Když se Jack a Kate potkají na párty, spojí je sdílená láska k ovocným lupínkům a oblíbeným filmům. Jackovi je jasné, že se do téhle holky zamiloval – a to až po uši. Brzy už ji seznámí se svými nejlepšími kamarády Jillian a Frannym a Kate si je získá stejně snadno jako jeho. Jackova „skoro“ kletba byla konečně zlomena! Ale jejich láska je… komplikovaná. Žijí totiž šťastně až navěky… ale jen skoro. Protože Kate zemře. A tím by měl jejich příběh skončit. Jenže Kateina smrt vrátí Jacka zase na začátek, do chvíle, kdy se poprvé setkali. A Kate je zpátky. Krásná a rozzářená. Zdravá, šťastná a okouzlující, tak jako vždycky. Jack si není jistý, jestli se náhodou nezbláznil. Ale jestli existuje šance, že by mohl Kateině smrti zabránit, rozhodně se jí nevzdá. I kdyby to mělo znamenat, že musí začít věřit na cestování časem. Brzy však zjistí, že jeho činy mají následky. A když se jedno z jeho rozhodnutí stane pro někoho blízkého smrtelným, musí přijít na to, co je ochotný udělat – a obětovat – aby zachránil lidi, které má rád.
