Miller's moving love-infused new novel probes the two separate realities of one spectacular woman: a life with the man who was her past, and a life with a man who could be her future . . . a total, addictive knockout
Such a beautiful, thoughtful story of finding happiness on life's many different paths
Explores a question all of us have contemplated - what would my life be like if I'd made a different choice? It's a moving, ultimately hopeful love story about how we navigate our chosen paths in life. I couldn't put it down
A beautifully original and so cleverly woven sliding doors story, with characters that will lodge their way into your heart. Poignant, thought-provoking, wonderfully romantic, a little bit heartbreaking at times but ultimately uplifting
One of those novels that sweeps you up from the very first page and doesn't let you go until long after the last. I was completely hooked . . . It's a novel that breathes heart and hope and which I can't recommend highly enough. I adored it.
Achingly clever and full of warmth - What Might Have Been explores what it means to take a risks and live life, whether you stay or go
Beautifully written, moving and impossible to put down, this book packs an emotional punch. It's a heartfelt read that will capture your imagination and keep you hooked to the last page
I loved the concept and the story, and its perfect connections (not a loose end in sight!) made for the most satisfying read. It left me with a huge smile on my face . . . A must for anyone who loves a great story with a healthy dose of romance
Compulsive and beautifully written. A must read! A novel full of emotion, excitement and the enormity of choosing the right path
A sweepingly romantic and heartwarming story of "what if". Holly Miller is such a beautiful, beautiful writer. I adored it.
Uplifting . . . I loved this and was rooting for one scenario the whole way through
You'll laugh, cry and cheer at this super inspiring read
What if 'meant to be' happened twice?
An emotional and moving read . . . it felt so real and raw at times, highlighting the fragility of life and those difficult choices, where both options make sense . . . a unique and gorgeous story with characters I didn't want to let go.
If books were meals, this would be a sumptuous banquet - a symphony of flavours accompanied by the finest wines, a masterpiece of storytelling with twist after unguessable twist. I relished every delicious page.
Moving . . . If you've ever wondered what your life would be like if you'd made different choices, you'll find Holly Miller's second novel a thought-provoking read
