The Last Boyfriend, By JS Cooper

***New York Times and USA TODAY Bestseller***
Lucky Morgan has had her share of heartbreak. She is devastated when her boyfriend dumps her after sleeping with him and she vows to herself that she won't be used again. She decides that the next guy she dates and sleeps with, will be her one true love.

Zane Beaumont is the mysterious and snooty guy that comes into her diner every Friday night with a different girl. He's the type of guy she's learned to avoid: carefree, fast, handsome, rich, and sarcastic. Unfortunately, she can't stop thinking about the devilish gleam in his eyes.

When Lucky's car breaks down one night after a party, it is Zane who comes to her rescue. As Zane attempts to sweep Lucky off of her feet, she soon realizes that nothing is as it seems and that Zane may very well be the guy for whom she changes the rules. That is until she meets Braydon.

New Adult Contemporary Romance **Mature Content** Recommended for ages 17+ due to sexual situations and language.
                I have been a fan of J.S. since I first read her book Scarred because she has a different writing style than most authors that I read.  Sometimes, different isn’t always better, but in her case, she is able to make it work for her.  When it comes to this story, I think it is something that many women go through at one point in their life.

                Lucky has been down on her luck, no pun intended, when it comes to her boyfriends.  Instead of risking her heart, she had decided to make her list of rules.  Different requirements she has for her boyfriend because she had decided that her next boyfriend will be her last.  If she meets a man who fills that list, then she will date him.  Needless to say, she hasn’t met him yet.

                Then Zane enters the picture.  Not as a boyfriend, but as a customer at the diner that Lucky works at.  Even though he doesn’t do anything to show he is interested in her, Lucky can’t stop thinking about him.  In the beginning, their relationship works for them, he goes to the diner, she serves him.  But then later they decide they want something more.  The only problem, they have different ideas as to what something more is.

                When it comes to the characters in this story, the main characters were described very well.  There was no doubt about who was who.  But the secondary characters were not described as well, for instance, Leeza wasn’t that well described in my opinion.  All that I know about her is she has blonde hair and she wears tight clothes.

                Then it comes to the point where Lucky just up and left her life in Miami to go to California with Zane.  In the real world, I don’t see that happening, but then I remind myself that this is just a book.  There was just the right balance of drama and romance in this book that will keep you on your toes.  Wanting to find out who was who and what relationship they had with the other people.

                All in all, I think this was a good book, and I will read The Last Husband to find out the rest of Lucky and Zane’s story.
