#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERNo one knows you like your sister. She can make you laugh or break your heart with a single word. And no one writes novels like Kristin Hannah, an author who vividly explores the intricate bonds of family and, as Tami Hoag said “touches the deepest, most tender corners of our heart.” Now, in her rich, captivating new book, she creates an indelible portrait of two … indelible portrait of two women, once lost to each other, about to come together in a time of exquisite joy and almost unbearable sadness. Sisters by blood, strangers by choice, each stands at a crossroads, ready to confront the betrayals of the past. . . .
BETWEEN SISTERS
Meghann Dontess is a woman haunted by heartbreak. Twenty-five years ago she was forced to make a terrible choice, one that cost her everything, including the love of her sister, Claire. Now, Meghann is a hotshot divorce attorney who doesn’t believe in intimacy–until she meets the one man who can change her mind.
Claire Cavenaugh has fallen in love for the first time in her life. As her wedding day approaches, she prepares to face her harsh, judgmental older sister and their self-absorbed mother. It is the first time they have been together in more than two decades. Over the course of a hot Pacific Northwest summer, these three women who believe they have nothing in common will try to become what they never were: a family.
Tender, funny, bittersweet, and wonderfully moving, Between Sisters celebrates the joys and heartaches that can only be shared by sisters, the mistakes made in the name of love and the healing power of new beginnings–all beautifully told by acclaimed author Kristin Hannah.

Love Kristen Hannah. She really brings out the emotions!
Great beach read when you want a quick story.
An excellent read by Hannah
Not as good as The Nightingale but draws the reader in to a rather realistic relationship between sisters- didn’t feel I had to take sides – clever writing.
Kristin Hannah is one of my favorite authors
It’s been so long since I read this book, but I know I enjoyed reading it as well as many other of her books.
I’ve loved everything I’ve read by Kristin Hannah.
Wonderful
I love the stories Kristin Hannah writes. They flow and are interesting from page 1. Although I have not reached the ending, I am thoughouly invested in this book. Although I have a sister, we are not at all like the characters depicted, but that makes it no less intriguing. Read the story for yourself and enjoy!
I loved reading this book.
Another well written story with characters that stay with you long after the book is finished. It covers the complex emotions between sisters and their perceptions of different events. Our relationships change and evolve as we mature and what hurts we experience or inadequacies we feel. It also tests the limits of unconditional love between …
good summer read
I am a fan of Kristin Hannah. The Nightingale was so good that I will willingly read anything Hannah writes. That said, Between Sisters was a disappointment. The premise was workable, and some parts of the book were insightful and well written. At other times, the story line was trite and the characters were stereotypical. An overwritten sex scene …
Couldn’t put this book down.
As good as The Nightingale.
Really liked this book and had a few good plot twists. Engaging story!
Found I truly cared about all the characters, even Mama! It kept my interest so that I couldn’t wait to get back to my book!
