BLURB:
Just
when Martin thinks his life will never go anywhere remotely interesting, he
meets an eccentric quantum physicist who gives him the ability to travel to his
parallel lives where, in one of them, he runs a successful bed and breakfast
with his beautiful wife in Italy.
Only
problem is, Martin has no control over any of this.

Excerpt:
Pages, words, sentences float across Martin’s mind as he lie
in bed.
You are in a state of consciousness similar to a twilight
between sleep and full waking awareness. To find the answers, simply tell
yourself, ‘I will now have an out-of-body experience.’ Trust. Let go. Explore!
If the professor wants to play games with him, then fine,
he’ll play along. Just the mere chance of seeing Abby again is worth feeling
stupid for a minute while he’s alone in his bedroom. Without much feeling, he
repeats the mantra...
“I will now have an out-of-body experience. I will now have
an out-of-body experience.”
He’s getting sleepy, but he manages to repeat the sentences
with a tad more commitment.
“I will now have an out-of-body experience. I will now have
an…”
At that moment Martin hears a loud POP. His body begins to
vibrate violently. He watches, in utter amazement, as his spirit actually
detaches as a carbon-copy of his physical body. His spirit self looks down upon
his physical self, which is still in bed, motionless. This fact freaks out the
spirit self which, in turn, startles the physical self. The sudden fear of both
selves makes the physical self quickly suck the spirit self back into him like
a high-powered-spirit Hoover.
A bewildered Martin stumbles into the bathroom to splash
cold water on his face and reassure his reflection in the mirror. “It’s cool.”
