Publisher's Summary
A second try at love becomes more than one woman bargained for in this delightfully funny and romantic new novel from the author of The Rehearsals.
Can one little lie lead to a big second chance?
Layla’s chaotic life transformed when she met Ian Barnett. Ambitious, committed, and thoughtful, Ian has been everything she'd dreamed of, and she knows he'd say the same of her. So when he breaks up with her out of the blue, Layla is stunned. What went wrong?
But then, Layla gets a call from the local hospital. Ian's had a biking accident. He's okay, but he needs someone—his someone—to get him home safely. As it becomes clear Ian doesn't remember he ended things, it also becomes clear that the accident has given him a new outlook on life . . . and Layla a second chance to get things right.
That is, until Ian’s younger brother comes to town. Matt is restless, unpredictable, and threatens to upset the careful balance Layla and Ian have rebuilt. As things get more complicated both at home and at work, Layla realizes she might lose her chance at real love—and real happiness—if she doesn’t come clean about the stories she's been telling: to Ian, to Matt, to her family, and most importantly, to herself.
What the critics say
“For Twice in My Life is a timeless, enchanting love story. Annette Christie’s writing is easy to fall for, brimming with wit and gentle compassion. This book completely swept me away!”—Rachel Lynn Solomon, New York Times Bestselling author of Weather Girl and See You Yesterday
"Captured my heart from the very first page! Layla is my favorite kind of main character—flawed and messy but still completely charming and totally real. Christie's effortless banter is perfection and she uses her sharp wit to make Layla's career, family, and relationship struggles so relatable. I wanted to pack up my real life and move into the world of this book so we could all be friends. This is a book I'll return to again and again!"—Falon Ballard, author of Lease on Love
"Annette Christie writes with an unmatched charm, wit, and sincerity, depicting Layla’s struggles to decide between doing what she knows is right and doing what feels right with such genuine authenticity that it's impossible not to root for her. . . . If there was ever a book I wish I could read twice for the first time, it’s this one."—Jenny L. Howe, author of The Make-Up Test and On the Plus Side
