On Second Thought: A Sneak Peek!

by Kristan Higgins

** Enjoy this special preview of ON SECOND THOUGHT featuring the first six chapters from New York Times bestselling author Kristan Higgins. ** Can't get enough? The complete book will be available January 31, 2017. Following in the footsteps of her critically acclaimed novel If You Only Knew , multi-bestselling author Kristan Higgins returns with a pitch-perfect look at the affection—and the acrimony—that binds sisters together Ainsley O'Leary is so ready to get married—she's even found the engagement ring her boyfriend has stashed away. What she doesn't anticipate is for Eric to blindside her with a tactless breakup he chronicles in a blog…which (of course) goes viral. Devastated and humiliated, Ainsley turns to her half sister, Kate, who's already struggling after the sudden loss of her new husband. Kate has always been so poised, so self-assured, but Nathan's death shatters everything she thought she knew—including her husband—and sometimes the people who step up aren't the ones you expect. With seven years and a murky blended-family dynamic between them, Ainsley and Kate have never been overly close, but their shared sorrow dovetails their faltering worlds into one. Despite the lifetime of history between them, the sisters must learn to put their differences aside and open their hearts to the inevitable imperfection of family—and the possibility of one day finding love again.

Six chapters!!
Six chapters that have left me wanting!

It's no secret I adore, love Kristan Higgins's work. I've literally read every single book she's written. I even read this sneak peek that gave me 6 chapters...how am I supposed to wait till January?!
If you've never read KH, if you're interested at all...read this sneak peek. It only takes 6 chapters to see what a phenomenal talent this author is. She straddles emotion, angst, humour, heaviness and romance in a way that's magical.
Can't wait for January!!!

A well written story with solid characters. I have never cried so much and still finished the book. If you don’t mind crying, this is a worthwhile read.
