La vita di Erin è cambiata all'improvviso. Tutto quello in cui ha sempre creduto si è rivelato una bugia. E ora, in una nuova casa e in una nuova famiglia, non sa più quale sia il suo posto. A scuola nessuno riesce a capirla. Nessuno tranne Weston. Con lui accanto ogni cosa ha un sapore diverso, una luce speciale. Ma i problemi sono sempre dietro l'angolo. Perché Weston è una calamita per situazioni complicate. D'un tratto il loro amore inesauribile e unico sembra farsi in pezzi. Erin non crede più a nulla. Il suo cuore torna a chiudersi per non soffrire ancora. Eppure Weston conosce la strada che porta ai suoi sentimenti più fragili. Adesso Erin deve trovare dentro di sé la forza di combattere contro tutto e tutti. Contro un passato che ha ancora molto da raccontare e contro la paura di ammettere che quello che la lega a Weston è pura magia. Perché anche per sognare ci vuole coraggio.

Much better than the 1st book. Looking forward to reading the 3rd. ( )

I liked this book even more than the first. It was interesting to find out why Erin had been bullied most of her life and I enjoyed getting to know Sam and Julianne, Erin's real parents, more. I admired the tender, loving care they showed Erin, so different from her life with Gina. Weston matured in this book and, despite some wrong choices, continued to support Erin and stay by her side as she attempts to navigate the sudden changes in her life. Looking forward to the final instalment. ( )

The second Happenstance novella starts soon after the first one begins. Erin's life has turned upside down and this installment focuses on her new life and relationships wirh her parents.

Suddenly she is surrounded by love and affection, something she has never known before. At times, it felt a little forced and that acceptance came too quickly, but in retrospect, it seems right. It was an unusual circumstance, with everyone trying to do the right thing and not overstep. And for Erin, it was a strange place to find herself after a lifetime of essentially raising herself.

In the first novella, Weston wasn't always my favorite character. As much as I understood him, I wanted him to be a little more upfront in his support of Erin. No, she didn't need a hero, but it seemed as if Weston wasn't always as strong as he should be, even for himself. But now that Erin's truths have been revealed, it was somehow easier for him to be open about how he felt and to be more openly supportive of her and I am not sure I loved the social implications of that easier acceptance. But the reality is, he had secrets, too.

And those secrets began to surface, shattering Erin's tenuous hold on trust. She learned the reasons behind the Erin's suidden switch to mean girl bullying, and Weston's part in that. Initially, this definitely did not endear me to Weston, no matter how much I realized it was not something he wanted, but as the story unfolded and explanations were given, I came around!

Weirdly, I was happy that the bullying didn't entirely stop. If it had, the message would have been that money was all that mattered in social acceptance. But her newfound familial wealth didn't change the opinions of those who had bullied her entire life. Instead, they saw her as a usurper, trying to take the place of someone she would never be. But what these people didn't realize is that she never wanted to be anyone other than who she was and that money was immaterial to her. In many ways, she felt more comfortable without it.

The only thing that I felt uneasy about, in this novella and the last, was the lack of contact/connection with Gina, the woman who raised Erin. I realize that Erin's life with her was largely unpleasant, but I felt like there was a level of compassion that was lacking. When things changed for Erin, they changed irrevocably for Gna, too. She lost a daughter, too.

My Recommendation: I love these stories! They tackle hard issues and do so realistically. I love that things don't fall into place too easily, but that there are obstacles and periods of adjustment. ( )
