Time of Your Life
Synopsis
London, 1995. Joah Harrigan is the brash, magnetic frontman of Fallow, the biggest band in the world, and Ysolde Featherstonhaugh is the supermodel who embodies everything beautiful and unattainable about the era. When the two collide at the exclusive Groucho Club, the attraction is instant and combustible — the kind that feels both inevitable and catastrophic.
Across London, New York, and Paris, their whirlwind romance unfolds amid fame, jealousy, addiction, and the relentless pressure of two very public lives. Drawn to each other's complexity as much as their glamour, Joah and Ysolde keep circling back together even as their insecurities and self-destruction threaten to pull them apart.
From the bestselling author of the Magnolia Parks Universe, Time of Your Life is a glamorous, messy, and unflinching contemporary romance about two people who love each other more than they love themselves — and the fine line, for them, between salvation and ruin. It opens a new series, with the story continuing beyond this first volume.
