Again the Magic, by historical queen Lisa Kleypas, is a gorgeous historical romance that'll transport you to another time and place while tearing your heart out.

Aline Marsden and John McKenna are childhood friends who reconnect after years apart and realize they've been in love all along. There's tons of drama, including societal pressure and family expectations, but their chemistry is off the charts.

It has Kleypas' gorgeous writing, swoon-worthy romance, and plenty of tension.

From Katherine's list on second-chance romance.

If you’re a historical romance fan, you already know there’s something special about Lisa Kleypas’s writing, and this book is one of my favorites. Aline and McKenna are from vastly different worlds, and they’re so in love it hurts. The only way they can protect each other seems to be to push each other away, but the longing is always there, simmering beneath the surface. Magic, indeed.
