It's also her secret story of waking up one day in San Francisco, 1967, having time-traveled to the tie-dyed Summer of Love.But she was seventeen then. Now, at 34, where Mari once saw 60's idealism, she now sees only disillusionment. Newly divorced and stuck in a settled-for career, Mari's failed at giving her child the perfect family she'd envisioned. That weird weekend in the sixties- the rock band she crashed with, the musician she loved, the hit song he wrote for her-- lives in the way-back of her mind. Did it even happen? She's not so sure... Until it happens again.Playback rewinds Mari's life as she makes a second visit to Haight-Ashbury in 1967, now autumn. The band, Mari's rival, and her first love all see the 17-year-old girl they met in June. But inside, adult Mari faces both tender and devastating choices. What if, regardless of how the times have a-changed, love changes everything after all? What if it even changes her?", "item_img_path" : "https://covers1.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/1/64/428/487/1644284871_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "28.00", "online_price" : "28.00", "our_price" : "28.00", "club_price" : "28.00", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
