Description

Fifty-one-year-old Lynn Roberts gets a second chance at life—when she wakes up in the body of a slovenly teenage girl.

After a fatal car crash, Lynn expects to find herself in the afterlife. Instead, she finds herself in an unfamiliar bedroom, in someone else’s body, staring at a reflection she doesn’t recognize. Shocked and desperate, she calls her husband—only to hear him say his wife has died. A quick online search confirms it: Lynn Roberts is gone.

Now, navigating high school hallways, part-time jobs, and a second shot at growing up, Lynn must figure out what the universe wants from her. Why was she chosen? And what is she meant to learn?

Double Shot of Living is a smart, heartfelt novel with a dash of magic realism—perfect for women of all ages who’ve ever wondered what they’d do if life gave them one more chance.

Advance Praise

"Double Shot of Living is Natasha Von Imhof’s debut novel, and what an entrance it is to the literary world. I guess most of us have said at one time, “If only I knew then what I know now,” and this story perfectly encapsulates what it means to be given a second go at life. This novel is full of heart, and it’s a fun read, too. But it’s also quite a deep book, as it ponders on the meaning of not just being given a second chance but, at some level, the meaning of life itself. It’s a fast read full of action, humor, and lots of twists that will keep you turning the pages. [...] A thoroughly enjoyable read, and highly recommended to anyone who has ever wondered what they would do with a second chance at life." - Reader's Favorite
