Goodreads Summary-
In the follow-up to Abbi Glines’s #1 New York Times bestseller Until Friday Night—which bestselling author Kami Garcia called “tender, honest, and achingly real”—three teens from a small southern town are stuck in a dramatic love triangle.
Willa can’t erase the bad decisions of her past that led her down the path she’s on now. But she can fight for forgiveness from her family. And she can protect herself by refusing to let anyone else get close to her.
High school quarterback and town golden boy Brady used to be the best of friends with Willa—she even had a crush on him when they were kids. But that’s all changed now: her life choices have made her a different person from the girl he used to know.
Gunner used to be friends with Willa and Brady, too. He too is larger than life and a high school football star—not to mention that his family basically owns the town of Lawton. He loves his life, and doesn’t care about anyone except himself. But Willa is the exception—and he understands the girl she’s become in a way no one else can.
As secrets come to light and hearts are broken, these former childhood friends must face the truth about growing up and falling in love…even if it means losing each other forever.

I'm waiting because...
I like the first book in this series enough to go to the second book also I liked Brady more than the hero in the first book and it sounded interesting when we get a tease of Willa in it. Also the synopsis is sounding good.
What are you waiting on this Wednesday?
I need to get around to reading one of her books! Sounds good, great pick :)
ReplyDeleteYeah she is a great author. I don't end up liking all her books but they're short quick okay reads and that's what my best friend thinks about her books too. So if you're looking for those kind of read then go for it. But many people just fall head over heels for her books so I can't say. But do give them try!
DeleteI think I've read some of her older stuff, but haven't had a chance to see what's new. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteYeah I like her older books than the new ones specially later books in the Rosemary beach but I am liking this series so have a little great expectations lol
DeleteSounds interesting! Hope you enjoy it.
