Synopsis (Goodreads):

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Unhoneymooners and the “delectable, moving” (Entertainment Weekly) My Favorite Half-Night Stand comes a modern love story about what happens when your first love reenters your life when you least expect it…

Sam Brandis was Tate Jones’s first: Her first love. Her first everything. Including her first heartbreak.

During a whirlwind two-week vacation abroad, Sam and Tate fell for each other in only the way that first loves do: sharing all of their hopes, dreams, and deepest secrets along the way. Sam was the first, and only, person that Tate—the long-lost daughter of one of the world’s biggest film stars—ever revealed her identity to. So when it became clear her trust was misplaced, her world shattered for good.

Fourteen years later, Tate, now an up-and-coming actress, only thinks about her first love every once in a blue moon. When she steps onto the set of her first big break, he’s the last person she expects to see. Yet here Sam is, the same charming, confident man she knew, but even more alluring than she remembered. Forced to confront the man who betrayed her, Tate must ask herself if it’s possible to do the wrong thing for the right reason… and whether “once in a lifetime” can come around twice.

With Christina Lauren’s signature “beautifully written and remarkably compelling” (Sarah J. Maas, New York Times bestselling author) prose and perfect for fans of Emily Giffin and Jennifer Weiner, Twice in a Blue Moon is an unforgettable and moving novel of young love and second chances.

This book was an easy flowing book that had me hooked from the beginning and wanting to know what would happen. Although it was a pretty predictable book, I still enjoyed it as a feel good book, much in the same way romantic comedies are! You can guess what’s going to happen and how it’s going to end, but I still enjoy them! Sometimes I need these feel good books!!

Tate meets Sam in London when she’s 18. They fall in love, but then a chance betrayal keeps them apart. Until years later when Tate is on set for a film she’s starring in, and she ends up running into her long lost childhood sweetheart! This makes Tate have to confront her past and think about her actions, and think about what she really wants! While the twists and turns were predictable, they were still interesting and kept me intrigued! Definitely recommend if you enjoy romantic novels!

Happy reading!
