In the second installment of this USA Today bestselling series, follow protagonist Erin, a high school senior in tiny Blackwell, Oklahoma. After a terrible accident leaves two classmates dead, Erin learns that she was switched at birth. Shortly after, she moves into the home of her true parents, Sam and Julianne Alderman, transforming Erin over night from pariah of Blackwell High School, to the only child of one of the most affluent couples in town. Also being pursued by her childhood crush, Weston Gates, the dream she once had is now reality. But when Erin stumbles upon secrets that give her the answers she’s been searching for, she also finds a truth she never wanted to know. Review: How do you like me now? Now that I'm on my way! - On a personal level, the subjects that Jamie touched on throughout this story, are REAL! Bullying takes place everywhere and sadly, real life people have to deal with people like the 'Bradys' of the world! For those people in the world I want to say sorry you have to or have had to put up with trash like Brady! This story hit very close to my heart. McGuire reaches inside your 'teenage' heart and puts you right back into high school! She makes you feel what her characters are feeling at that very moment. Whether it be sad, mad or happy! <--You feel it all! I call that BRILLIANT writing, she calls it a BEST SELLER! (worth every bit) Happenstance part two allows us a little further inside the 'what has become of' a very tragic event in a very small town, and sheds light on what so many of us 'outsiders' have had to deal with. (regardless of the situation) The behind the scenes of not being in the 'cool crowd' or the 'inner circle of the social ladder' and STILL overcoming the battles of life! Happenstance part two teaches us that even though the situation isn't 'ideal' or 'picture perfect' there's room to LOVE, and who your heart 'loves' isn't always your choice! Kudos to you Mrs. McGuire! You can always tell when an Author pours their heart and soul into their work and for THAT reason alone, we thank you! #BulliesSuck #BestThingThatCameOutOfBlackwellOK <-is Jamie! Review: Nice bridge to the ending of the series! - ****This review will contain spoilers if you have not read Happenstance Part 1. When I read and wrote my review for Happenstance, I believed the story written by Jamie McGuire was a stand-alone novella. I recently learned this was not the case, when I discovered that Happenstance is actually a young adult novella series. Through the course of events surrounding the tragic accident that took the life of Erin Alderman, we were able to learn that Erin Easter was raised in the wrong home, having been switched at birth. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that we will be able to read more about Erin Easter as she adjusts to her life as the true daughter of Sam and Julianne Alderman. Imagine the changes that might take place in your life if you learned you were switched at birth. Not only has Erin Easter lacked a parental support system, but she has lacked being loved. She has essentially raised herself, having been neglected by her mother. Erin has been working at Dairy Queen to earn spending money and to save for a college education. All of these circumstances combined have made Erin very mature for her age. Happenstance Part 2 focuses on the aftermath of the tragedy and changes to her life, going forward. Erin has been taken in by her biological parents, one of the wealthiest couples in Blackwell. She suddenly has a new bedroom in a new home. She now has parents who care about her emotional and physical well-being. Sam and Julianne want to provide for her and make up for lost time. Erin Easter finds herself literally walking in Erin Alderman's shoes. Bullying continues to be the primary issue of the Happenstance novella series. Erin is still being bullied, although the focus of the bullying has changed with her new circumstances. It remains a mystery to Erin why her best friends, Erin Alderman and Erin Masterson, turned on her in the fifth grade, but she is about to uncover the hidden truth with the discovery of Erin Alderman's journals. And, although her relationship with Weston Gates has progressed, he seems to be holding on to his own secrets. Happenstance Part 2 follows on the heels of a very strong first novella. In my opinion, this second novella started off slowly, with the beginning of the story primarily focusing on the changes taking place in Erin's life. However, the author definitely captured my attention about halfway through the story. I found myself intrigued by the contents of the journals and the truth of what they revealed. Sometimes the truth isn't so straight forward, creating more questions than answers. Although Happenstance Part 2 is not as strong as the first novella in the series, I did enjoy reading it. My rating is 4 stars. I look forward to what I think will be a fantastic ending to this series! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,235,814 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,133 in Teen & Young Adult Contemporary Romance #9,591 in Teen & Young Adult Literature & Fiction | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 1,959 Reviews | ## Images ![Happenstance: A Novella Series (Part Two) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51oea5eM0vL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ How do you like me now?

I'm happy to say each book ends up making you feel good, unlike other novella series, you usually get left with a cliff hanger. These books have a way of making you feel a lot of emotion. It kind of breaks your heart then puts it all back together again. Jamie mentions in the back that someone encouraged her to write things that are hard to deal with and this book is definitely that. Bullying is a huge deal and a lot of times it get swept under the rug. People get treated poorly because of their social standing or amount of money they have. I expected it to delve a little more into the journals. I immediately knew something was up when they were found. I do find it a bit unsettling that the parents would be like sure go through the journals that our 'daughter' wrote. I get it in the same way though because obviously no one knew this girl. I really love Erin. She's so strong after all the sh*t life has handed her. Weston though, for obvious reasons I wasn't crazy about in this book. I'm still feeling a bit unsettled over him. I look forward to continuing this story. I feel like it could've been drawn out into 3 full length novels. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/12247054-happenstance-a-novella-series-part-two](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/12247054-happenstance-a-novella-series-part-two) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-10-03*
