Publisher Description

THE INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER

"A beautiful story about the courage to be curious and change from within." —Jay Shetty, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Think Like A Monk and host of On Purpose 

A dazzling, lightly speculative novel from Emmy Award winner Julianne Hough on the untapped power we hold inside.

On stage at an awards banquet is the last place Lexi Cole expected to drown. But as she accepts the award for top-seller at her realty firm, something unusual catches Lexi's eye: a man surrounded by a dark haze. Then she hears a woman screaming for help, and the taste of saltwater overwhelms her. Just as Lexi's throat begins to close, the man leaves the room and the sensation of drowning abruptly stops. Later that night, the man dies of an overdose, and Lexi learns about the traumatic boating accident that killed his sons and tore his family apart.

Lexi wants to believe it's a bizarre coincidence. Any other explanation would disrupt the normal, comfortable life she's worked so hard to build. Lexi is an expert at denial, a pro at fitting in. But as more strange events unfold, Lexi can't deny the truth: something is changing inside her. She feels other people's emotions, sometimes even glimpses their private memories.

By embracing her new abilities, Lexi can help heal people—though not until she confronts the past she's spent a lifetime burying. But when a vision reveals her husband is in danger, Lexi must decide: face her inner demons or lose the person she loves most.

Atmospheric and emotional, Everything We Never Knew is the gripping story of one woman embracing her power, no matter what the world thinks.

“This book had a very intriguing premise, and I was VERY excited to see it sitting on the shelf and at the library! But. That's where the excitement ends unfortunately. This book was nothing like the premise. Nothing happened in this book, outside of the insufferable main female characters chaotic life that she caused on herself 🙄 from now on, if the MC is insufferable because of self inflicted drama, I don't want it 😆 But really, what was the point of this book? Healing yourself with your friends and husband and forgiving others... becoming a therapist to teach others to do the same? This book just wasn't for me ☹️”
“I wanted to like this one sooo bad:(((( i’m giving one star for the gorgeous cover and one star for the truth I felt shined through in the MC’s relationship with her mom, but other than that I just was not a fan. The blurb made me think this was going to be a ~magical realism~ story but *spoiler alert* it ends up just being about psychic abilities and energy/aura reading. there’s nothing wrong with that but I just was not interested in that trope at all. bummed about this one because I love Julianne Hough!! but unless you love the psychic trope, I would skip it.”
“Woman quits job, alienates friends and family in search of auras and energies, and expects everyone to be okay with her out of character choices. The first chapter or two were surprisingly interesting, but everything after that was just bizarre. Perhaps it’s because I’m not into New Age things, but I didn’t feel this was a particularly good story. I didn’t find myself rooting for Lexi at all, and it seemed the author threw in various traumas for the shock factor. Just a weird read all around.”
