Deja vu All Over Again

Déjà vu All Over Again is a comic story of redemption and romance. Kirkus Reviews calls it "An observant comedy with a dose of heart." Nate Evans, a burned out Hollywood screenwriter, obsessed with his youth, writes a script for himself and uses it as a plot to recreate his high school days. When he gets the chance to reconnect with Julie, the girl he dumped on the eve of the prom, he moves back home with mom and dad and plots to win her back from the bunker of his old bedroom, writing a storybook, happily-ever-after ending for the two of them.
Julie has been widowed for more than twenty years, raised two kids on her own, and now that they've left the nest, is lonely and afraid of becoming one of those crazy old cat ladies. So she's agreed to marry her boss, and she's the only one who can't see what a rat fink he is.
Now Nate alters his story to torpedo the engagement and keep Julie from marrying the wrong guy. Again.

"This is the perfect novel for readers interested in a humorous tale, and for anyone who has ever wondered "what if things would have worked out differently with the one who got away?" — Portland Book Reviews
