The summer after graduation was supposed to be simple. One last chance to soak up the lake, their hometown, and the life they’ve always known. But for Hannah Clark and Ford Cross, nothing about this summer has been simple.
They survived high school, secrets, and second chances. They exchanged vows in secret, only to promise them again before family and friends. Now—with forever stretching out ahead of them—it’s time to say goodbye to Lake City High and step into what comes next.
Between one last lake house weekend, a wedding celebration that feels like magic, and a bittersweet send-off with the people they love most, Hannah and Ford discover that love isn’t the ending to their story. It’s the beginning.
Full of romance, laughter, friendship, and the ache of growing up, One Last Summer is the heartfelt conclusion to the Lake City High Series. Perfect for fans of small-town first loves and emotional coming-of-age romance, Hannah and Ford’s story will leave you smiling, crying, and believing in forever.
This book had the same writing/spelling errors as the first 4. I guess I thought they would have worked harder on that. Sometimes it really takes me out of the moment trying to figure out what's happening. Lily is Ford's mom but then it says "better listen to your best friend" Jack's last name is Fitzpatrick but then it says Jack Oliver. Oliver was her birth mom's parents but then they were Beth's parents?! "I'll be the one in the black suit" No you won't! I read about the baby blue suit outfit for multiple pages!
Overall a fun read. I think this one was 100 pages too long. By the time the wedding was happening I was over it. If I had to read "this is exactly what we needed" one more time I would have been extra over this book! I feel like this could have been a mini book to see them through the wedding and the life change.
3 stars because it was fun to continue the journey but had errors and was too long.

I enjoyed the other books in this series so I had high hopes for this book but it fell short. I felt like it could have been 100 pages shorter as most chapters were just repeating the same idea such as people professing how much they loved each other, how life was just great, and when a problem came up mom and Dad just threw money at it and it was fixed. I kept waiting for a big twist but nothing ever came. There were a lot of missed opportunities in this book.
