stranded indoors by an epic storm and stuck in an alternate timeline where things are just slightly ... off. Duncan and his dad aren’t speaking for reasons no one knows, Mona’s mom doesn’t like her hair or her career choices, and their siblings are meddlesome as ever.

Oh, yeah, and apparently they're going through a divorce. Which means that in this universe they are married. To each other.

All they can really do is play along until they figure out how to get back to the real timeline. How hard can it be—they already hate each other, don’t they? But figuring out how exactly Mona and Duncan managed to fall epically in love with one another—and then break each other’s hearts—is easier said than done. Navigating all these big feelings is leading to new ones, but are they destined to hurt each other in any universe? And what happens to this new relationship when they’re back to their old lives?

… kam ich langsam in die Geschichte. Die Protagonisten finde ich nicht so sympathisch wie bei den anderen Geschichten von Cara Bastone, deren Hörspiele ich für die besten dieser Art halte! Und als Musikerin bin ich wahrscheinlich etwas voreingenommen und kritisch, wenn es um die Musik geht;)

Trotzdem 5 Sterne, weil die Idee sowie Umsetzung der Geschichte einfach grandios sind!

The Voice Talent is cute & cara Bastone is the worst best thing that happened to my fictional heart. TY for breaking and mending it and then breaking it again.

hate to love this

I found the storyline interesting and the MMC personable and relatable. The FMC, however, really annoyed me with her lack of maturity and little to no gained maturity with events unfolding.

Vouce actors are excellent, story less so

With every Cara Bastone audio I’ve listened to I had the impression that I’ve learned how to be a better person. They make me smile and dreamy.

Respectful and loving mmc, such a nice change
