WOWWW This one's for the kids who were never wanted, and became obsessed with being chosen. August Lane is told in both dual POV and dual timeline which is usually hard for me to be fully invested in bot, but this was done SO WELL, I never wanted to put it down. This book was the slowest (and hottest 🥵) of burns and the most beautiful second chance romance i've read IN MY LIFE. Regina Black made me fall in and out of love over and over again, and not just with August and Luke, but every side character- Jojo, Charlotte, Mavis, Jason & Bill (iykyk 😭), and even the town of Arcadia. The TLDR; this book completely ripped me open and at least had the decency to put me back together by the end- and this quote that's basically free therapy: "Pain is a sign of life. If it hurts, that means there’s something worth saving.” 5 stars, no notes. Thanks to Grand Central Publishing and Netgalley for this ARC!!
