I liked the premise of the story, about Quinn moving away from a painful past, starting anew and building a life without remorse. But these things took her awhile to accept and accomplish. Meeting Chase and falling in live with him wasn't part of her plans, but somehow, he fit perfectly in her new life. But Chase being a celebrity wasn't making things easy for her. On the contrary, their union brought about something that might just put an end to Chase's career. Oh, what a complication it was!

The Last Thing, an interesting read and characters.
The way the story started is good.
I love how it captured my interest from the start up to the last.
The characters are good.
Both Quinn and Chase are easy to love and relate with.
What I love most about this book is that it's easy to get attached to the story and the characters emotions are easily felt.
I sometimes don't like Chase but as the story goes, I started to like him more and more.

Wow, The Last Thing is a great story. I was definitely pleasantly surprised. I'm not sure what I expected of this book but it was way better than I excepted.
Quinn is a great strong character. She has had a tragedy in the pass and is having difficulty dealing with it. We find out pretty quickly in the book that Bash was a boyfriend but we slowly find out what happened between Quinn and Bash. Wow, Bash and Quinn's story is crazy and heart wrenching. Learning about their relationship enhanced my a ...more

This story could well be about when life empties you, it always brings hope afterwards.
The most unlikely couple get together for one night. It's unbridled desire to forget the horror from the past for Quinn, and it's a strong pull for Chase. They don't want to date , but an undercurrent of emotion doesn't let them forget what they could become together if they allowed it to happen. It doesn't seem more than a dream though. He is so busy with his acting career and being single, and she has a huge ...more

I recieved this book free for an honest review. I was hooked from the beginning! Quinn has a past that she wants to move on from, Chase is an actor living the playboy lifestyle. The writing was great and really draws you in. I loved the storyline and how it came together. My heart was happy, my heart broke, and I had lots of butterflies. This was an amazing book!
I received this book in exchange for an honest review. This was a great Contemporary Romance that dealt with second chances, leaps of faith, trust, and the anxiety of being in the public eye. Quinn's cousin Ginger is an actress and when Quinn goes to see her the last thing she wants is to be in the public eye. Her past haunts her and she wants to put it as far behind her as she can. The characters were well developed, the story kept me interested, and I look forward to reading more in the series

What am emotional roller coaster this book was. It had me laughing and smiling and even crying at some parts. I love Quinn and Chase and how there story plays out. This book was written with such precision. I am amazed at how they came together and stuck together threw thick and thin. Even near the end when things make you second guess it all turns out beautifully. Thank you for sharing this with me.
I was lucky enough to get to read this one as it was written! I loved seeing the storyline develop, and watch as the characters took form into who they are.
Quinn has had a rough past, one that she's hoping to escape by going to California. Little does she know that she's in for a new adventure in life, one that she wouldn't have expected!
Chase is a hottie and womanizer, but when he meets the little southern lady, he finds out that maybe his charms don't work on everyone.

Once in a while, I love to get lost into a good romance story. That may seems odd coming from a guy.. but heh I need my romance fix once in a while!!
I had the privileged to be given this book in exchange of a fair review of it; and it is what I will do. I absolutely love the way the story was written going back and forth between Quinn and Chase and given us both of their emotions and perception throughout the book. It is done beautifully and it is given an unexpected dimension this story.
