I love an RS Grey novel, so I was excited to jump into this one. I loved the island vibe and the setting of a hotel where we get to see all the ins and outs of the day to day running it along side Paige and Cole. I loved the personality differences, and the side characters of the other staff members. The banter was always fresh and funny, a signature of RS Grey that always has me coming back. I will say, the pacing of this one felt slightly off. There was a lot of tension and build up and then I felt like it was over too soon. But that is sort of how a slow burn is supposed to go, and slow burn this was!

I really liked Cole’s character a lot. I wish we got a few more chapters from his POV. Paige was alright, but very immature. Maybe because I am 40, I might be further removed from the dating in my 20s, but it just seemed to me that she made some very rash/emotional decisions and was immature overall.

Another thing that bothered me was the way the villain was portrayed in this story. He should have just been a slimy character in action, but the main thing that was focused on in ever encounter with him was his eating habits and his weight. It was almost like all villains are known to be overweight or something? I don’t know, it rubbed me the wrong way. I have never been offended by anything from this author previously, so I hope this character was a one off.

Bottom Line: Overall, it was a fun read to kick off summer! I had a hard time putting it down, and finished it in less than 24 hours.

**I received an ARC copy from the author and Netgalley in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are of my own.**

Just ok. 2.5 stars generously rounded up.

I wasn't as in love with this book as I wanted to be. The premise was cute, enemies to lovers storyline and the beautiful setting of Turks and Caicos (well, except for the hurricane). I like the author's writing style, plenty of sarcasm and off the cuff humor thrown in, but I wasn't enamored with Paige. She alternates between thinking (and sometimes saying) some pretty rude things to Cole, even though he is her boss, and having daydreams about him. He has a ton a patience with her and wants to preserve her job (not that she knows this, at first).

Once a hurricane forces them to be in close proximity without escape for a couple of days, they start to acknowledge feelings...finally out loud instead of just spoken in their heads. Like I say, it was an ok romance and I would read another by this author, but this wasn't a favorite.

Thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book, but my opinions are my own.

This book was a cute and light summer read.
I loved the two main characters the opposites truly do attract. The banter was top tier!! I’ve read books by this author before and I will continue to.

If you are looking for a fun, entertaining read and like me you love slow burn, enemies to lovers romances look no further than Paige Young and Cole Clark’s story in Their Last Resort. This book was everything I expected and so much more, it was witty and funny and it has characters you can’t help bonding with.
Paige and Cole are complete opposites, she loves her job at a luxury resort in the Turks and Caicos organising games and things for the guests to do while he spends his days crunching numbers. But he is also the assistant director at the resort so it’s his job to hire and fire and it’s seems Paige is about to be fired just before a hurricane hits their slice of paradise. What follows S an entertaining, easy to read romantic comedy as these two come to terms wth their feelings.

Their Last Resort by R.S. Grey is the story of Paige Young and Cole Clark. Paige likes adventures and is very creative. So she puts her all in her job at the island resort in Turks and Caicos. Cole is a numbers guy who stays behind a desk while he works at that resort too. They are totally different but they are finding their common ground. Enjoyed this book,

I think I just read my new favorite R.S. Grey book. And in typical Macy fashion, my only complaint is that I want more. I need a full 8 book series of Cole and Paige's life together in Turks and Caicos (or traveling around the world and working at various destination hotels).

This writing is witty and emotional and just plain fun. I feel like R.S. Grey's has me wrapped around her writing finger. Sometimes, I'll read a passage and it just sounds like something my inner monologue would say so it's like she's sitting on my subconscious and marking it up with a pen. (Does that make sense? Am I just rambling? Will probably have to go back and edit this one when I'm not on a book high, I think.)

Cole and Paige are textbook enemies to lovers and it works so well. There's a bit of adventure and tension due to the hurricane and the whole bit about working at a luxury hotel, but also their banter is top notch. I'm not even sorry for gushing about this book so much. I loved it.

If you are new to R.S. Grey's books (welcome my friend), I know her backlist is a little daunting because she has so many publications, but this is a great place to start. Plus, this book is on Kindle Unlimited so what do you have to lose? Nothing. That's what.

Tropes: enemies to lovers, forced proximity, mutual pining, workplace romance, found family, opposites attract, and dual POV.

Their Last Resort was a quick, workplace rivals romp. It definitely gave me The Hating Game vibes. I enjoyed the slowburn element of the story and I also really enjoyed Cole. At times Paige seemed a little over the top in her goofiness at times, but I felt like overall she and Cole balanced each other out well. If you're looking for a cute, quirky, quick read, give this one a go!

Thank you PR for the ARC.

I read a review that said that Paige has "pick-me-girl" energy, and I couldn't agree more!
The way the author paints Cole in a less-than way, bc he is an accountant manager, wears suits, is "stuck indoors performing his number-crunching desk job", has a "five-year plan. It’s color coded and leather bound." Can we stop that? There is nothing wrong about being working an office job, being by the book and having a five-year plan.
R.S.Grey's heroines come across as the most immature FMCs I've ever read about - characters who are supposed to be adults. Case in point, they kiss, she flees, and when he says "last night never happened", she gets hurt. I mean, OK for the getting hurt part, but if you run away from someone after you kiss them, can you blame them for their reaction? Come on.
This was already not going well, so imagine my shock at this sentence:
<i>“Imagine if he accidentally booked a flight to Syria. He’d be bartending for ISIS right now . . .”</i>
Not only is it of poor taste, but what a completely idiotic statement to reduce a country to this. Syria is culturally rich: cuisine, music, literature. Some people need to remove their head out of their ass and take a look around. How did a casual remark like this go through editing?
This is where I dnf.

ARC thorugh Netgalley. All opinions are my own.

This was a cute and funny quick paced story. I liked how the plot progressed and how the characters were written.

Ok, this book was so darn sweet! I loved the banter between the characters, I adored Paige and Cole was just PURE perfection, they are hilarious though. This is an enemies to lovers trope but then again they both have feelings???? its hard to describe but its a speed read, the chemistry is THERE with these two, and its a perfect before-summer read.

Thanks Netgalley and the publishers for giving me the opportunity to read this book.

Romantic, funny and utterly consuming, Their Last Resort was everything I had hoped for, and so much more. I adored Cole and Paige’s story, their banter is absolutely on point and their chemistry is exquisite perfection. RS Grey is an automatic must read for me, and this book proves why!

This was a very fun read. There’s a great sense of humour running through the book, R.S. Grey’s turn of phrase is very amusing. The romance also has a really lovely edge to it; whilst there is good chemistry and sexual tension in it my favourite thing was how soft the relationship between them is. The mutual pining is just delicious, and there were lots of touching little moments which showed how deeply they cared about each other, as well as scenes where they laugh and joke together. It gave a really good grounding to their relationship beyond just physical attraction and I loved that about this book.

However, the hurricane aspect of this book felt a little underwhelming and, based off the description, actually occurred a little late for me in the book. I also thought the pacing in general was a little off; there were parts of the book that felt quite fast and then the ending felt quite dragged out.

Still, it didn’t impact my overall enjoyment of the book too much. It was a very solid romcom - funny and fluffy with a really cute and sexy romance. I enjoyed it a lot and would recommend it to anyone looking for a light, fluffy, forced proximity romance with some good mutual pining. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing a free copy of this book.

Content Notes: Natural disaster (hurricane, flooding). on-page sex, unprotected sex.

This book had me smiling from beginning to end. I really enjoyed this slow burn romance with a good balance of sweetness, funny moments and a great setting in Turks and Caicos. Highly recommend, especially if you need a break from angst books with extremely likeable characters and a fun plot behind the scenes of a tropical resort.

Oh my! Paige and Cole stole my heart. I love their witty banter and Paige's inner thoughts so much. I listened to the audiobook and Luci Christian and Wyeth Watts just nailed these characters and their personalities so perfectly. The chemistry was hot and you could feel their attraction from the beginning. Enemies to lovers is my favorite trope and it is perfection in this story. I can't wait for a physical copy to put on my favorites shelf.

4 Stars!
Paige Young enjoys traveling and seeing new places, so when she gets the opportunity to work in paradise she takes it. She quickly decides the island life is for her. Every day brings something exciting with her job at a luxury resort in Turks and Caicos. She is in charge of guest activities, entertainment and hospitality. Life in the tropics is full of adventure, and her new home has become her sanctuary and happy place. Everything is wonderful at Siesta Playa, except her relationship with the assistant director of operations. Cole Clark is second in command and always manages to annoy her and get her all riled up. For a year they've been rivals since that kiss they pretend didn't happen. They drive each other crazy, and are just too different. While she's fun, spontaneous, and up for anything, Cole is a grumpy workaholic whose usually behind a desk. He's a number crunching, rule following, buttoned up suit type that does everything by the book. They enjoy tormenting each other, and lately he's a huge thorn in her side. When their suddenly forced to spend more time together in an emergency situation will they finally move past the enemy stage and confront the real feelings that might be hiding under all that animosity?

Their Last Resort by R.S. Grey is a slow burn, rivals, opposites attract, enemies to lovers, beach romance full of sizzling chemistry and fantastic banter. I really enjoyed this fun, flirty, cute read! <333

Cole is Paige's work nemesis, from the first day they meet, his cold demeanor is the exact opposite to her sunny one. Each day they throw barbs at one another and it's obvious to everyone around them (except them, it would seem) that they are made for one another. after a few vulnerable moments, Paige isn't sure that Cole really truly likes her, so she tries to protect herself by putting all the walls up and trying to find someone else to focus her attention on.
I really did enjoy the chapters we got to see from Cole's POV and I will admit, seeing Paige try to make Cole jealous, got a little cringey, but I lived for Cole. I loved his patience with her, his quiet brooding and his willingness to banter back and forth with her. He was so shy and like a little puppy I just wanted to hug. I love workplace romance, especially when it is enemies to lovers and the boy falls hard and first. So if those tropes are your jam, you need to check this out. 3.5 stars rounded up cause I really did love Cole.
Thanks to Montlake, Netgalley and RS Grey for an early copy.

Cole and Paige are co-workers at a resort in Turks and Caicos. They have this hate/hate relationship, but really they both like each other. Cole is reserved and quiet while Paige is more outgoing and loud. She seems a bit childish, too, for being 25 years old.

I was wondering how they were going to get together when a hurricane forces them to share a room and bed. I felt the build up to that was slow, but the I love you to each other was too fast and weird.

This is my first book by this author and while I liked enough, I didn’t love it. I’ll try another of her books, though.

Thank you to Montlake Romance and NetGalley for an advanced readers copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

can we please stop having FMCs that are irrational, immature,, accident prone morons?! I can’t root for these type of women. They have no agency. Maybe this is a me problem, but if Paige (our FMC) were an actual employee at this hotel, it absolutely wouldn’t be a luxe resort in T&C, it would be a Great Wolf Lodge. I struggled to get past her attitude and incompetence. I get that she’s supposed to be fun and care-free but in her environment, no way. Cole, our MMC, is fine. He doesn’t get as many POV chapters as I would have liked, mostly because I couldn’t stand being in Paige’s “head”. Our heroine has to big changing moment, or growth. The couple become a couple quite quickly within the book, though we know they have worked together for a while. Unfortunately, the plot is lacking and the tension/chemistry was nonexistent. I really hope you have better luck with it. R.S. Grey is usually a hit for me, and I think it’s just a character mesh issue for me. They're not for me. 2 ⭐️

I’m so grateful to the publisher, and to NetGalley for this advanced copy, in exchange for my unbiased review.

RS Grey will always be an auto buy, and Their Last Resort was another fun read! Finished this in like one sitting, too!

I’ve been waiting to read this book for months, I get so excited each time R.S. Grey releases a new book and I hope that never changes! Cole and Paige are so much fun, their life at the T&C resort seems like so much, like id love to runaway and do their jobs for a year or so, but they also have such a fun coworker relationship as Paige dislikes Cole and Cole just finds her adorable.

Paige is literally adorable but also the way Cole describes her, you can see how he fell in love with her. He sees every detail about her and loves both her good and bad traits. He is also super respectful of her and I love that. The hurricane was a great way to add external conflict to the story in addition to Todd’s story line!

Their Last Resort is a great summer rom com that is perfect for a vacation on the beach or at home wishing you were at the beach!
