Hi, I read a do-over type story a while ago where a mid age guy gets put into a body of a teenager. There are aliens who are "god-like" but talk more about energy becoming more organised or less organised. They promote it getting more organised. The body he goes into isn't from the same time line but is a child that when he dies is given a choice to be a hero but doesn't take on the challenge. They give the main character to take on that challenge or "move on". I didn't read much but I suspect he gets Hercules type demi god powers. His adopted parents in the new body are a gay doctor and socialite mum not interested in sex due to a traumatic past...
I'd really appreciate it if someone can help out. It is a well written story.
