synopsis: Aspen Moore is living proof that money doesn’t buy happiness. At twenty-three years old, the singer-actress has it all. Fame. Fortune. Her own headlining tour. And yet something—or someone—is missing.
When a scandal rocks Aspen’s carefully constructed Hollywood life, she’s forced to return to her Pennsylvania hometown, where she reconnects with her first love, Roman Torres. Aspen knows they must keep their relationship strictly platonic. This game of push and pull, catch and release she plays with Roman is bad for her. She’s not staying in Fertsville, and he’s not moving to LA. But their chemistry is undeniable, and amidst rumors and drama, the bright lights of Hollywood begin to pale in comparison to the dark brown eyes she fell in love with all those years ago. Could Aspen be willing to give up everything she’s ever wanted for the best thing she’s ever had?❄️
this book was so much fun, it was entertaining, atmospheric and full of sexual tension! i absolutely loved the dual timeline this book had and found both equally as entertaining! seeing how Roman and Aspen met and how their relationship developed was really nice and wholesome🥺
rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ (3/5 stars)
this book was just a really good, fun time! i really loved the writing style as it was quick and easy to read. overall, i think this is such an ideal read for winter/christmas time and i loved that the whole plot wasn’t just the romance, there were other things going on in the background. if you’re looking for a fun read that you can finish super fast, this is the book for you!🫶🏻
