Twice in a Blue Moon by Christina Lauren

*Disclosure of material connection- I received a copy of the book from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for my honest thoughts. I was not required to write a postive review and all opinions stated are 100% my own. 

About the book-

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.


My thoughts-

Nothing pulls on my heartstrings more than a lost love from the past coming back into the picture in the future. I love stories like these. Tate left Sam in a bad way when they were younger so I knew it was going to be intense when they met back up as adults in a situation where they have to work together! There was lots of juicy content in this book. Seeing the full story unravel helped redeem Tate's decision. Yes, some of it was predictable as most contemporary romances are, but I thought it was a fresh story with a great feel to it. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading romantic stories.
