Last Chance Seduction is Lexington Montgomery's happily ever after. Lex is the adopted son of Beckett Montgomery and Eliza Wilder Montgomery; it was actually shocking to me once I realized who his parents were as it feels like just yesterday Eliza and Beckett were earning their own happily ever after and adopting new additions to the Wilder/Montgomery clan.
Synopsis:
Mercy's story is one of great emotion, having lost both her parents at a relatively young age, she was left at the alter on her wedding day and on that same day her twin sister fell terminally ill. After moving away from Colorado and allowing herself to take two years to grieve, Mercy has come home. She has no family to rely on and only a handful of close friends, most of whom live long distances away. It was quite the surprise when she learned her new neighbor was Lexington Montgomery. And their re-introduction wasn't the greatest. Lex is remodeling and all the construction is quite disruptive to Mercy's personal business.
Lex has secretly had feelings for Mercy since they were children and she for him. A close friend of Lex's swooped in and claimed Mercy as his own first. What was a best friend to do except step back and let two people he cared for greatly have their chance at love. As a leading member of one of the up and rising Montgomery construction businesses, he puts his all in getting the biggest get. Unfortunately that leads to faking a relationship with Mercy to make a good impression on a potential client who looks favorable on those in a committed relationship. It doesn't take long for the fake relationship to become something more.
I love, love, love that Eliza Wilder-Montgomery came in full force and embraced Mercy as one of her own, regardless of whether or not Lexington had feelings for Mercy. It was impossible to not cheer for Mercy to find some wonderfulness for herself and Eliza and Brooklyn, Lexington's cousin and business partner, were a support system Mercy didn't realize she needed. I loved everything about Mercy, she is a successful narrator for audio books, she is an introvert, has a cat named Mr. Darcy, she even references the most wonderful scene from Pride and Prejudice. Lexington is a little overbearing at times, an extreme alpha male, but ultimately, like most Montgomery's, he understands what it takes to make a person happy. Another great installment to the Montgomery Legacy.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
