A really great story between Nick and Mia. A first book from this author and it won’t be my last. Couldn’t put it down. Loved every minute of it!!

This was my first time reading this author. Our Last Chance features Mia who is a lawyer returning to her small town after her father falls ill. She happens to be the new lawyer for the hospital Nick works at. Not only is he an ex he also used to be her brothers best friend until he learned of their relationship . Even though her brother Eli cut Nick out Nick still keeps tabs on their father.

The hospital has a strict policy about relationships between staff and admin. Eli is also set against them reconnecting. He’s got some deep rooted anger directed straight at Nick, it seems rather intense even though it’s been four years.

The past is a little too tempting and despite the obstacles in their way Mia and Nick can’t help themselves. Not only do the still have a strong physical attraction they realize they still love one another, in fact they’ve only even loved each other and that way all their other relationships have failed.

The characters are well developed, I enjoyed the attention to the smaller details in their relationships. All the supporting characters played their own roles and didn’t just feel like filler. This story was an enjoyable way to spend a couple hours.

Four years ago Nick and Mia were in love and were going to start a future together but then Mia’s older brother, Eli, caught them and threw a giant hissy fit. They ended their relationship and Mia went on to the big city to pursue her career in law while Nick went back home to their small town to become an ER doctor. Present day Mia comes home to be near her father since his Parkinson’s is getting worse. She is hired to work at the inhouse counsel for the hospital that Nick works at. Drama ensues because neither one is really over the other.

I really struggled with this one. Everything felt forced to me. I am not sure what it was really but I just didn’t feel like anything flowed naturally. I am all for steam in a book but it just seemed like that was all there was between Nick and Mia. I didn’t really get an substance between them. The story line had great potential and I really respected that it was more than just a romance novel, the suspense aspect of the story was great but it was never ending. I am a paralegal and I know that investigations sometimes take time but Nick and Mia just seemed to keep saying/thinking the same things over and over. And then the blurb with the accidental pregnancy? That was totally unnecessary to have in the blurb since it wasn’t even mentioned until the epilogue. Extremely misleading for those who jump at accidental pregnancy books (me, that’s me). I feel bad with this review since I did feel like I needed to know what happened and was intrigued the entire time but it just didn’t hit me with the feels.

I found myself thinking about the characters and anticipating when I could get back home to find out what happens next. For me that’s a good sign of a good book. I loved everything about the book and I’m glad that I was introduced to this author.

I received this book with the understanding that I could leave a voluntary and honest review.

In this book we meet Mia Parker and Nick Foster. Mia and Nick are college friends turned into something more. That ended in college though when after they had sex for the first and only time her brother came in and ruined it all. The two were never the same after that and after all the discussion about returning to their hometown they ended up going separate ways. Mia ended up in the city working as a lawyer like she always dreamed and Nick well Nick came home and became a doctor. Little did they know years later they would both be in this small town again. At first neither can believe their luck that the one person they can’t get over is there only for them to realize that one person is still unattainable. Will these two find their HEA or will the hurtles of the past become hurtles in the present that will still keep them apart?

This is an amazing story by this author. These characters become almost like people you know in your real life. There are twists and turns that will have you on the edge of your seat. There is so much more I want to tell you. However I don’t want to ruin the story for any other readers. I will say this has romance, intrigue, and moments you will want to slap someone. I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.

This is a great story with wonderful characters that once I started I didn’t want to stop. This is the first book I’ve read from this writer & it won’t be the last.

Steamy second chance between former small town lovers
I’m usually not into second chance romance but this one was really quite good. Mia Parker and Dr. Nick Foster had been together during their graduate school years until Nick’s BFF Eli who also happened to be Mia’s brother found out. For some reason Eli began his hatred of Nick from that moment on and that hatred proves to be detrimental into this story.
Mia has come home from her “big city” job as an attorney to help with her ill father. Wow! The fireworks when she meets up again with the handsome and cocky ER physician, Dr. Nick Foster. They can’t help themselves. Whenever they are together…yep, more fireworks, whether on the sofa, over her desk and even in a bed!
What happens when Nick has an unfortunate event occur in the ER to a well-beloved member of this little town? Fireworks, but of a very different sort. This story rings so true to a small town love relationship when everybody thinks they have a say, positive or negative. Great characters. I had a hard time liking Eli b/c Ms. Williams wrote him so despicably well;-) The altercation in chapter 29 was a fist pump moment for me. And, there was a very touching scene at the cemetery. Best darn ending ever!
I volunteered to review an ARC of this book through Booksprout and it comes highly recommended. I give it 4.5 deliciously steamy, poignant and witty stars.

A wonderful read
