Book Review: One Last Time (Loveless Brothers #5) by Roxie Noir @RoxieNoir @jennw23

Seth Loveless has been my weakness since I was sixteen years old.

One Last Time, an all-new second chance romance with all the feels from Roxie Noir, is available now!

 

Two years ago, I moved back to my hometown. I started a business, bought a house, took up yoga, and went on hiatus from dating. Life is good.

If I never had to see Seth, it would be perfect.

After all, my history with my ex-boyfriend is anything but simple. It’s taken us years, but we’ve finally learned to live in the same town without killing each other.

Is there an elaborate set of rules governing our every casual interaction?

Yes.

Do I still think dirty, off-limits thoughts every single time I see him buying apples at the grocery store?

Of course. I’m only human, and Seth and I are practically experts at the two F’s: fighting, and…

…sleeping together.

Still, we’re managing just fine.

And then?

He shows up at my sister’s wedding. The man looks like pure sex in a suit, handsome as the devil himself and twice as charming.

Worse, he claims he’s my date.

We flirt.

We dance.

We break every one of our carefully-crafted rules, and we… should stop.

Too bad I’m having the time of my life.

I know I should end it. After all the heartbreak, hurt, and anger we can’t be more than enemies.

But Seth asks me for one more night.

Just one night.

Then, we’re back to being virtual strangers to each other.

I know I should turn him down.

I know this ends with my heart shattered into a million pieces.

I know lunacy is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

But I’ve always been bad at resisting a weakness.

One Last Time is a standalone romantic comedy and the final book in the Loveless Brothers series.

Favorite Quotes:

 

Does she… know? That Seth is the town bicycle and everyone’s taken a ride?

 

What if it turns out that he’s deep in some pyramid scheme and he spends the entire time trying to sell us essential-oil-infused leggings?

 

“Is that a sorority?” Georgia whispers. “I think it’s the Borg,” whispers back Wyatt. “Except, you know, blonde?”

 

I feel like a stadium when the lights go out. Like a concert hall when the orchestra stops tuning and suddenly plays the first note of a symphony. The background noise stops and the note swells, shifts, breaks into harmony. This is all there is.

 

My Review:

 

Wow, this was a long and passionate read full of devastating verbal warfare and heart-stopping sensual scenes that made my mouth go dry. I kid you not – am seriously dehydrated! This couple had a toxic and complicated dynamic and were essentially – a trash fire. But man-oh-man, this author can tell a story! She reeled me in despite there being far more conflict and angst than I am normally comfortable with. However, I was willing to tolerate the tension given the delicate balance of wicked humor, clever wit, and amusing family exchanges, as well as their tender underlying soul-deep love for each other that made them ever so vulnerable to the mortal combat they seemed destined to unleash on each other. Oh, and raccoons! Loves me some cute “varmints.”

I wasn’t convinced I could fully appreciate these characters based on the two previous books from this series I recently devoured. I had major concerns going in with Delilah, and rightly so, she was quite vicious and cruel in her behaviors and raging arguments, but Seth was no slouch in that arena either. They had volcanic sexual chemistry but couldn’t keep their incendiary tempers and pernicious tongues in check, which repeatedly resulted in the push/pull type of poisonous relationships that immature people excel in, and while theirs was quite lethal, it was also worth the fight. I am now even more curious about the first two books that I have yet to peruse. I do believe I have developed a Roxie Noir addiction as I fell hard for her exceptionally enticing family of sexy brothers.
