Synopsis

If you had a chance to do over your biggest regret, would you take it?

Alison is a 28 year old living in Boston who is more-or-less happy in her somewhat boring life.
She is challenged by the terms of her eccentric aunt’s will to fix a big mistake she made as a college senior - turning down law school for love.

While having everything from her job to her apartment disrupted, she has to decide if she’s willing to re-do things the right way around this time, or if she’s courageous enough to find her own path.

Having been burned by love before, she is hesitant in allowing another guy - even one as hot as Ryan - shape her future.

Chapter One

     Women aren’t just the superior members of the species homo sapiens; they are a superior species entirely. –Elinor Hobbs

     Alison easily sidesteps a rollerblade and a stuffed bear, clicking her designer heels down the Brazilian cherry hardwood floors in the front hall of her Beacon Hill brownstone. She catches her reflection in the front hall mirror. At thirty-five, she looks ten years younger, thanks to a great dermatologist, a happy marriage, and a regular date with the treadmill. Her two tow-haired children are busy with backpacks, rain boots, and lunchboxes. As they hurry down the hall, she smiles adoringly at them. So beautiful, so well-behaved.
      Hearing heavy footsteps on the stairs, she turns and takes in a sight that still makes her knees tremble. Her gorgeous and successful husband, Nick, takes the steps quickly as he straightens the knot of his tie and shrugs into his navy suit jacket. He stops at the bottom step and reaches for her, giving her a deep kiss conveying his love, admiration, and passion. “Ali, honey, why don’t I drop the kids off at school this morning? I know you have that big case, and I don’t want you to be late.”
      She reaches up to brush aside a lock of his dark hair. “Thank you, Nick. I would appreciate it. You know how nervous I get.”
      “I don’t know why. You’re the best attorney at the firm. In fact, I’m so confident you’ll do another fabulous job, I‘ll have my secretary book us a table at Grazie’s to celebrate tonight.”
      “I love you, Nick.”
      “I love you too.”
