Plagued by past mistakes in both love and life, Quinn Bardot is in a bad place. With nowhere else to turn, she escapes to LA clinging to the promise of a fresh start.
Chase Crowley is known for being selfish and unbelievably persistent. All he's ever wanted is to become a successful actor. But now that he is about to have it all, he finds that something is still missing. Money and fame isn't what he expected.
After a fervent encounter, the two of them are thrown into a situation that neither is prepared for. Can Quinn extinguish her fears and let Chase in? Can Chase learn to put someone else's needs before his own?
The Last Thing is a novel all about love, Hollywood, and accepting what life throws at you even if it is the last thing you want.

REVIEW BY NADIA CHIEF OBSESSIVE PIMPETTE
***Obsessed by books arc given in exchange for an honest review***
"Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end."
Beautifully written, heart warming read that covers many subjects such as depression, sucide and bullying. It is the story of Quinn who has lived through a tradegy and has decoded to move to Hollywood to start fresh with her cousin Ginger, an upcoming starlet in a soap opera. Ginger encourages her to live and at a party she encounters Chase. He is a child star now chasing the A list and yet he falls in insta-lust with a gorgeous girl in an old pair of high tops.
Quinn struggles with this, unable to let go of her past demons.
"I wanted him to know. I wasn't like the other girls in there. I wasn't an actor. In my own way, I guess I was trying to warn him. I was broken. Empty inside."
"I wanted him to know. I wasn't like the other girls in there. I wasn't an actor. In my own way, I guess I was trying to warn him. I was broken. Empty inside."
The story slowly reveals their pasts and with a few dramas along the way this book captivated me from the first chapter. I connected with Quinn and rejoiced when she decided to rejoin the world. Chase is a sexy man and I loved reading how he evolved into more than just a fame hungry stereotype. Ginger added humour and I hope she will one day get her own story...hint hint!
I really enjoyed this romance and loved the style in which it was written. An inspiring upbeat story that shows love is a great healer.
