[ARC REVIEW] “Their Last Resort” by: R.S. Grey

Romcom queen R.S. Grey is back with a brand new lighthearted romance read, just in time for summer!

What is Their Last Resort by R.S. Grey about?

Biting banter is all they know. But messy feelings have a way of coming to the surface in this beachside romance from USA Today bestselling author R.S. Grey.

Paige Young and Cole Clark are polar opposites. A world traveler since birth, Paige loves to lead activities for guests at a luxury island resort in Turks and Caicos. From bingo nights to cliffside hikes, Paige is up for anything. Cole, meanwhile, prefers his number-crunching desk job. He’s the assistant director at the resort—stiff and meticulous. He’s so by the book that he keeps the book. In his desk drawer.

They’re perfectly aligned in one way, though—their ability to drive each other crazy. Every day brings a fresh battle of wits. They’re rivals, archnemeses…and they’re definitely never going to talk about that one time they kissed. Ha ha. Nope!

But when Paige finds out that Cole has been ordered to fire her on the same day a hurricane threatens their little slice of paradise, it’s clear the game is over.

At odds, in peril, and forced to shelter in place together, these two enemies might finally have to confront their true feelings. (You know, the ones hidden under all those withering looks.)

Rating: 4/5 Stars

Review:

“Their Last Resort” is another fun rivals to lovers romance from R.S. Grey! Rachel is the queen of romcoms, and is an auto read author for me. It’s been a hot minute since she wrote in a tropical location (not that “A Place in the Sun” was really tropical, but just go with it), so that was an interesting background to set the story at, and it added to the plot.

The book didn’t strike me as being all that different from her other romcoms, but I didn’t really expect it to be going in. It’s a relatively quick read, only about 250 pages, and was an enjoyable read overall. It contains a lot of tropes that we all know and love, such as he falls first and only one bed. It’s meant to be a fun little escape, and I think it accomplishes that.

If you like this one, I’d highly recommend reading another one of her books, “Enemies Abroad,” as I really loved that you and it contains a lot of the same tropes!

Special thanks to Greys Promotions and Netgalley for the ARC!
