Bright Midnight
Bright Midnight | Karina Halle

From the "New York Times" bestselling author of "Where Sea Meets Sky" and "Racing the Sun" comes a wildly romantic novel about a young American abroad in Norway who runs into the man who broke her heart eight years ago. After years of bartending her way across Europe, Shay Lavji has seen almost everything the continent has to offer, but there s one country she hasn t crossed off her bucket list yet: Norway. It s not that she doesn t want to visit the land of the midnight sun far from it; she s obsessed with the culture and is dying to see the majestic fjords for herself. What she s not dying to do is run into her Norwegian ex-boyfriend, Anders Johansson, who broke her heart in America eight years ago before returning to his ancestral home. The last time she saw Anders, he was a cocky, rebellious, and tortured teenager who couldn t stop himself from pushing all of her buttons both good and bad. But Shay isn t going to let Anders stand in the way of her wanderlust, and besides, it s a big country, right? She doesn t count on Anders seeking her out the moment he learns she s on his home turf. When Shay sees him again, she s shocked at his transformation into a bearded, tattooed farmer and fisherman who values family over everything else. Is it possible that time has tamed this former bad boy? Shay wants to believe that everything can be new and bright again under the summer sun, but she knows, when it comes to Anders, the darkness is never too far behind."

Since I've had such great luck with Christina Lauren, I'm going to try out this series! Let me know if you've read them and what you thought! Looks like the perfect easy summer read. 🌞🏖📚

KadaGul I heard👂 great things about Unhoneymooners. I'll be reading that for Summer ⛱️🍉🌻🕶️ Reading 📚Challenges. 7mo
willaful This is a pretty good series. Just an FYI, it's much raunchier than their later works. 7mo
ItsAnotherJen @willaful There are a lot of steamy scenes, but there is just something about her writing that sucks me in! I'll be trying the 2nd one after I get caught up on all the Libby holds that came on all at once 7mo

psalva I did some research on Tagore at university for a literary criticism class and found his work to be really subtle, sprinkled with internal conflict in interesting ways. I‘m really just familiar with his poems. I‘m curious to see how his novels are. Definitely an author I don‘t see talked about much. 11mo

bthegood I read The Five - enjoyed it - interesting how people lived (especially women) and how they survived (or not). I also enjoy getting a different perspective - from the victim of crime. I look forward to your review. Enjoy your day - 🙂 (edited) 2y
rwmg @bthegood I have read it before but it is my book club's choice for this month, so I need to refresh my memory 2y
bthegood @rwmg I just refreshed my memory with your review of it 😂- make a great day 🙂 2y
