Description
A GOODREADS' PICK FOR 'MOST ANTICIPATED ROMANCE OF THE YEAR'
'Hooked me harder than Fourth Wing and ACOTAR. I TORE through this book' ? ? ? ? ?
'A love story of epic proportions' ? ? ? ? ?
'Firing my therapist because this healed me' ? ? ? ? ?
She's gone back in time to win the man of her dreams, so why is she falling for her worst nightmare?
The last place Joey Vasquez wants to spend her Friday night is at this dinner party. It's only because she misses her geriatric cat, and it definitely has nothing to do with the fact that she is in love with the host Elijah, her dashing golden-retriever best friend who also happens to be married.
She's barely through the door when she runs into the one man she'd sworn never to see again: Alex Aquino, smug broody tech billionaire - and the disaster of a one-night stand Joey spent years trying to forget.
The night couldn't possibly get worse - and then she dies.
Given a second chance at life, Joey returns to the year 2012. She's eighteen again and determined to undo some of her biggest regrets, starting with getting Elijah to love her back. But 2012 is also the year she met Alex, and well . . . old habits die hard.
Some regrets are too messy to undo, and not even death can save her from a love triangle that feels destined to happen.

Reviews / Votes
If you like your love stories messy (and I really do), then you must read Natalie Messier's debut, Every Version of You. The characters are complicated, their decisions questionable, and their chemistry palpable. Natalie Messier is one of romance's rising stars. * CARLEY FORTUNE, #1 New York Times bestselling author of One Golden Summer * An incredibly magical debut that plays with the age-old question: if asshole, why hot? EVERY VERSION OF YOU is an ode to all the chances we didn't take-and the ones we'd chose every time. Insatiably bingeable! * ASHLEY POSTON, New York Times bestselling author of The Seven Year Slip * Wildly, wonderfully, incandescently romantic. * SARAH MACLEAN * Wonderfully weird! An intriguing thought experiment that feels like reading a romantic puzzle, Messier's writing kept me turning the pages to discover what the next piece would reveal. Full of surprises and sneakily perceptive: a story that demands to be flipped back to the beginning once you've finished. * YULIN KUANG, author of How to End a Love Story * Every Version of You is a remarkable, thought-provoking, and riveting debut that demands to be read in one sitting.
