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.

Review: I've seen very good and very bad reviews of Twice in a Blue Moon. Well, in this case I'm on the "I loved it" side. Because I did love it. It's fun to read, terribly sweet in those first few pages when Sam and Tate's love story begins.
Then it's bittersweet, and then, towards the end, it's absolutely heartwarming. No matter what people may say about it - cheesy, predictable, etc... - this book made me smile. I would have read it in one sitting if I didn't have other responsibilities.
Both main characters are likeable and realistic. The insight into the backstage of the movie industry is interesting and I have to say I was sad to see the book end - happily ever after notwithstanding. Recommended.
Happy readings,
