Written in the Stars by Ali Harris

Synopsis
Have you ever wondered 'What if…?' What if you'd taken that other job, gone on a date with that other guy, moved to a different city. Would an alternative life path have led to a happier ending?

Now imagine if you could have taken both paths…


When Bea Bishop slips while walking down the aisle on her wedding day, she is momentarily knocked unconscious. Her world splits and her parallel lives take her on two very different journeys. In one existence, Bea flees back down the aisle and out of the church. In the other she glides blissfully towards Adam, her intended.


But which story will lead to her happy ever after? And will she end up in the same place?


One decision + two different paths = how many happy endings?

Review

I have read ‘Miracle on Regent Street’, which I loved, and have had Ali Harris’s second novel ‘The First Last Kiss’ in my TBR list for ages now, and have heard great things about it, I am not sure why I haven’t got round to it, and within the first few chapters of reading ‘Written in the Stars’ I found me kicking myself about that very fact. This is because in those few opening chapters, it reminded me of the magical writing that Ali creates. It is one of those books that completely hooks you from the get go!

I am a big ‘What If’ kind of person so this book really grabbed me. The way Ali Harris has written the two scenarios is perfect, it had potential to be confusing, but it never was. It was very refreshing too, there was never one moment when I was 100% sure which version of Bea’s life I thought was better, and that’s the whole point of the book I think.


Straight away I liked Bea, she was so unsure of herself, but an incredibly lovable person. Her support network was wonderful too. I loved the way the relationship between Bea and her mum, Loni developed. It was beautiful to read. Adam was pretty much the most perfect man you could imagine, and I found myself rooting for him the whole way through, he was so supportive of Bea, can I marry him please?!


Overall this book was absolutely wonderfully heart-warming, I thoroughly recommend that you pick up this book. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
