Synopsis:
After graduating from Bowler University, the last place Cam Ruiz ever expected to find himself is his hometown. A bad job as a bouncer and worry over his mom’s health make living in Paradise anything but. There’s only one thing that can make his return any harder—running into the only girl he’s ever loved.
Tate Ellison made a mistake when she was eighteen, one that cost her the best thing she’s ever had. She’s always hoped the regret of losing Cam would fade over time. Too bad it’s only grown. She took comfort in the fact she’d never have to face him again, so his presence in Paradise throws her for a loop.
The pull between them is instant and when the truth of what happened years ago tumbles out, they share a mind-blowing kiss...which leads to more. But the past has a way of repeating itself. When all the cards are on the table, Cam and Tate must decide what they are willing to do to make it last.
Review:
Who doesn't love a second chance romance story? Make it Last is just
that and maybe a little more! I loved being able to go into the lives of
the main characters, Cam and Tate. I think as individual characters,
they were pretty awesome.
Cam had his heart broken by the love
of his life when she decided to go ahead and chest on him. He did what
anyone in that situation would do; he left their small town and never
looked back. Now he's back due to his mom being sick. What he didn't
expect to find was Tate.
Tate broke the heart of the only man
she ever loved. While he was off getting an education and having a
different girl on his arm in Facebook pictures, Tate was at home taking care
of her father who had cancer and her teenage brother, Jamie. Life has
not been easy for Tate. In fact, it's been the opposite.
When
the two face to face for the first time after all these years, sparks
fly. You can't stop love and chemistry from happening no matter how much
you try the exact opposite. Will the two ever be able to let go of the
past?
Make it Last is as heartfelt as it is endearing. I fell in
love with not only the characters but the storyline as well. Tate has
had such a tough few years that have made her strong beyond belief. Even
if she doesn't believe in herself, she's doing all she can to take care
of her family and that right there is so admirable. How many people
would give up everything to take care of a family member? Maybe that's
the wrong question because I know that question is easy for me. I would
give up anything to take care of those I love. Cam is also in the same
boat as Tate but the only difference is, is that he left. He got his
education and now a big hot shot company up in New York wants him.
And
what's stopping him? It's not like there could possibly be anything
more between him and Tate. Right? Well, looks like you'll just have to
read to find out.
Overall, I fully recommend reading this book
because it's funny, romantic, and yeah I admit, a certain scene really
made me tear up. What more could you want from a book?! Oh and there are
some sexy scenes. Hah!
4 Stars
