The Love of My Other Life tells the story of Josie, a British expat living in New York City. Or rather, it is the tale of two Josies, as her life path split three years previously, when she did or did not meet the love of her life—wealthy, handsome Rob. One Josie is now a single radio show host living in Brooklyn, with a huge crush on her friend Peter; the other is happily married to Rob and living in a fabulous Manhattan penthouse. It’s both Josies’ 36th birthday, and each is set to celebrate when they crash their bicycles at the exact spot where their lives split three years ago. In an instant, each Josie is catapulted into the other’s reality—and the other’s body.
Suddenly, single Josie has everything she ever dreamed of: wealth, a perfect figure, and an adoring husband—who, when Josie doesn’t recognize him, assumes she has amnesia from the crash. But in this new reality, her beloved brother David is dead. Josie is faced with an impossible dilemma—to try to return to her old life, in which David is alive, or to embrace this wonderful new world without her brother. Moreover, as Josie falls deeper in love with Rob, she increasingly realizes that there is another version of herself, living her former life—and that this Other Josie wants her husband back.
The Love of My Other Life is told from each of the split-protagonists’ points of view in a dual narrative. It is a story that will appeal to fans of Taylor Jenkins Reid’s Maybe in Another Life, Audrey Niffenegger’s The Time Traveler’s Wife and the movie Sliding Doors—a fantastical premise that becomes a story about love, betrayal, self-identity and that big question: “What if?”

Olivia Grainger’s coastal life in Wilmington, North Carolina, is pretty much perfect. At 28, her design business is taking off, she has a close-knit family, and she and her childhood-sweetheart, surfer fiancé Jake are getting married this summer. They’re celebrating a year of engagement at their secret quarry lake when a naked Liv slips on the clifftop and plummets to the rocks below—in the exact spot where she nearly had a fatal accident as a child.
But Liv doesn’t die. She wakes in a world where her childhood death actually happened. Where her family has been grieving her loss for 16 years. And where Jake, having eventually moved on from the death of his childhood friend, is now in love with another woman.
Void of any recent history in this version of reality, Liv has to fight to persuade her shocked family that she’s really their Olivia, miraculously resurrected after all this time. But even if she can convince them of this impossible truth, how can she exist in a world where she has no ID, no home, no job, no means of legally earning a living… not even any clothes? Not to mention winning the heart of the man who no longer knows her.
Back at the quarry lake, Jake is devastated when his beautiful fiancée Liv inexplicably disappears at their celebration picnic. In the police investigation that follows, he is placed under a cloud of suspicion. The national media headlines demand to know: What in the world happened to Liv Grainger?
From the author of The Love of My Other Life comes a new dual-narrative tale of “what if?” — of paths not travelled, and of universes crossed in the name of love.

Another life. Another chance. Another love?
Millie has a pretty good life. She loves her job and her little studio apartment. She’s single, but she has Bonnie, the most wonderful best friend in the world.
Her love life is a total train wreck. She’s always attracted to the wrong men. She’s in love with Stephen — but he’s married to somebody else.
Millie always wonders what if? What if she’d met Stephen first, before he met his wife? She daydreams that somewhere, in another life, she and Stephen are together.
One day, Millie is heading to Bonnie’s lake house for the weekend. She arrives early and lets herself in through the basement door. But when she steps through it . . . something extraordinary happens.
Millie finds herself in another version of her life. In fact, every time she goes through that door, she is in a new version of her reality. Now, at last, if she hunts through the multiverse long enough, she can find the life where she has captured the heart of the man of her dreams.
But maybe some things, and some people were more important than she realized. Maybe the love of her life – of all her lives – isn’t who she thought at all.
The Love of Her Lives is an extraordinary and unforgettable novel for anyone who has ever believed in destiny and soulmates — or paused to wonder what your life might look like if you’d made a different choice.
This sizzling love story is perfect for fans of Taylor Jenkins Reid, Audrey Niffenegger, Jojo Moyes, David Nicholls, Colleen Hoover, Laura Barnett, Rebecca Searle and Holly Miller.
