The Last Boyfriend by J.S. Cooper Review

                                      
Blurb:

***New York Times and USA TODAY Bestseller***
Lucky Morgan has had her share of heartbreak. She is devastated when her boyfriend dumps her after sleeping with him and she vows to herself that she won't be used again. She decides that the next guy she dates and sleeps with, will be her one true love.

Zane Beaumont is the mysterious and snooty guy that comes into her diner every Friday night with a different girl. He's the type of guy she's learned to avoid: carefree, fast, handsome, rich, and sarcastic. Unfortunately, she can't stop thinking about the devilish gleam in his eyes.

When Lucky's car breaks down one night after a party, it is Zane who comes to her rescue. As Zane attempts to sweep Lucky off of her feet, she soon realizes that nothing is as it seems and that Zane may very well be the guy for whom she changes the rules. That is until she meets Braydon.

New Adult Contemporary Romance **Mature Content** Recommended for ages 17+ due to sexual situations and language.

Review

Well first off, the guy on the cover is HOTT!!! I think it's his eyes, they draw you in and it's hard to look away. And the shaggy hair that you want to put your fingers through. And now I'm drooling ;)

We start off with Lucky who is a student and waitress. She has the coolest name ever! Well Zane is a regular in her section, he comes in with a new date every Friday. Lucky finds him dreamy but he fits everything she vowed to stay away from. She wants the next one to be her last. 

After a party Lucky's car breaks down and of course Zane comes to the rescue whether she wants him there or not. She fight her attraction because he is a heartbreak waiting to happen and she doesn't think she is strong enough to survive after losing her parents then her boyfriend. But after accepting a job as his assistant for a documentary, she finds him hard to resist. She thinks she could be the one he breaks his rules for as she did him, no matter how many times he tells her otherwise.

Zane isn't the only one after Lucky though, Braydon doesn't give up. Things get sticky and confusing for Lucky because no one gives her straight answers and there is an unspoken tension. Brandon seems open to love while Zane is so closed off. 

You learn about the different characters and why they are the way there are. We learn about taking chances so we never live with regrets. It's better to have loved and lost than never loved at all!

I was deeply consumed by Lucky, she is so lovable and I found myself reaching for tissues at times. This was a great read and I cannot wait for book 2 (which is waiting and calling my name)!

This was my first full novel by J.S. Cooper. I found myself acting more after reading her anthology, Summer Fling, with; Jessica wood, Suzi Case, Helen Cooper, and Chloe Harrison. I am excited to read everything she's written so keep looking out for more reviews! 

Rating 5 stars

Cheers, 
Erika
