At Long Last
At Long Last: A Laurel Creek Romance, by W.S. Carmichael 
Blurb:Jenni Lynn Scott is a successful, single mother. She’s funny and independent, has a good relationship with her ex-husband and the greatest best friend a girl could ask for. So what if she’s a little lonely now and then? She loves her life – mostly. Dylan Montgomery enjoys his carefree life, drifting from town to town. He has a thriving business flipping houses, and can’t imagine being tied down to one place. Jenni Lynn hasn’t seen or heard from Dylan in fifteen years. They were best friends until the devastating destruction of his family forced him to leave town. He cut off all contact without explanation or apology. Naturally, she’s shocked (and maybe just a little angry) when he returns to Laurel Creek to help care for his grandmother. She’s even more shocked to discover the tall, lanky boy she remembers has transformed into one of the sexiest men she’s ever seen. Reconnecting with Jenni Lynn has been both a blessing and a curse. A blessing, because Dylan is finally able to bring closure to his greatest regret - abandoning Jenni Lynn. A curse, because while they’ve been rekindling their friendship, she’s ignited a fiery passion inside of Dylan that is quickly burning out of control. I'm so torn as I write this review. On the one hand, this is a light, fun, cute romance with the added bonus of some really well written sex scenes. On the other, I just don't like storylines where the plot hinges on a misunderstanding blown out of proportion as the main drama... I was loving this book and totally hooked - the writing is engaging and the characters where relatable - until the big misunderstanding. From then on I sort of lost interest for a while before I was able to get back into it. However, it was still a good story and I did enjoy reading it - I'm also eager to read Emma's story, because she really interested me.
My favourite quotes from 'At Long Last':'... rather grieve a love lost than to never have had him.' 'I had Jase and my priorities changed. Making a name for myself wasn't as important as making a good life for him.''As her best friend, it's my job to walk the fine line of giving her my honest opinion while being supportive, even if I one hundred percent, wholeheartedly disagree with her decisions.'
