It wouldn't be summer without the Watermelon
Festival, and single mom Amanda Wright is looking forward to a carefree day
eating funnel cakes and sipping sweet tea. But with her inquisitive son and
elderly grandmother in tow, she's not in the mood for carnival rides or the
kissing booth, until she hears a charming, funny voice over the loudspeaker.
Grant Trumbull is the new DJ at the local radio station, and his deep, booming cadence has all the ladies of the church auxillary atwitter. Even without seeing his face, Amanda can't help but wonder if he's the one for her. When she finally comes face to face with the man behind the mic, summer is about to get a whole lot hotter in little Last Chance, South Carolina.

I was attracted to the short story Last
Chance Summer by the promise of a short, sweet summer read, and this story
certainly fulfilled my expectations—in fact, it exceeded them. This is the kind of story where you can
predict the outcome from the first page, the events aren’t entirely realistic,
and the storyline gets a little sappy…but I didn’t care. The story made me feel like I was
experiencing a summer festival in a small town, and it put a huge smile on my
face. Ramsay’s writing was so smooth and
charming, and she painted her setting and characters very well, especially
considering the confines of the short story length. I am now very eager to try out the
full-length Last Chance novels!
I received this book from the publisher and NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
