Regretting You

Soon to be a major motion picture starring Mckenna Grace, Mason Thames, Allison Williams, and Dave Franco.

From #1 New York Times bestselling author of It Ends with Us comes a novel about family, first love, grief, and betrayal that will touch the hearts of both mothers and daughters.

Morgan Grant and her sixteen-year-old daughter, Clara, would like nothing more than to be nothing alike.

Morgan is determined to prevent her daughter from making the same mistakes she did. By getting pregnant and married way too young, Morgan put her own dreams on hold. Clara doesn't want to follow in her mother's footsteps. Her predictable mother doesn't have a spontaneous bone in her body.

With warring personalities and conflicting goals, Morgan and Clara find it increasingly difficult to coexist. The only person who can bring peace to the household is Chris--Morgan's husband, Clara's father, and the family anchor. But that peace is shattered when Chris is involved in a tragic and questionable accident. The heartbreaking and long-lasting consequences will reach far beyond just Morgan and Clara.

While struggling to rebuild everything that crashed around them, Morgan finds comfort in the last person she expects to, and Clara turns to the one boy she's been forbidden to see. With each passing day, new secrets, resentment, and misunderstandings make mother and daughter fall further apart. So far apart, it might be impossible for them to ever fall back together.

I really loved this one! I felt so much for Morgan and although the storyline doesn't directly reflect my relationship with my mom I understood my mom a lot more. The cross-over with the characters makes for a very interesting story and really had me dying to finish.

No one makes me feel at one with characters like Colleen does, she fully submerges me in her books! I smile, I laugh, I’m frustrated, I cry all because her writing makes you become the book!

LIKE ALWAYS, THE QUEEN DID NOT DISAPPOINT. I’ve been a fan of Colleen for a while, and her books always managed to leave me a sobbing mess. I love the humanness she displays in her characters, showing us the traits we tend to forget human beings can actually possess while still creating a raw, heartbreaking story that will leave you with a profound appreciation for people & their ability to love
