WHY CAN'T WE SKIP TO THE GOOD PART?

Twenty-three-year-old Nolan Baker wants it all by the time he's thirty. Too bad he's single, barely able to cover his own expenses, and still paying his dues at a prominent NYC comedy club. When faced with his perfect sister's wedding, Nolan takes it as a wakeup call. It's time to quit comedy and make good on his practical dreams-most importantly, asking Drew Techler, his best friend, to be his date.

But right as Nolan is about to give it all up, he's asked to fill a last-minute spot for a famous comedian. Score! He crushes his set, but stands Drew up, misses his sister's big day, and disappoints his entire family. After major blowouts with everyone he loves, Nolan desperately wishes on a set of gift ""magical healing crystals"" to skip to the good part of life. When he wakes the next morning, it's seven years later, he's a successful comedian, and he has everything he always thought he wanted. Everything, that is, except his friends and family, none of whom are taking his future self's calls.

With nowhere else to turn, Nolan sets out to find the only person he trusts to help. Except Drew is all grown up now, too. He's hot, successful...and hates Nolan's guts. As Nolan works to get back to his younger self-and the life he so carelessly threw away-he'll have to prove he's not the man everyone thinks they know in order to regain Drew's trust, friendship, and maybe, ultimately, his heart.

While part of a series, this book stands alone.

Reviews for New Adult

New Adult may ask if we can skip to the good part, but there's no part of this book you want to skip. Filled with wit and humor, a little bit of magic, and the angst that comes with making hard choices, Timothy Janovsky's latest reminds us that we only get one lifetime, and it shouldn't be wished away. It's ALL the good part. -- Jen DeLuca, USA Today bestselling author of the Well Met series Brimming with all the heart and humor you'd want from its clever time-bending conceit, Janovsky left even this old adult believing anew in the redemptive power of second chances. -- Steven Rowley, bestselling author of The Guncle
