IMAGINE BEING SENT BACK AS A GUARDIAN ANGEL...TO YOUR EX!

Charlotte Grey
is hovering between life and death, but it's taken a coma for her to realize she's made a complete mess of her short time on earth. Not to mention the five precious dating years she's just wasted on the cheating, faithless James Kane.

But after a quick peek at the afterlife, she decides it's not all it's cracked up to be either.

So, when she is offered the chance to go back to earth, this time as a fully-fledged angel, she jumps at it. But as always, there's a catch. The person she's assigned to watch over is ...a certain Mr James Kane.

And this is where the fun really starts. Well, just because she's passed on doesn't necessarily mean she's moved on, does it?
