[PREORDER] First Love Last Love

For fans of Daisy Jones and A Star is Born, Adele Griffin's First Love Last Love is a deeply romantic, emotionally sweeping novel about first love, fame, and the long road to finding yourself—even if it takes a lifetime.

Vida Jamison has spent years building a life she can count on—steady job, solid marriage, a teenage son who still occasionally lets her hug him. But all it takes is a winter storm, a grocery run, and a familiar voice speaking her full name—Vida Marie—to turn certainty into quicksand. Elijah Beck, her first love and most enduring wildcard, is back. Rock star, Grammy nominee, a walking tabloid headline, and the one person who has always known how to get under her skin. He swears he’s here to fix what’s broken—maybe himself, maybe them. But when a collision, both literal and emotional, lands them in the hospital, Vida has to face the question she’s spent two decades avoiding: Is Elijah her greatest mistake, or the love she was always meant to find again? Because first love doesn’t always fade. It imprints and echoes. Sometimes, it waits. Elijah, for all his talent and magnetism, has spent a lifetime being wanted but never quite held—by the industry that made him famous, by the people who adored him from a safe distance. Once, Vida never looked away. As children, they spoke in a language only they knew. As teenagers, they built a world inside the walls of Sparrowbank, the house where Elijah's mother took Vida in when she needed it most. And now, time seems to fold in on itself, the years collapsing between them, as if no distance ever existed at all. Against all odds, here they are again, locked in the same charged pull—part history, part heartbreak, in a half-written song neither knows how to finish. But nostalgia is a tricky thing. The past can pull you under just as easily as it can set you free—and this time, they might not have a choice.
