Time of Your Life by Jessa Hastings

She wasn't supposed to meet someone like him. He wasn't supposed to be her undoing.

It's 1995, Joah Harrigan is the brash, enigmatic frontman of the biggest band in the world, and Ysolde is the iconic face of a generation. She's who people write their songs about—the kind of girl who could ruin a man.

 He doesn't fall, and she doesn't chase. But from the moment they meet, it's headfirst, reckless, and inevitable.

 Too much, too fast, too consuming.

 Loving Ysolde makes Joah feel alive, but it also makes him feel trapped. Her star burns just as bright as his, and he doesn't know how to be with someone he can't control. The more he wants her, the more he resents her for it.

 But fame is corrosive, and so is love. Neither Ysolde nor Joah were built to survive both, because some loves don't end—they can't—so they just destroy you.

 Meena Reading Vibe:

 This one is read with mascara smudged from crying, a playlist of sad-girl anthems humming in the background, and your phone in hand just in case you need to text your ex (you won’t, but still). Time of Your Life is messy and raw — a London-lit love story pulsing with tension, glamour, and heartbreak. For the romantics who live for the chaos, the lovers who don’t make sense but feel like home, and the girls who highlight too many lines to choose a favorite.
