Losing my father wasn’t the hardest part of going home… to.
Being there means there’s no chance of avoiding Zac or hiding my broken heart. Then I discover all the things my friends never told me. Zac having a kid with my former best female friend seems like the biggest. But I’m wrong.
Sticking to my plan of taking care of Dad’s estate and leaving this town behind me is going to be harder than I thought. They forgot about me. Can I forgive that or all the secrets they’ve kept hidden?

As much I didn’t like the secrets kept from Laney, especially Zac, I understand the why it needed to happen that way. The way the story is written, it really gets you sucked in. You can’t help but learn right alongside Laney what everyone else knew. It’s hurtful but she is a good person and the growth and strength it takes to forgive, is amazing.

Most of this story was very emotional, I’ve even shed some tears remembering the loss of a parent and the how seems like everyone keeps things from you that when you do eventually learn about it that others already knew, hurts. As the ending, Laynie goes back to to her mom’s before the start of college after making up and moving her relationship with Zac along, but did she go back home like she promised?
The Last Good Thing is a sweet second chance love story! It has all the components of a cute romance with a tinge of sadness. I was so glad it ended as it did, despite all the misunderstandings. Personally, I would have loved a little more details about Laney’s relationship with Maddie and more about her feelings regarding her father, but that’s just me wanting so much more! I can’t wait to see what happens with the series.

The Last Good Thing
The Fallout Series 1
by Heather Young-Nichols
Laney Douglas never meant to return to her old town, East Branch. But, life being what it is, she had to return to close up her father’s house since his death. When she had moved away with her mother after the divorce, she had to leave all her friends and memories as well. Now, she as work to do as well as mourning her father. Almost as soon as she arrives though, she runs into her old best friend Zac Walsh. My have things changed in the relatively short time she’s been gone! We get a good glimpse into the relationship of Laney and Zac, plus, the third in the group, Maddie Preston. In friendship, groups of three seldom work out for the best, and this certainly is a case in point! Wow, as usual, up front honesty and transparency could have saved so much time and useless angst, but, then we wouldn’t have this entrancing book! Good story with good, sympathetic (mostly) characters.

I really enjoyed Heather Young-Nichols new series “Last Good Thing”. I recieved a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review – but I would have gladly paid full price. This is a great author who writes engaging characters and entertaining story lines full of laughter, witty dialogue with just the right amount of drama and steamy scenes to keep things interesting.
I’ve been a big fan of several of her other series and this one is not the exact same – but has the same look and feel to it. I’m hooked already and can’t wait to read the next book in the series!
Great addition to your book collection.
Happy Reading…enjoy!
This was a good second chance/friends to lovers romance and a great book to curl up with on a lazy afternoon. I liked Zac and Laney they were good characters and I enjoyed getting to know them they did have some issues to work through though, I ended up reading this in one afternoon I really enjoyed it.
Last Good Thing is a second chance romance that will leave you feeling faint. Secrets revealed in tiers throughout the narrative sprinkling bombshells to the end. Small town vibes, relishable characters and cheerful unfolding.
