Before and Again
Before and Again

Tragedy, secrecy, redemption—a woman's transformative journey.

"Before and Again" offers more than just a tale of personal tragedy and newfound identity. It's a deep dive into the resilience of the human spirit and the intricacies of relationships that are forged and tested by life's unpredictability. If you're someone who appreciates stories that explore the strength it takes to rebuild oneself and how our connections with others can complicate or heal our paths, you'll find yourself swept away by Mackenzie's, or rather Maggie's, compelling narrative. Barbara Delinsky has a knack for creating characters that feel real enough to walk off the page, and her insight into the human condition might just offer you a new perspective on your own challenges and relationships.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

And she takes satisfaction in working as a makeup artist at the luxurious local spa, helping clients hide the visible outward signs of their weariness, illnesses, and injuries. Covering up scars is a skill she has mastered. Her only goal is to stay under the radar and make it through her remaining probation. But she isn’t the only one in this peaceful town with secrets. When a friend’s teenage son is thrust into the national spotlight, accused of hacking a powerful man’s Twitter account, Maggie is torn between pulling away and protecting herself—or stepping into the glare to be at their side. As the stunning truth behind their case is slowly revealed, Maggie’s own carefully constructed story begins to unravel as well.
