Three More Months: A Novel

Written by Sarah Echavarre

Narrated by Joy Regullano

What if you woke up one day and the loved one you’d lost was suddenly, inexplicably alive again?

Chloe Howard’s devotion to her job has come at a cost: spending time with the most important person in her life—her mother. Vowing to change, she plans a trip home. Sadly, hours before she arrives, her mother passes away, leaving Chloe without a goodbye and riddled with grief and regret. But maybe…maybe it’s not too late.

Just days before the funeral, Chloe finds her mother unaccountably alive and well. And it’s no longer May; she’s been transported back in time to March. No one—not Chloe’s brother, friends, or colleagues—understands why Chloe is so confused. How can she make sense of this? It’s impossible. But Chloe is going to make the most of it. She’s going to do everything differently: repair family rifts, forge new bonds, tell her mother every day how much she loves her, and possibly prevent the inevitable.

This is a second chance Chloe never saw coming. She’s not wasting a minute of it.

Reviews for Three More Months

[cyderry · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

I lost my Mom in 2020 during the pandemic and was unable to get to see her to say goodbye so when this story hit with the same intensity for Chloe not getting to be with her Mom at end, I fell into this book hook, line and sinker. We all have lost love ones and had the wish afterward that we could have done things differently, had one more chat, one more hug, one more I love you. Chloe wakes up and finds that she has that opportunity and grabs it with all the gusto she can.Make sure that you have a box of tissues handy!

REVIEW MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS!How many times have we lost someone and said “If Only” or “I wish I had more time”. Chloe has worked hard to get to where she is in her career, at the expense of spending time with her family and carving out an outside life for herself. She makes plans to visit her Mom, only to get a phone call that her Mom has suddenly passed away. She’s devastated. While she is making funeral plans, she wakes one morning to find her Mom very much alive. Chloe vows to change, just not her life, but plans on helping her Mom get healthy. Have tissues handy! If you’ve lost a loved one, this book will hit home. You will love Chloe’s dedication and choices, the bond between mother, daughter, son and extended family members of this tight knit Filipino-American family. Everyone should be blessed with a best friend like Julianne. Here’s to the single moms who have to do it all and never give up. Towards the later half of the book, it did slow down for me, but not sure if it was the writing or me feeling comfortable thinking I knew where the author was taking me. Then BAM, she hit me all over again. Ugly cry. I lost my Mom in 2020, so this hit home…big time! This was a new author for me and I look forward reading her again. Thanks to Sarah Echavarre, Lake Union Publishing and NetGalley for this ARC. Opinion is mine alone.
