A New York Times bestseller!

Jonathan and Drew Scott, known for their wildly popular HGTV shows including Property Brothers and Brother vs Brother, follow up their New York Times bestseller, Dream Home, with a highly anticipated memoir. It Takes Two: Our Story shares never-before-revealed tales of the brothers’ childhood and rise to fame—from starting their first business at 7 years old, their years modeling and acting, to their first house purchase at the impressive young age of eighteen. They soon found their true passion in life, combining their natural gifts for entertaining with the skills they learned from buying, renovating, and selling homes.

Complete with hilarious behind-the-scenes stories from set, Jonathan and Drew discuss how their family and upbringing have led to their success in life. Throughout, the brothers keep fans laughing with the clever—and sometimes zany—sibling banter for which they’re known best.


This hilarious and heartfelt memoir reveals the story you’ve never seen on TV:


  • Early Entrepreneurship: From launching a business selling decorative hangers at age seven to becoming professional clowns, discover the hilarious origin of their business empire.
  • Flipping Their First House: Learn how the brothers bought their first property at eighteen with almost no money down and turned a $50,000 profit that launched their real estate careers.
  • Overcoming Adversity: Never-before-told stories of personal struggles, including financial ruin, heartbreak, and the perseverance it took to keep their dreams alive.
  • Behind the Scenes: Get the inside scoop on their most popular HGTV shows with laugh-out-loud stories from the set and the zany sibling banter fans love.
