Summary
Dying in Mallorca in 2015 gave Cynthia time to look back at her life and realize her biggest mistake: she had never been her own anchor. When the universe unexpectedly drops her back into her youthful body in Rishikesh, 1968, she realizes it isn't hell—it’s a second chance. John Lennon wants his spiritual space? She’ll gladly give it to him. She has an art career to rebuild, a son to protect, and a divorce to win.This isn't a story about saving a broken marriage, nor is it a story about finding love. This is a story about revenge.

Summary
Leroy starts working under George Martin telling himself it’s just a job…until John Lennon smiles at him, remembers his name, and ruins everything. Admiration becomes longing. Longing becomes jealousy. And then he learns the truth about John and Paul, and realizes he never even had a chance.
Or…
An outsider learns you can’t compete for John Lennon, not when Paul McCartney already won without ever trying.Bookmarked by alien13rat

Summary
It’s 1962, and John Lennon is certain of the future.
The band is rising, the world is opening up, and Paul is right beside him through it all.
Next thing he knows, he’s waking up ten years later in a white, silent apartment called the Dakota. He’s still twenty-two, still himself but apparently not the only John Lennon in existence.
The Beatles are over, there are lawsuits being filled and songs causing wounds. And Paul won’t stay on the phone long enough to make whatever has happened right again.
Now, George and Ringo are left dealing with a younger John who doesn’t understand how he ever let it all go this wrong.
________________
Ringo watches him bristle at every last piece of the last decade, and mutters, almost to himself,
“I forgot how bad it was. He really couldn’t stand the thought of Paul without him.”
“Wait ‘till he sees him playing with Wings.” George grimaces, half amused, half wary.Bookmarked by alien13rat

Summary
My belief is that Paul's musical relationship with Donovan during the trip to India likely had a strong effect on John's feelings and the band's eventual breakup.
