Blurb:
Opposites attract when a real estate developer's quest for a
promotion returns her to the coastal hometown she loathes—where she's reunited
with her teenage crush turned town golden boy.
There’s no place like home…and that’s exactly how real estate developer
Samantha Leigh plans to keep it. When she ditched Rock Island, Florida for New
York City, Sam left everything behind—her alcoholic mother, the high school
bullies, her ex-best friend, and her first crush, Austin Marcs.
She’s never looked back—until her boss ambushes her with an extended assignment
on Rock Island, where promotion will be on the line. Sam has no choice but to
book a flight home . . .
. . . to where nothing has changed. Her mom still drinks, the mean girls became
mean-girl mommies, and Austin? The town’s golden boy is now its favorite
ferryboat captain—still smoking hot, inexplicably devoted to the island, and
Sam’s total opposite in every way. He insists Rock Island is perfect as is,
without her big corporate ideas, and he’s determined to prove it. Before long,
Austin’s personal tours of sandy beaches and swoony sunsets almost make Sam
forget her hometown hate. But is falling for the guy—and the town—she left
behind worth the risk?
My review:
As a Last Resort by Kristin Wollett is a delightful rom-com by
an exciting new author.
This story has our leading lady struggling against the good
old boys club at work and just trying to get by. When a job assignment has her
going back to Florida and the small town she grew up in. Sam is less than
thrilled.
Austin is Sam’s former BFF’s older brother and the boy she had
a crush on throughout her teens. Austin is a thoroughly nice guy and unlike the
guys Sam knows in New York.
I truly enjoyed getting to know Sam and Austin and watching
them discover what was really important in life.
