From #1 New York Times bestselling author Karen Kingsbury comes a
classic story about second chances, featuring the beloved Baxter family
and a young father who finds his whole world turned upside down on the
eve of his divorce.
What if you could see into the future and know what will happen
tomorrow, if you really walk out that door today. Pay attention. Life is
not a dress rehearsal.
From their first meeting, to their stunning engagement and lavish
wedding, to their happily-ever-after, Noah and Emily Carter seemed meant
to be. They have a special kind of love--and they want the world to
know. More than a million adoring fans have followed their lives on
Instagram since the day Noah publicly proposed to Emily. But behind the
carefully staged photos and encouraging posts, their life is anything
but a fairytale, and Noah's obsession with social media has ruined
everything.
Distraught, Emily reaches out to her friend Kari Baxter Taylor and tells
her the truth: Noah and Emily have decided to call it quits. He is
leaving in the morning.
But when Noah wakes the next day, everything is different. Emily is gone
and the kids are years older. Like Scrooge in A Christmas Carol,
bizarre and strange events continue throughout the night so that Noah is
certain he's twenty years older, and he is desperate for a second
chance.
Now it would take a miracle to return to yesterday.
When We Were Young is a rare and beautiful love story that takes place
in a single day. It's about knowing what tomorrow will bring if you
really walk out that door today--and the gift of being able to choose
differently.
