In my past life, I took in the disabled girl. My best friend, Sarah, snatched up the healthy one. Turns out, that disabled girl was a once-in-a-generation genius. She got a full ride to MIT, and I ended up marrying a millionaire. The healthy girl? She skipped school, got into fights, and got knocked up by some deadbeat. Sarah was thrown out of the house. She blamed me, killed me in a blind rage. Then, I woke up again, back on the day we were at the orphanage to adopt. She grabbed the disabled girl immediately. "This time," she declared, "I'm gonna be the
1 Eight years, and Ben’s mom never took a shine to me. I’d learned to dodge her like a bad credit score. But today, with Ben’s big research project blowing up at school, guess who had to drive her to the airport? Yours truly, the girl with the brand-new license. And of course, we get rear-ended. In 108-degree heat, Ben's mom slaps me across the face. I can't get ahold of Ben, but then I see his student, Sarah’s, Instagram story: "My 81st time being rescued by Professor Ben! He even helped me clean a skirt after…well, you know. #MarryMeNow" The picture? Ben's wearing
I was practically joined at the hip with Jake Peterson since we were kids. We got hitched right after college. Ten years later, no baby. I felt like a total failure, quit my job, and went full-time trying to get pregnant. But the truth was, my husband was already messing around with our housekeeper's daughter. They sold off everything my family owned, even plotted to kill my parents. They made sure I couldn't have kids, locked me in the basement, and I had to watch them play house. I died there, bitter and full of hate. Then, I woke up, back in high school. 1. Jake and
My first day of college, I dragged my suitcase up to my dorm and ran into this girl on the stairwell, whispering on her phone. “Mom, the blanket I ordered online got here, it was like twenty bucks, super comfy… yeah, don't worry, I'm not spending money on dumb stuff. Six hundred a month is totally doable.” My hand slipped, and my suitcase almost tumbled down the stairs. Yikes. The cheapest t-shirt in my suitcase probably cost more than her monthly budget. I took a look at her profile, and felt a twinge of embarrassment. When I got to the dorm, my new
On my wedding day, my mother got down on her knees, begging me to give my fiancé to my younger sister. My brother urged me, “Come on, Jenny, don’t be difficult. Polly has depression, she can’t handle this kind of stress.” My dad just slapped me across the face. “Quit your crying, you’re bad luck, a real jinx! Why couldn’t it have been you who died back then?” It's okay. I will die. But when news of my actual death hit them… My brother’s usually cold face showed a flicker of panic: “No way, this has to be a hoax!” My father clutched his heart, wracked
The butler's son, Chad, sold my freaking yacht for eight hundred million, claiming I was a womanizing scumbag with a nasty STD, and that I'd knocked up and abandoned like, eighteen girls. He said he was donating the money to a church to cleanse my dirty soul. My own sister, Tiffany, backed him up, throwing me under the bus in front of everyone. My college buddies spread it around like wildfire, and my fiancée, Brittany, dumped me, saying I was too much of a player. I went straight to the cops, but they all teamed up, saying I was nuts and had me
The woman who inspected me said I was a once-in-a-century find, a true enchantress in bed, designed for unparalleled pleasure. And so, I was delivered to the most powerful arms dealer in the region, right onto his bed.
When I died, my folks signed me up for organ donation, giving my retinas to their precious adopted son, Chad. Chad ended up marrying my older sister, making them one big happy family. I spent my whole life fighting with Chad, only to end up with nothing but a cold, hard grave. This time around, I’m going to live my own damn life, and maybe, just maybe, find some happiness along the way. 1. I woke up back in time, on the day Chad first showed up at our house. If I’d come back even a little earlier, I could have maybe saved Chad’s real parents,
My boyfriend, Liam, said he had a surprise planned for my birthday, but then he bailed on me in front of everyone to run off with my "bestie," Tiffany. I pulled a waiter aside. "Keep the proposal show going." Later, Liam was all over me, saying he wanted to give me a huge wedding, but I just smiled and handed him a wedding invite. "You're welcome to come see me get hitched." 1. "Chloe, I gotta run. Something came up, and I need to get there ASAP." Liam was practically out of breath as he told me this. I’d just finished touching up my makeup and
