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.

from 42 reviewsThe packaging was super cute and well packed. I was surprised to see the box was personalized. Thank you!! I can’t wait to jump into my new read.
The packaging was beautiful i didnt even want to open it to damage how well put together it was. Tysm
The book is a birthday gift for my wife. I have not opened the package yet because the box and packaging is far better than I could ever hope for. Just hope it’s the deluxe version she’s been wanting when she opens it
I ordered a signed novel online and am immensely impressed with this shop, as well as devastated that I don't have the privilege of being close enough to visit in person. Ambia was very responsive and patient with a question I had regarding shipping. The book was packed with the utmost care and arrived in perfect condition. She included the sweetest treats and trinkets along with the book. This will definitely be my first stop if I'm considering an online book purchase.
This was packed so sweetly with bunch of goodies (made me smile indeed)love this book and had to buy in pb. Lovely store 🖤
Packaged with care in the cutest packaging I’ve ever seen! Will definitely be purchasing from here again and highly recommend!

Ambia went over and beyond in the presentation and packaging of my order. Completely blown away! It was like opening up a box of sunshine—so grateful and impressed. Thank you. Will definitely be shopping here again! 🖤
Love this store so much ! Everything came perfect
Thank you so much for everything!A true love for your business and we can see it by the care of product package and customer service :)
One of my favourite books from the last few months! LVED IT! Can't waiter book 2 to be released!
I had the pleasure of reading an ARC copy from the author and so happy to have pre-ordered a physical copy with Ambia! The book is perfect short read for days when you’re in the mood for something a little spooky, paranormal with steamy romance all rolled in one!
Very well crafted and the design works perfectly with my off-white bookshelves.
