The big question that Sutton asks Callahan. What’s in it for ME? and that’s the question that looms thru this intense romance.
What starts as a one night stand where real names are not exchanged, turns into an awkward, sexually charged working relationship. They were never supposed to see each other again! That certainly changed. I loved the intense banter back and forth between project manager Sutton Pierce and billionaire Callahan Sharpe. They are working to bring a struggling resort up to par for the Sharpe International Network (S.I.N.) and they struggle with mistakes and regrets from their pasts as they play a push and pull game of wanting to relive their one night stand. Sutton won’t give into Callahan’s charms. Instead she says “what’s in it for me”. If he can’t answer that ambiguous question… no sex. Wow does Callahan struggle with this.
I loved reading how Sutton discovers her strength and what she deserves after having an emotionally abusive ex boyfriend. Callahan, the womanizer, the emotionally evasive man, surprisingly helps Sutton see what she really deserves. Callahan just can’t accept he may have real feelings for Sutton. His struggles, their struggles, melt your heart.
I enjoyed the difficult, resentment in the brothers’ relationship. It felt real. There was jealousy over how each were treated differently by their father. There was anger. And their fights? Your heart will clench like Callahan’s did. His brothers treat him like a screw up and him trying to prove them wrong is heartfelt and at times, heartbreaking.
I also appreciated Sutton’s best friend, Lizzy, and her honesty and consistent support of her friend. Their conversations were wonderful and showed such a healthy friendship.
There’s so much to this book. I loved it all! And the ending? The answer Callahan finds to Sutton’s question “what’s in it for me?” is everything and more.

I've always been quite a fan of K. Bromberg's books, they've definitely become one of my go-to/comfort reads. And I'll never turn down their books, but I'll be honestly, I had no idea we were getting a new series. I love her series when there's family ties in it and here we have the Sharpe brothers.
Last Resort was a solid 4 for me, really loved listening to this on audio, both new to me narrators that did such a great job. I truly hope they'll be back to narrate the rest of this series.
The tension was soooo good between Sutton and Callahan, truly, it was so great. And I liked that Sutton didn't give into Callahan so easily. It was actually nice to read a sort of workplace romance, where it wasn't constantly crossing lines.
I'm not sure how I feel about Callahan's brothers yet, there's definitely some strain, which gets better by the end. But looking forward to see them all together in the books to come.
I recommend picking up the audio!

This was a solid read. I really enjoyed the hero and his brothers (I’ll be looking forward to their books), and I loved how the author tied in the resort to the hero, heroine and brothers’ stories.
The ending was heartwarming, and the spicy throughout was so good.
While there wasn’t anything I didn’t enjoy, it was not a story that gripped me. I would recommend it and and suggest others pick it up, though.

that was boring. i dont even remember what happened other than the basic plot you can figure out from reading the summary and i read this less than a week ago. the triplet thing was also so odd. i dont remember anything else at least it was short idk.

K. Bromberg kicks off her new S.I.N. series with Last Resort, a delectable workplace romance set in the Virgin Islands.
What could be better than one hunky hero? Three gorgeous billionaire brothers to drool over. There’s a bit of a twist there, but I won’t spoil it. The Sharpe brothers own Sharpe International Network, a worldwide brand of luxury resorts. Sutton Pierce is the consultant tasked with turning around their underperforming resort in the Virgin Islands. She’ll need to be on site at the resort for two months (oh, the horror) while working on a plan, under the close supervision of Callahan Sharpe. He’s the wild child, black sheep of the family. He also happens to be the man she unknowingly indulged in a one-night stand with.
I liked the first half of the book more than the second. The building of the relationship between Sutton and Callahan. Discovering ways to improve the resort. Sutton’s friendship with Lizzie. But then things happen too abruptly. After sticking with her decision to not sleep with Callahan throughout most of the book, Sutton does a sudden change of face at the most improbable of times. The animosity between Callahan and his brothers is also resolved too quickly.
I would have enjoyed exploring some other parts of the story more. For example, it would have been nice to see the impact of renovating the resort. As it is, it’s like watching an HGTV makeover show without the big reveal at the end. And wouldn’t it have been fun to make Sutton’s douchey ex eat crow after seeing her success in love and in business?
Still, it’s a good launch to the series, and I’m looking forward to reading about Ledger and Ford finding love.

I received an arc for a honest review.
4.5 Stars. If you love billionaire romance, work place romance, enemies to lovers, one night stand,

The cover implies this is so much steamier than it is, when in reality this is an adorable rom-com with emotional family reconciliations and a little rivals-to-lovers actions.
