     "For One More Day" is a story about a new life, a special chance to change everything, a chance to change the past. 
       Charley Benetto, the main character of the story, was on the good way to be one of the best sportsman, he had a family and a good job. But there came the day when everything changed. He became a broken man, who's life has been crumbled by alcohol and regret, the man who loses his job and leaves his family. But the most terrible thing for him was when he discovered that his only daughter has shut him out of her wedding. And that was that moment when something inside him cracked and he decides to take his own life.
      Night, empty streets, he in the car. One second, one thought. Booom! He is but he is not alive. Everything is going too fast.
     The whole story of "For One More Day" is beginning for good when Charley is going to his family house and he is meeting his mother there. He's confused because his mother died a few years ago and now she's standing right next to him, she is touching his skin, she is talking to him as if nothing happened.
    Charley is between life and death. He got a chance to spend one more day with own mother who he left and he wasn't with her in her last hours. Now he had a chance to think about the past, about all these things his mother did for him and thank her for everything.

    What will he choose life or death? What with be with him and his family?


Why you should read it


     I know I should write here a long list with answers "why" but I won't do it. This story is so magical and so amazing that you don't need more special reasons to read it. All you need is one reason: faith in the magic. Faith in the magic because wonders really are happening.


Things to look out for


    Love is eternal. Nobody loves you like your mother because she's not only your mother but also your best friend, defender, helper. Mother will always be with you, no matter what.


The last word about the book


    "For One More Day" is a book with an amazing story, that's for sure. But also every part of this book is very special. Maybe that's why you're reading it quickly and you're pleased with every page, every next chapter. But the truth is that "For One More Day" is good to read it when you have more than five seconds... I am sure you will be lost with amongst words of this book.
