Summary
To break out of a 24-hour time loop, all Jack needs is for Gemma to fall in love with him in a single day. All Gemma needs is to remember him first . . .
Gemma Peters is doing fine. She’s making a name for herself in the L.A. music biz as a radio producer. She’s got a ride-or-die best friend in Lila, and she gets to come home to Rex, her loving Labrador, every night. But ever since her rock star ex-boyfriend used her to get a record deal from her rock legend dad, she’s made a “no musicians” rule when it comes to dating that’s becoming more like a “no dating” rule, period.
So, when Gemma crashes (literally) into Jack one Thursday morning, at first she feels like fate might finally be doing her a favor. After all this guy is cute and, wait, is she imagining it, or is he staring a little too deeply into her eyes? And how does he know her name? Even harder to explain is the funny feeling of déjà vu she gets every time she looks at him. It’s not at all like Gemma to kiss a man and forget him completely, so then how can she explain the dreamlike memory of his lips on hers?
The truth is this is no ordinary Thursday. Not for them. In fact, they’ve lived this day over and over for months. And while Gemma has been totally oblivious to the time loop, Jack has been agonizingly aware of every single iteration. Luckily, Jack has a theory to bring his own personal Groundhog Day to an end. And it’s simple. Before the day is over, he just has to get Gemma to fall in love with him.
Critic reviews
One of Beyond the Bookends' Sensational New Summer 2023 Book Releases
"What an inventive take on a time loop! If you've ever wondered, but what about the person who doesn't know they're in a time loop and needs to be convinced?, then Holly James' The Deja Glitch is the book for you. Jack's devotion to Gemma melted my heart, and I was rooting for him to get through to her in time to get them unstuck. It's not insta-love—t's the universe giving you as many do-overs as you need to recognize your soulmate when he's standing right in front of your face."—Alicia Thompson, nationally bestselling author of Love in the Time of Serial Killers
"If Love, Actually and Groundhog Day had a child, it would be this sweet rom-com of a novel about how moving forward sometimes means starting over and over again until you get it right.”—Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author
"With this cleverly constructed romance, James puts a fresh spin on the concept of a time loop.... This is a cute romp."—Publishers Weekly
