Book Cover: Second Hand Heart by Catherine Ryan Hyde
July 23rd, 2010 by Leah
Last year I got the chance to read When I Found You by Catherine Ryan Hyde. When it arrived in my mailbox I wasn’t 100% sure I would like it but I found that when I got around to reading it, I absolutely loved it. So it’s safe to say I was pleased when Catherine announced she had signed a new deal with Transworld and her next release would be called Second Hand Heart. It’s due out on September 2nd and I cannot wait for it’s release. The cover has been released and I love it, too. Here’s the synopsis:
One girl: Vida is nineteen, very sick, and has spent her short life preparing for death. But a new chance brings its own story, because for Vida to live, someone had to die.
One man: Richard has just lost his beloved wife in a car accident. He hasn’t even begun to address his grief, but feels compelled to meet the girl who inherited his wife’s heart.
Someone else’s heart: In hospital Vida sees Richard and immediately falls in love. Of course he dismisses her as a foolish child. But is she? Can two people be bound by a second hand heart?




















I’ve requested this book for the Transworld Summer Reading Challenge. The premise sounds interesting. And I like the cover.
Hi, I’d never heard of this author untill now but this sounds like a good read. I’ll now be adding it to my “to buy” list. Thanks.
This is one of the books I’ve requested for The Transworld Summer Reading Challenge… Can’t wait to get stuck in to it
I hope you all enjoy it. I read it as part of the Transworld Challenge. Enjoyed it…but HATED the ending.
