From international icon Jane Seymour, an inspiring, emotionally powerful memoir about resilience, reinvention, and living with purpose—proving it is never too late to begin again.

In When You Least Expect It, beloved actress, artist, and entrepreneur Jane Seymour shares the remarkable story of a life shaped by courage, resilience, and the choice to begin again, again, and again.

From a childhood marked by a speech impediment to becoming a Bond girl at 20, from Emmy and Golden Globe wins to financial devastation, public heartbreak, and four divorces, Seymour’s life has unfolded in dramatic chapters few could imagine. A near-death experience at 36 became a turning point that awakened a fearless approach to living and continues to guide her through loss, reinvention, and unexpected joy.

With warmth, humor, and unflinching honesty, Seymour takes readers behind the scenes of an iconic 50-plus-year career, including Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, Somewhere in Time, Wedding Crashers, Dancing with the Stars, and her current hit series Harry Wild, while revealing the private struggles audiences never saw. She writes candidly about aging in Hollywood, motherhood, betrayal, creativity, and the courage it takes to stay open to love.

More than a celebrity memoir, When You Least Expect It is a deeply human story about choosing purpose over fear and action over despair. Seymour shows that resilience is not about avoiding pain, but about meeting it with grace, humor, and an open heart.

At 75, she is doing some of the most meaningful work of her life. This book is her invitation to readers everywhere. It is never too late to reclaim joy, rewrite your story, and fully live.
