First Love. Second Time Lucky.

All hell has broken loose in Kate Marsden’s life. Her husband has died, she’s lost her job and now she’s pushed the last of her friends away. Then one day, she wakes up in the wrong body – and the wrong year. She’s eighteen again and it’s her first day of university. Which means today’s the day she’ll meet Luke, her future husband, for the first time.

If they can fall in love again, Kate might just be able to save him second time around.


“A genre-defying time-travel tale – part adventure, part love story, part comedy, part dissertation on bereavement … a breathtakingly insightful evocation of grief”
sunday Times

“Takes a familiar what-if scenario and invests it with heart and nostalgia … Hugely moving … Webb’s memoir, How Not To Be a Boy, was a genuinely smart and affecting read; here, he proves that he can write about others as well as he writes about himself”
observer

“Webb’s first book, the memoir How Not To Be a Boy, established that as well as being funny on the telly he could write both sensitively and well. His first novel confirms it: it’s well-paced, nicely written and highly entertaining … in parts very poignant”
guardian

daily Mail
