This was a fun trilogy and I like Dom and Willa second best among all the couples. (It's hard to surpass Finn and Tabitha.) I like Willa a lot, I just wish she had made Dom work for it more emotionally.

Thank you to NetGalley, Avon, and the author for the eARC in exchange for my review.

A perfect ending to this delightful trilogy! Since the first book, I've wanted Dom and Willa to reconcile and this book brings them back together so well. After almost a year apart, they find themselves learning new things about one another and falling in love for all the right reasons. A beautiful depiction of how people grow and change over time and sometimes that takes being apart. This series is so fabulously spicy and the characters are marvelous. Bravo to Eva Leigh for this trio of men and their lady loves!

This was a special second-chance romance featuring an errant bridegroom, Dom Kilburn, and the woman he left at the altar nearly a year ago, Willa Ransom. (Readers of the previous two books in this series know that Dom jilting Willa on her wedding day precipitated the romances featured in The Good Girl's Guide to Rakes and How the Wallflower was Won.)

After Dom abandoned Willa, she took off for the Continent for an extended tour and he was gruff and miserable through the first two books of the series. He clearly did not miss out on their wedding day because he did not care, something that Willa's brothers--Kieran and Finn, who had helped Dom jilt her--recognized in his dour moods. They and their wives conspire to bring Dom and Willa together at a remote house party in Scotland where they are trapped for a few weeks in one another's company.

Willa is furious. Dom is repentant and willing to give her space. Yet as the circle one another in the early days of the house party, they realize that they would not have been a good fit a year ago and understood each other only superficially because they are both so guarded. As they learn more about each's others pasts and learn to trust another, a future together once again seems possible.

One of the most interesting parts of this story is how the sexual relationship between Willa and Dom begins to reflect the emotional bonds and trust they are building. This made the whole story feel cohesive, even the passionate interludes.

This was a good way to wrap up the series, and I think it will feel more meaningful to those who have already read the first two books. Kieran & Celeste and Finn & Tabitha appear throughout, and because we begin bang at the moment of Willa and Dom's heated reunion, the story will work best for readers who understand the slow build to this moment.

I’ve been eagerly awaiting to get the tea on what happened between Willa & Dom and this tender second-chance romance did not disappoint.

After successfully avoiding one another after he jilted her at the altar one year ago, both Willa and Dom are dismayed to find their siblings have conspired to get them both to attend an unconventional house party away from the prying eyes of the judgmental ton. Dom still loves Willa but thinks he can never be the man she needs and Willa holds lots of anger and unresolved hurt from the abrupt end of their relationship.

I loved the longing on both sides in the first half of this book, but their eventual reunion and resolution of the imagined conflict that separated them felt rushed. We got to see a lot of how Dom spent his time after the wedding that never happened through the first two books of this series, I would have loved to see more of Willa’s travels through this book. I also felt like the other Ransome brothers and their wives got reduced to two-dimensional characters in this book, I would have loved to see more of the four personalities that sparkled in the first two books.

But I truly loved the growth and healing that came from both of them during their time apart and I think this was a great way to end the series. Would have loved a bonus epilogue a bit into the future to tie up all three couples’ stories but maybe we will get more of these characters in the future because I loved them all!

This was the book we’ve been waiting for this whole series! The pay off was worth it, this was very well done . Dom was great, brooding and remorseful, Willa was fabulous in her anger and hurt feelings. Watching the meddling brothers was great, and the two of them try to deny their feelings was great. Well paced and very hot. My only real critique was the sex scenes went too extreme too fast. Willa went from nothing to bondage in about a chapter and it seemed a fast evolution to me.

This is *such* a good Second Chance Romance - Willa and Dom’s split featured in a previous book in the series, and Dom’s presence in those previous books showed how heartbroken and repentant he was. But, Eva Leigh (and Willa!) don’t make it easy for him. Even as his reasons for being a runaway groom are explained and apologized for, Dom and Willa both realize that the split led each of them to grow as individuals and learn even better what to love and value in each other.
Also: the book is hot, has funny meddling siblings, and features the hero groveling- what else do you need to know?
Thanks NetGalley for ARC!

I've been waiting for Dom and Willa's story since the beginning of the first book and this one didn't disappoint.

I've really been intrigued by these two and it was fun finally getting to see inside their heads. They're both stubborn and putting a brash public face on past hurts. Together they instant chemistry and I wanted to mash their faces together from the first time they're back on the page together. Of course it was fun seeing the previous couples play matchmaker and it's delightful when all three men are together.

Plot wise, it was good. There's a lot a lot a lot of push and pull and I wish we would have had a chance for more honest conversations as everything felt a bit more superficial than I wanted. Dom's reason for jilting Willa was so minor to make such a big deal over and it seemed liked there was all of this build up for a (in my opinion) WITAF reveal. However, I will say that the epilogue really nailed it for me.

Overall, this series has been so much fun and I can't wait to see what Eva comes up with next.

**Huge thanks to the publisher for providing the digital arc free of charge**

A sexy tale about two people who struggle to reveal, and therefore, be their true self. As a plus, both main characters were relatable in their need to earn the trust the other person. I look forward to reading more books by Eva Leigh.

Oh, Willa and Dom.

I have been waiting for you for so long. And I wanted it to be fire.

And it was.

Let me set the scene for Last Chance Scoundrels. I’ve reviewed the previous books, 1: A Good Girl’s Guide to Rakes and 2: How the Wallflower was Won in detail on my blog. You definitely must read those before you tackle this book, A Rogue’s Rules for Seduction. But it’s no hardship. The previous in the series are two of the best books that I’ve ever read, and Rogue’s Rules doesn’t disappoint. Since you’ve read the first two (I warned you), you know that the entire series revolves around Dominic leaving Willa at the altar, basically set in motion by Willa’s brothers (and Dom’s best friends). Well, Willa is devastated, and she’s no shrinking violet, so it’s a wonder that she didn’t hunt him down and cut off his . . . well, you get my point. But yeah, the families aren’t particularly pleased with this, and pin the blame directly on the three wild friends, brothers Kieran and Finn Ransome, and our man Dom, and they come up with an ultimatum. The three guys need to find and marry acceptable women within a year or they’re going to be cut off. Okay, so these three are pretty much Worldstar wild men, Kieran is a rake, Finn is a gambler, and Dom likes to drink and fight. They need those inheritances!

The previous books give us Kieran and Finn’s HEAs. Kieran, surprisingly, has found true love with Dom’s sister Celeste. Finn, who everyone seemed to think was stupid, but who is actually brilliant with numbers, has found Tabitha, a bluestocking wallflower nerd girl (who I absolutely LOVE). So they’re 2/3 of the way to getting their inheritances.

So, as I said, the jilting of their sister was the brothers’ idea, because they could see that neither Dom nor Willa seemed really happy about the marriage. They fought CONSTANTLY. The boys really thought they were doing the right thing (sigh). Anyway, the brothers are ecstatically in love, and now they think it’s time for Dom . . . and Willa to get back together. Okay, YOU broke them up! But that year has made Kieran and Finn into new men, love has brought them around, so they are going to try to help out their bestie and their sister. Easy peasy, right?

Yeah, no. Someone has got to tell the Ransome brothers that they absolutely suck when it comes to grand ideas and intelligent planning. But that won’t stop them. They have stranded Dom and Willa at a salacious house party on a remote Scottish island, hoping they will fall into each other’s arms. Alas, as you can tell by Willa’s first remark when she sees Dom (I will not spoil it, but I literally laughed out loud when I read it), it’s not going to be simple.

So Eva Leigh spins a tale that winds us up into Dom and Willa’s lives, their past relationship, how they’ve grown separately, and where their brains and hearts are now. Of course, we are sure they’ll get together in the end (it’s a happily ever after, of course), but it’s going to take dodging bullets of hurtful language and wading through emotional minefields to get the posh society lady and the guy from the stews together in a good way. But we recognize it’s going to be tough. She’s hurt and angry and he doesn’t feel like he is the best thing for her, so he smothers his heart. But fate, and interfering friends and family, have other plans.

Forced proximity is one of my favorite themes and Eva Leigh does this well. Her fresh take on that theme is wonderful—her spin is new and slightly different. Plus, I like the fact that her hero and heroine have to learn to communicate, even to just deal with being stuck together for (possibly) two weeks, but also because there needs to be some resolution. Her brother is married to his sister. Their families are close. They cannot hide from each other until the end of their days. And there’s the inheritance issue hanging over their heads . . . you know it’s going to be wild!

We’ve seen a lot of Dom and a little of Willa in the previous books, so it was delightful to get an entire novel devoted to them, plus you get to see some old favorites from her previous series (hey Maggie). Easy 5 star ending to a 5 star series.

This had some of my favorite tropes; second chance, forced proximity, house party. You can't get better than that. I've only read short stories by Eva Leigh in the past and have not read the others in this series but I've added them to my library hold after this one. Dom and Willa were great characters and I love how they grew and changed over the course of this story. This has a bit of a wallpaper historical feel but was so engrossing it didn't matter.

I really expected to enjoy this one because I had liked The Good Girl's Guide to Rakes by the same author. Sadly, this one lacked the charm of that one. It took me ages to get into this one, and even when I did, I still wasn't intrigued by the romance. It all felt oddly lackluster

Thanks to Netgalley for providing a free copy in exchange for an honest review

Dominic Kilburn and Lady Willa Ransom were once engaged to be married, but their relationship fizzled when Dominic left Willa at the altar. Not wanting anyone to know how hurt she was, Willa fled to the Continent, but now she's back after a year of traveling and is ready to move on with her life. Willa agrees to attend a summer house party on a remote Scottish isle with her two brothers and their wives, but to her surprise, they also invited Dom. It's clear to everyone in attendance that the pair still care deeply for one another but are too stubborn to work things out. The more Willa and Dom try to ignore the other, the more they can't seem to stay away. But when Dom finally reveals why he left Willa, will she be able to put aside her fears and open her heart to him once more?

I've been obsessed with this series since the first book, and I've been dying to read Willa and Dom's story. Let me tell you, Leigh did not disappoint. It's probably the best second-chance romance I've ever read, and the fact that it also used the forced proximity trope was just the icing on the cake. The tension between Willa and Dom was so palpable, and it was explosive once they came together. (Seriously, the steaminess of this book is next level.) I love all these characters, so it was fun seeing Willa's brothers and their wives pushing her and Dom together. All of Leigh's signature wit and banter shines in here. My only slight issue was that I thought the first half was a little slow, but everything ramped up by the end. Even though I'm sad to see this series wrap up, I'm so excited to see what Leigh comes up with next.

I can not express how much I have loved this series. Seriously, just like, so much love. I've always liked Dom's character but I wasn't sure about Willa since she doesn't make much of an appearance in the first 2 books. She's great. The best actually. She was not having any of Dom's BS and made him work HARD for their second chance. The sex scenes were *chef's kiss* perfection. But there was also real dialog and real healing for both characters. Just all around a perfect ending to the series.

This is the third and final installation in Eva Leigh's 'Last Chance Scoundrels series. Suffice to say I was incredibly nervous to read this one; it ties back to the raison d'etre for the 'ultimatum' that ties the three books together, and the second installation was somewhat of a letdown for me.
I was thrilled to find that I really enjoyed this one; it was a second-chance romance for Dom and Willa, they grew and changed as people and came back together stronger than ever. They got creative--in the most fun way as a reader--and really loved each other for who they are rather than what they represented to outside eyes.
Giving 4.5 rounded down for now!

I love a good second chance romance!! This one definitely delivered on the emotions and yearning, while still having plenty of humor and being a very fun read. I’ve been anxious to read Willa and Dom’s story since the first scene of The Good Girl’s Guide to Rakes and it did not disappoint.

One thing I appreciated towards the end of the novel is that Willa took the time to consider everything. Even with how much she loved Dom, rather than throwing caution to the wind and being swept away by the romance, she took a step back and thought about whether this was healthy or the best choice for her. Definitely super refreshing to see.

Also the spicy scenes are VERY spicy and very nice.

I actually don't know how to write a review for this book, because it is simply beyond words how indescribably in love with it I am. This is truly a perfect second chance romance. Actually...I think it's a perfect book.

Having Dom and Willa's breakup be the impetus for the series means that they've been simmering in the background throughout the first two books, teasing us with what was sure to be a delicious confrontation and reconciliation, and Eva delivered on both fronts. The mystery of why they separated in the first place has had me intrigued for the whole series, and it was so satisfying to see them finally hash it all out.

Second chances are easy to mess up, but this one surprised and delighted me at every turn. Not only was their breakup something they were able to reconcile and come back from--it was actually necessary to their development. Sometimes historicals can get away with second chance romances that rely on circumstances that can't exist in contemporaries, but Dom and Willa had a fundamental misunderstanding in the foundation of their relationship and both needed to grow as people before they could let down their walls enough to truly be vulnerable and see one another for who they were, which felt timeless and genuine. There was lots of back and forth, will-they-won't they--to be expected with two hotheads with an overabundance of sexual tension and deeply rooted fear of vulnerability--but it never felt excessive or gratuitous.

Also, I have to say it. This book is SEXY. Like, I was sweating after a four chapter sex extravaganza ft some surprise kink exploration, not to mention the previous scene where Dom BLOODIED HIS KNEES and ALLLLL the sexual tension leading up to all this. Everyone say "THANK YOU EVA" because we have been BLESSED.

Suffice to say I will never recover from Dom and Willa's book. I love them both so much. My heart went out to them and I kept yelling at them to just F*** ALREADY and when they finally did it was everything they (and I) deserved and more.

Also while this one can be read as a standalone and Eva does an excellent job of weaving in enough backstory that you shouldn't be confused, I'd recommend reading the previous 2 books for context that makes this story exponentially more satisfying to any readers debating whether they should read chronologically. Plus, all of Kieran, Celeste, Finn, and Tabitha's nonsense and shenanigans are so much fun that way!

I could not wait to get my hands on this one! I devoured it immediately and could not put it down.. Don and Willa had struggled to make it to the marriage alter the first time. They had to learn to trust each other but mostly themselves. There were so many emotions in their coming together and finding a HEA. I loved it.

Eva Leigh is a brilliant storyteller and this book is further evidence of her gifts! We are introduced to Dom and Willa at the very beginning of the first book in the series and, I will be honest, I didn’t foresee this couple coming back from this. I am glad I was wrong, I loved everything about this: the second chance romance, the slow burn, the groveling, the character development and the STEAM were great.

My one critique is that Willa’s journey of fully growing into her identity, strength, and independence seems totally at odds with how she essentially let her brothers rule over her life. The continually just threw her into situations like it was a game to them and I would have been furious if it were me! I felt some sort of reckoning would have been very appropriate given everything else we come to see and learn about Willa. Like a sorry would have been nice, you know?

Anyway, I highly recommend this series and think this book caps it off perfectly!

I have been anxiously awaiting this book so I was so happy to get ARC. Thank you Netgalley and Avon for copy in exchange for my review.

I have to admit going in I was nervous as to what could have been the reason for Dom to jilt Willa in book one of this series. But I quickly found myself enjoying the way their story played out and not worried about his reasoning being too dark or much for me. I trusted the author to give me a good and believable reason. She didn’t disappoint.

Dom and Willa were tricked into going to a house party on an island by caring friends and family who were hoping they could work things out. Although they tried to stay away from each other they were continuously thrown together and in each others company enough to start working some things out. Like how much they didn’t really know about each other or that their reasoning for wanting to marry might have been a little superficial. I really enjoyed reading their 2nd chance at love story and will def read more by this author.

Forced proximity, second chance, and opposites attract? How could I resist? Speaking of not being able to resist, the MCs circle each other spectacularly. The author does an incredible job cranking up the heat with these two, with a bold payoff. My one point of criticism is the MCs’ wounds didn’t seem as affecting to the overall story as they could have been.

Special thanks to Avon and Harper Voyager for sending me this book for review via NetGalley.
