Review
At Last
by Jill Shalvis
At
Last is book 5 in the Lucky Harbor series and
I
highly recommend reading the other books in the series before reading
this one.
Otherwise you will spoil yourself.
First
sentences:
“I'm
not lost,” Amy Michaels said to the squirrel watching her from his
perch on a tree branch.
Summary:
Amy Michaels loves her new life in Lucky Harbor. A waitress in the local diner, she's looking forward to her first weekend hike through the mountains. But when a wrong turn takes her off the trail, she finds herself up close and personal with forest ranger Matt Bowers. And even though she's tempted to kiss that sexy smile right off his face, she won't make the mistake of getting involved with the town heartthrob.
A former cop whose life went south, Matt doesn't let anyone get too close. But something about the feisty beauty caught his eye the moment he first saw her in the diner. After a hot night under a starry sky, Matt can't deny their attraction-or the fact that for the first time in a long time, he feels the stirrings of something more. Now it's up to Matt to help Amy see that, no matter what is in their past, together they can build a future in Lucky Harbor.

My
opinion:
Jill
Shalvis' Lucky Harbour series is my favorite adult romance novel
series; and I'm usually careful with using the term favorite. At Last
is the fifth book in the series and the main characters are Amy
Michaels and Matt Bower whom we previously met as side characters in
Lucky in Love.
Amy is a
waitress in the local diner and pretty careful with people. She is
more of a loner and likes her life that way. Opening up to others
isn't her strong point until she arrives in Lucky Harbor where she is
basically forced to be part of a community. She found friends in
Mallory and Grace, two other chocolate loving girls with whom she can
gossip and talk about guys but really talking about her problems and
fears is something super difficult for Amy.
Matt, a
former cop and now forest ranger in Lucky Harbor, is also more of an
introverted kind of guy but something about Amy makes him feel again
and at the beginning he isn't quite sure if that's a good thing or
not.
With Matt
trying to get Amy to open up to people and especially to him and Amy
fighting and denying her attraction to the hot ranger a wonderful
love story develops and we once again have a lovely Lucky Harbor
novel that I could hardly put down.
