When Gemma Sinclair and her bestfriends were fourteen, they sealed up letters containing their hopes and dreams (along with a packet of Lovehearts and a picture of Jason Donovan) in a time capsule. Now thirteen years later, Gemma stumbles upon the unopened box and the uncanny predictions her old friend Miranda had made about their futures. She had predicted the restless Fay wouldn't find it easy to settle down, that beauty therapist Nikki would wear a white coat and that nursery teacher Gemma would be surrounded by children not her own. Gemma is inclined to dismiss this all as mere coincidence, especially as she has long since lost contact with Miranda.

A well crafted story from a writer who is becoming comfortable and more confident with each book.

This time it's a case of what if's for the central characters of Gemma & Adam and her friends Fay & Nikki, will their plans for happy ever after be de-railed by a tin containing crumbling sweets, pictures of Jason Donovan!! and a long forgotten list of guesses for the future made by someone they once spent a long ago New Year's eve with.

As the predictions seem to be coming spookily true they all begin to second guess themselves and the choices they are making, are they rushing into things, is their true love still waiting out there for them or have they really found it already?

And so we embark on another well written journey through the lives of our characters as they stumble through some hilarious and painful episodes trying to find their way towards the futures they long for and deserve.

Once again Sarah has delivered with another enjoyable story of girlie life and it's ups and downs. A well crafted tale and a joy to read. She gets better with each book and and her writing stronger.

So if you would like to spend a time with well rounded characters in an absorbing and fun tale of life then get this book and curl up in your favourite comfey reading spot and lose yourself for a while. ( )
