Excellent！I loved You Again。 This book has so much truth in it。 The mistakes we make as teenagers， the quick judgement and opinions as adults。 Everyone deserves a do over at some point。

This is a 2nd chance love story。 Sutton and Kate fell in love as teenagers and planned a life together。 Sutton was going off to college to take on the world and Kate would wait for her。 Best laid plans。 Sutton comes back from school and Kate is pregnant and that’s the end of that。10 years later， Sutton’s Dad needs knee replacement and Sutton comes home for the summer to take care of him。 Sutton comes home a success。 She’s not real thrilled to run into Kate but knew it would happen。 What she hadn This is a 2nd chance love story。 Sutton and Kate fell in love as teenagers and planned a life together。 Sutton was going off to college to take on the world and Kate would wait for her。 Best laid plans。 Sutton comes back from school and Kate is pregnant and that’s the end of that。10 years later， Sutton’s Dad needs knee replacement and Sutton comes home for the summer to take care of him。 Sutton comes home a success。 She’s not real thrilled to run into Kate but knew it would happen。 What she hadn’t expected is Harper， Kates young daughter。 Harper was written very well。 Spunky， outspoken and kind。 She stole Sutton’s heart and my heart also。 They thought that they might have a fling until someone falls in love。The writing was excellent。 The characters were well developed。 This was just an enjoyable book to read。 。。。more

Given the events leading to their original breakup， Kate and Sutton's second-chance romance is relatively drama free。 Although a little unbelievable， this does allow the story arc to focus more on them reconnecting and considering whether they would like to develop a more lasting relationship。 A perceptive nine-year old and an insightful brother provide the occasional push when needed。 Overall a decent read。 Given the events leading to their original breakup， Kate and Sutton's second-chance romance is relatively drama free。 Although a little unbelievable， this does allow the story arc to focus more on them reconnecting and considering whether they would like to develop a more lasting relationship。 A perceptive nine-year old and an insightful brother provide the occasional push when needed。 Overall a decent read。 。。。more

Oh， how I love lower-angst romances， and oh， how I love how Aurora Rey handles them。 A second-chance romance， this one put bisexual Kate and lesbian Sutton back into each others' orbits after ten years of a seriously bad break-up: one where eighteen year-old Sutton had left for college for four months and returned to find seventeen year-old Kate was pregnant kind of bad。 Huge， and for teenagers， definitely not an easy thing to navigate。 Fast-forward those ten years， however， and single-parent Ka Oh， how I love lower-angst romances， and oh， how I love how Aurora Rey handles them。 A second-chance romance， this one put bisexual Kate and lesbian Sutton back into each others' orbits after ten years of a seriously bad break-up: one where eighteen year-old Sutton had left for college for four months and returned to find seventeen year-old Kate was pregnant kind of bad。 Huge， and for teenagers， definitely not an easy thing to navigate。 Fast-forward those ten years， however， and single-parent Kate has her life in a pretty solid state， working for her family at the local hardware shop and raising her kid and making jewelry on the side， and Sutton—whose father wanted nothing more for her than to leave the "podunk" town and live up to her potential—has done just that， with a great career and important position she can， luckily， put on hold for three months while her father has knee replacement surgery。It's a small town， and it's not long before they bump into each other， and。。。 well。 Both remember the sharp pain of the past， but it's been ten years， and the ten years between seventeen and eighteen to twenty-seven and twenty-eight are a lot。 This is where， I think， Rey's characterization really shone the most here。 Of course the two reacted terribly to Kate's betrayal and Sutton's resultant cut-and-run， but they're not those teenagers any more and it's clear there's still something between them。 Harper （Kate's daughter） is also a lynchpin to the framing of the choice in Kate's past on many levels: she understands it as a mistake that hurt Sutton， but it also led to Harper， who is a singular joy in her life， and thus she can regret it on some levels， but without wishing it had never happened。 While I know a lot of readers nope out of a book when any cheating is involved， this is teenaged cheating and a decade in the past， and while it definitely shaped the two women （and left both worried in very specific ways about repeating patterns） the end-result fed into characterization， not angst or trauma。 This was a wonderful audiobook companion for the last few weeks while I walked the dog， and I'm going to miss it。 Kate Chilton did a wonderful narration as always， and I hope I get to return to this small Lousiana town some time in the future with more Rey books， as the cast of supporting characters—even the parents， who I wanted to shake multiple times—was a nice， atypical touch for small-town nowhere。 Kate's trans brother， Harper herself， two nearby older lesbians Sutton works with。。。 it all felt connected in a way I love to read。 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 I’ve read one or two of Rey’s previous books and this is much like the others。 It’s well written and is a smooth read。 “You Again” is a steamy second chance romance about Sutton and Kate。 They were high school loves until Sutton left to go to college while Kate still had her senior year to finish out。 Now it’s 10 years later and Sutton is back in town to help her dad through his knee surgeries and rehab。Kate never left their hometown and is now raising her 9-year-old daughter， Harper。 She’s runn I’ve read one or two of Rey’s previous books and this is much like the others。 It’s well written and is a smooth read。 “You Again” is a steamy second chance romance about Sutton and Kate。 They were high school loves until Sutton left to go to college while Kate still had her senior year to finish out。 Now it’s 10 years later and Sutton is back in town to help her dad through his knee surgeries and rehab。Kate never left their hometown and is now raising her 9-year-old daughter， Harper。 She’s running her family’s hardware store and seems happy and content with her life。 Sutton is working in Atlanta in a high paying tech job。 She loves her work but otherwise finds her life dull and boring。 Kate is a strong femme character and Sutton is a soft butch， which is Rey’s go to。 I really liked Sutton; she is sweet and shy although a little bit of a doormat。 Kate comes across as the outgoing girl next door kind of person。 And， I really enjoyed this right up until the 80% mark or so。 After that， it completely fell apart for me。 I’ll put this in the spoiler tag because although it’s explained pretty early on， I don’t want anyone to get mad reading this。 While this isn’t a story where anyone cheats in the current storyline， it did happen in their previous relationship。 I really didn’t like how Kate never took ownership of her cheating and acted like Sutton breaking up with her （or abandoning her as she refers to it） is the bigger betrayal。 She says sleeping with person B was “stupid and impulsive” but she never admits to it being wrong or how hurtful it was to Sutton。 Apparently， because it results in Harper， it wasn’t that big of a deal and Sutton should’ve just been okay with her breaking Suttons trust or their commitment？ In my books， buying $300 shoes is stupid and impulsive。 Sutton didn’t abandon Kate…she broke up with her， which most people would’ve also done。 Somehow， all the blame for the past break up is put at Sutton’s feet and she just accepts it。 Frankly， with Kate’s attitude about it all， I would be worried she’d cheat again if Sutton ever has to leave for an extended period of time for work。 They also seem to lack communication skills with one another about a lot of important things or simply jump to conclusions。 This was a disappointing read for me because I really love second chance romances。 And I did love this until the cheating stuff is finally talked about。 Kate’s true character comes out then and I found I just didn’t like her after all and wanted better for Sutton。 I received an ARC from NetGalley and Bold Strokes Books in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

Sometimes the past is worth revisiting！First off， this is Aurora Rey， so I knew I would like this book because she writes stories that I love to read。 Her winning formula of butch woman that falls for strong femmes ticks so many boxes for me。I adored Sutton and Kate from the beginning， but I really loved Harper， Kate's Daughter。 She was the kind of girl I'd love to have as my daughter， brave， kind and intelligent！ She was a beautiful addition to this story and all my favourite moments had Harper Sometimes the past is worth revisiting！First off， this is Aurora Rey， so I knew I would like this book because she writes stories that I love to read。 Her winning formula of butch woman that falls for strong femmes ticks so many boxes for me。I adored Sutton and Kate from the beginning， but I really loved Harper， Kate's Daughter。 She was the kind of girl I'd love to have as my daughter， brave， kind and intelligent！ She was a beautiful addition to this story and all my favourite moments had Harper in them。 I loved watching Sutton brick by brick take Kate's walls down。 It's clear from the beginning that the love between them has never died， especially for Sutton。 Once Kate finally lets down the walls， you realised that they are soul mates and that the story would always end with them finding each other again。 The epilogue in this book was possibly the best I have read this year， and I finished this book knowing that these characters were set on the road to happily ever after。So， in the beginning， Sutton and Kate are already attracted to one another because they've been in a relationship before， but with age comes wisdom， and it's like the chemistry they had before is doubled even though they approach it with caution。 When they do fall into bed， it's combustible… like the pot has been on a simmer for the years they've been apart， and then it boils over the moment they kiss。 I felt like Kate never really took responsibility for her side of the breakup。 Yes， they were both at fault， but there was a part of me that wondered if I was Sutton if I could have gotten over the circumstances that broke them up。 I kept thinking of the 'Sex In The City' scene where Aiden shouts to Carrie， "YOU BROKE MY FUCKING HEART！" and how much it was a gut punch to everyone watching it。 I kept waiting for that moment to happen where Sutton would snap， and Kate would see the force of the hurt Sutton felt。I really enjoyed You Again， and honestly， if Aurora Rey keeps writing， I will keep showing up to read。 She's one of my favourites， and I get excited every time a new book is announced。 I know this one will be on my reread list very soon。 。。。more

Second chance romance。 And as is usually the case the kid steals the show！ Not really but Harper’s relationship with Sutton is sweet。 I might date myself a bit here， but this story felt like a lesbian after school special。

5/10Why do I let myself have such high expectations for books？Yes， I was very disappointed with this one。 I thought it'd be a 5 star read when， in reality， it turned out to be almost a two star one。 Oops。A big oops， indeed。 So， this story turned out to be an unneeded big a*s drama over simple cheating from a decade ago。 And Sutton is the bad guy。 Why is she constantly getting so much hate for leaving her ex girlfriend when that girl cheated on her and got pregnant。 WHY IS SUTTON THE BAD GUY？？And 5/10Why do I let myself have such high expectations for books？Yes， I was very disappointed with this one。 I thought it'd be a 5 star read when， in reality， it turned out to be almost a two star one。 Oops。A big oops， indeed。 So， this story turned out to be an unneeded big a*s drama over simple cheating from a decade ago。 And Sutton is the bad guy。 Why is she constantly getting so much hate for leaving her ex girlfriend when that girl cheated on her and got pregnant。 WHY IS SUTTON THE BAD GUY？？And Kate， the cheater， is acting as if she didn't really do a bad thing。 Because - HOW COULD YOU LEAVE ME LOOK AT YOU LEAVING ME AGAIN。Such a weird vibe。Even with all the supossed very forced conflict it felt too unbelievable， weak and flat。I feel like a lot of characters just don’t really communicate with each other。 So annoying。I really had trouble believing a nine year old talks like that and it felt weird and unbelievable。 But if nine year olds really talk like Heather does then - my bad。i just lack experience。This is my first book by Aurora Rey and while I liked her writing and the initial idea for the story I didn’t like how the story unfolded and most of the characters。 As it turned out - I didn’t like a lot of things。 So - why did I put it in the “it was okay-ish” and not in the “i didn’t like it” shelf？Well， weirdly， I did like it。 Kind of。I liked Bryce the most， definitely。 I liked Kates daughter， too。If I looked pass all the negative things that annoyed me the story and their little family was cute。So， yes。 This wasn’t something I enjoyed but I almost always encourage someone to read it themselves since everyone’s opinions are different。 And I’m doing it now， too。 This book probably just wasn’t my cup of tea。ARC provided in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

I usually have no issues picking up one of Rey’s books because I know I’m going to enjoy it， and it was no different with You Again。However， what I did have an issue with was the main conflict and the way it was handled。 It’s difficult to talk about without including spoilers but the way any blame at all was put on Sutton didn’t sit well with me in the slightest。This in turn ruined my enjoyment of Kate’s character。 I found her selfish and unwilling to even remotely consider that it might have be I usually have no issues picking up one of Rey’s books because I know I’m going to enjoy it， and it was no different with You Again。However， what I did have an issue with was the main conflict and the way it was handled。 It’s difficult to talk about without including spoilers but the way any blame at all was put on Sutton didn’t sit well with me in the slightest。This in turn ruined my enjoyment of Kate’s character。 I found her selfish and unwilling to even remotely consider that it might have been her fault。 The story itself was fine， I love a good second chance romance。 It was paced relatively well and the conclusion was satisfactory。I don’t think the characters had as much chemistry as some of Rey’s other couples， the dialogue felt a little forced occasionally。However， it was a relatively light afternoon read， not one I’d pick up again though I don’t think。 。。。more

4*I've read a fair few books by Aurora Rey and all have been exceptionally good， this book isn't any different from her other reads， it's a good read。 I love the charm that the characters seem to have and how the chemistry flows between the main characters with ease。 'You again' is about second chances and about going back home to your home town， these 2 factors made it a hit for me。 I love a good second chance at romance。 Although this isn't my favorite by Aurora Rey I still enjoyed it。Sometime 4*I've read a fair few books by Aurora Rey and all have been exceptionally good， this book isn't any different from her other reads， it's a good read。 I love the charm that the characters seem to have and how the chemistry flows between the main characters with ease。 'You again' is about second chances and about going back home to your home town， these 2 factors made it a hit for me。 I love a good second chance at romance。 Although this isn't my favorite by Aurora Rey I still enjoyed it。Sometimes， a second chance appears when you least expect it。 Kate Cormier always thought she would love Sutton Guidry forever。 But after making a bad chance， things ended， Kate moved on， building a new life for her and her daughter。 Nowadays， kate doesn't have dreams。 That is until Sutton comes home， acting like she never left and looking more attractive than ever。Sutton has spent a decade away from her childhood home， avoiding her first love， and the girl who broke her heart。 She's got a career， but her life which goes with it， isn't very impressive。 She moves back to her hometown when her dad needs surgery， to help him recover， but she realizes she will need to face her past eventually。 But with so many pieces of her life still there， including the love of her life， Kate， she finds it difficult trying not to imagine trying again with kate。。I was given a copy for an honest review。 。。。more
