A woman who has devoted herself to her friends, her cat, her family, and a job she doesn't love is forced to examine the choices she has made when life literally shows up on her doorstep demanding that she makes changes.
Dear Lucy Silchester, You have an appointment for Monday 27th July 2011. Yours sincerely, Life. Lucy Silchester has been invited along a few times to this appointment, but she keeps brushing the gold embossed envelope under the shag pile carpet. She has taken her eye off the ball and has busied herself with work (a job she does not love), helping out friends, fixing her car, feeding her cat, seeing her family and devoting her time to their life dramas. But Lucy is about to find out that this is one appointment that she cannot miss--and she cannot escape it either.
Joyce's life disintegrates the day she suffers a miscarriage. Her already rocky marriage falls apart and she moves in with her father to recuperate. During her recovery, she starts realizing that she has knowledge of subjects that were once completely foreign to her. What's more, dreams and visions besiege her ... all leading to Justin.
After running into him repeatedly, she starts to wonder if her new "gifts" are connected to him. And it isn't long before he starts to question why this woman he's never spoken to before is all he can think of.
Elizabeth's life is an organized mess. The organized part is all due to Elizabeth's efforts. The mess is all due to her sister, Saoirse (pronounced Seer-sha), whose personal problems challenge Elizabeth's orderly world and leave her scrambling to pick up the pieces that Saoirse's whirlwind leaves behind. One of these pieces is Saoirse's son, Luke. Age 6, Luke is a quiet, contemplative boy whose all-too serious aunt cares for him well, and whose all-too unstable mother is a red headed blur. When Luke is playing on the front lawn of Elizabeth's home one day, witnessing the latest scene between his aunt and his mother, a friend walks into his life. A friend named Ivan. And this unexpected friend, whose origins are mysterious, will change the boy and his aunt in wonderful ways that neither of them could ever have expected. With all the warmth and wit that fans have come to expect from Cecelia Ahern, IF YOU COULD SEE ME NOW is a novel full of magic, heart, and surprising romance.
