About this audiobook
When Bea Bishop slips while walking down the aisle on her wedding day, she is momentarily knocked unconscious. And in a flash, her world splits and two separate parallel lives take her on two very different journeys. In one, Bea flees back down the aisle and out of the church. In the other, she glides blissfully towards Adam, her intended.
Each path will see her life change for better and for worse. But which story will lead to her happy-ever-after?

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Bea is walking down the aisle to marry Adam when she notices her ex Kiaran in the congregation. Surprised she slips and knocks herself out and from this point the story becomes two different versions, one in which she marries and the other in which she doesn't.
It is not always clear which story is in each chapter but this is a good take on the idea of 'what if my life had taken another path' seen in the sliding doors film.
Through both versions we learn that due to past experiences Bea finds life and in particular decision making difficult and gradually we learn why and how she comes to be such a fragile individual.
Her mother Loni is a lovely character hiding her own past in an effort to protect both Bea and her brother Cal.
This is a fun light read but within it there are themes such as depression which are dealt with sensitively and realistically. It is a bit long in places and I did find myself getting rather bored by the end but wanted to know how it would be resolved. There are times when all of us must wonder if we could change an earlier decision and this book shows what may happen if you do go down a different path.
The reader is often torn between which version is the 'right' one for Bea and like life it's not always clear which way she would want.
