And One Last Thing...

Resumen del Editor

Lacey Terwilliger's shock and humiliation over her husband's philandering prompt her to add some bonus material to Mike's company newsletter: stunning Technicolor descriptions of the special brand of "administrative support" his receptionist gives him. The detailed mass e-mail to Mike's family, friends, and clients blows up in her face, and before one can say "instant urban legend", Lacey has become the pariah of her small Kentucky town, a media punch line, and the defendant in Mike's defamation lawsuit.

Her seemingly perfect life up in flames, Lacey retreats to her family's lakeside cabin, only to encounter an aggravating neighbor named Monroe. A hunky crime novelist with a low tolerance for drama, Monroe is not thrilled about a newly divorced woman moving in next door. But with time, beer, and a screen door to the nose, a cautious friendship develops into something infinitely more satisfying.

Lacey has to make a decision about her long-term living arrangements, though. Should she take a job writing caustic divorce newsletters for paying clients, or move on with her own life, pursuing more literary aspirations? Can she find happiness with a man who tells her what he thinks and not what she wants to hear? And will she ever be able to resist saying one... last... thing?

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Harper brings her trademark humor and biting social comedy to this hilarious tale of heartbreak and romance, a novel that should be on the summer reading list of every woman who has been wronged." ( Booklist)

Women’s empowerment

Thanks Facebook was great because all of us think about doing things without thinking and she does and learns from it and grows manages to turn her life around in a good positive way I think that we need more positive examples for our younger generation all of us think about being spiteful but there’s always a consequence. Love this pic of the ending part of it seemed a little wordy but, in the end it’s an absolutely wonderful but love the brother and his family just really well grounded
Recommend this to anyone

Enjoyable

I really enjoyed the writing and spot on narration of this book. I am now curious about other books from this author.

Worth several listens!

I did laugh out loud many times the first time I read this. Then I forgot about it for a couple of years. Suddenly I found myself wanting a book to listen to which would make me laugh and Molly Harper's And One Last Thing came back to me. Since then I have read it several times, laughing out loud at most of the same lines each time. I love the main character!
There are very few books which I re-read. Mostly I listen to Georgette Heyer's Regency books, The Reluctant Widow, Frederica, The Black Sheep, A Woman of Quality, once a year as they have witty dialogue. And there are several of Rex Stout's Nero Wolfe books which I listen to yearly, also. Caroline Brown's The Ladies Room is also on my listen to yearly list, due to the main character's growth & development, and the clever story.
When I consider the why of listening to these books many times over, it becomes clear that dialogue & interesting story telling are the main reasons, with a dash of humour in them all. There are many great story tellers on audible, but sometimes a narrator causes a distraction from the story, or there is just too much graphic sex. Kristen Ashley writes great stories. But the graphic sex tends to distract from the enjoyment of the character development and the good story telling. I especially liked Ashley's The Burg series, the Rock Chick series, the Colorado Mountain series, the Moonlight & Motor oil series and a few stand alone books like Heaven & Hell, and Soaring. However, I do wish for an auto forward to be available to skip the sex scenes!
Having been an Audible customer for ten years I can admit that the majority of books are hardly worth the first listen. However, there are many worth a second listen. And there are the rare treasures which can be listened to yearly. I appreciate that Audible makes an effort to record older book series for those of us who like to revisit old friends!

Made me laugh

Loved it! I found it hilarious and real! Even with a heavy topic of infidelity the writer brought great humor to it and the character did what many have wished they could do. Revenge!

when you need to grow up

it was a easy listen. great for those who can relate to the main character.

heheheheh......what a fun time!

Molly and Amanda have once again entertained to the last page! Keep up the wonderful work!

Fun!!

Lots of laugh out loud moments. Fun read!! Good performance. Will likely listen to it again down the road.

love Molly Harper

I love the way Molly Harper tells a story. They are always funny, and lighthearted! and love to listen to Amanda Ronconi tell a story!

Harper and Ronconi are a great time

Love Harper's sass and story telling. Ronconi has a great voice to bring the characters to life

A Blast!!!

Loved the reader, the story and the characters. Had quite a few laugh out loud moments. Okay, we’re dealing with an ugly divorce and the resultant changes the main character makes in her life. Her journey is light enough not to bring you down, serious enough for a “shark” as an attorney - and sprinkled with romance. Just a little gem of a book!
