If I Could Turn Back Time by Beth Harbison

If I Could Turn Back Time is a women's fiction novel that attempts to answer the question what if?  On the night of her thirty-eighth birthday, Ramie Phillips celebrates a little too much and has an accident where she hits her head.  When she wakes up, she's suddenly eighteen again and she's back in her childhood home.  Ramie is reunited with her best friend and high school love, Brendan who she's never forgotten.  Ramie has a chance to do things differently this time around but discovers that she was right where she was supposed to be at age 38.  I was intrigued by the story's premise, but was somewhat disappointed with the execution of it.  There were some touching moments, especially when Ramie interacts with her dad, who died at a fairly young age, and when she describes her feelings for Brendan.  However, there were times when the story felt bogged down by Ramie's confusion over where she was and how she got there.  Overall, If I Could Turn Back Time was just so-so for me.
