** spoiler alert ** This series just gets better and better, with each new installment. :)

Roe's had a really tough year. She's been gripped with grief and loneliness after losing her husband, Martin, to a heart attack. The home he purchased for her as a gift--because she instantly fell in love with it--now feels empty and cold. The life she enjoyed is nothing but a struggle, and everyone keeps bugging her about the movie people who are taking Lawrenceton by storm.

Of course, Roe doesn't want anything to do with it because the movie is actually based on real life events, things that happened to Roe. And the book it's based on happened to be written by an old friend of hers, Robin Crusoe. Robin's return to town brings with it a new lease of life for Roe, a welcome distraction, and a new murder-mystery...

I liked the character of Robin Crusoe way back in the first book, so seeing him back in Roe's life was great. I was very glad to see him again. The chemistry between them is just too strong to keep them apart.

Last Scene Alive is another excellent addition to this already awesome series. I love spending time with Roe, and joining her while she tried to get over the death of her husband and find her way back to her own life was heartwarming. Although, it's not easy and leads to some unexpected dangers along the way.

I loved it, and now I only have one more book left to read. :(
