Second chance romance is never my fav trope BUT LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT LUCIA AND FRANCISCO!
The angst! OMD I feel it really hard!!! And is just natural how the relationship grew.
This book made me want to go back home to enjoy summer, the summer storms which I miss so much, the smell of jasmines. The peace and quiet of small towns 🥹
I was like SHOULD I BOOK A FLIGHT RIGHT NOW? I am crazy because I don’t even like summer but I do have that nostalgia. 🥹🥹🥹🥹
As it’s based in a small town in Argentina there is a lot of drama and gossips I love that too.
We got:
✅brother’s best friend
✅secret/second chance romance (love the secret part sooo good!)
✅Latinx MMC and FMC
