From Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills and international bestselling author Tia Louise…

The first rule of office romance is don’t do it—especially if your dream is to hold the anchor spot on the nightly news and your boss is trying to get you fired.

But one look at Cade Hill, the sexy new sports director, and uptight reporter Rebecca Fieldstone is daydreaming about other things.

Sex in his office…
Sex in the on-set kitchen…
Sex in the supply closet…

She can’t stop thinking about the former NFL quarterback and how perfect he’d look between her sheets—except he’s an arrogant jerk with a huge…ego.

He’s the last guy she’d ever have a one-night stand with.

Cade Hill draws a thick professional line on office romance—until it comes to the hyper-focused Rebecca. He wants her, and he gets his wish when a chance encounter has them having the hottest sex of their lives.

It’s just a hook-up, she says.
When can we do it again? he says.

With Rebecca determined to keep Cade in the friend zone, it’s going to be an uphill battle for Cade to convince her he’s the last guy she’ll ever want.

I love a good office romance and this book definitely fit the bill. I liked that the setting of this book was actually tv; it's not an easy setting to work in. The Last Guy had me laughing, sighing and fanning myself. I've enjoyed works from both of these authors previously and I enjoyed their work as a team.

As someone who formerly watched Toddlers and Tiaras occasionally the opening of this book had me laughing. I thought it was a clever opening and it pulled me right into the story. I liked Rebecca. I enjoyed her confidence in herself and in her abilities. She's a strong woman and she's not afraid to show that. I could relate to her and her struggles in the workplace.

I adored Cade. Simply adored him. I have a thing for football players and Cade had me laughing and swooning. He knew he was attracted to Rebecca but he certainly wasn't expecting to feel the way he did about her. It caused some hiccups for them which had me shaking my head in spots, but he's a guy LOL so I expected that.

There's definitely that spark between these two. I loved the progression of their relationship. Cade's pep talks were adorable to me. I truly enjoyed how he supported her. Their relationship felt like it was paced well. It wasn't perfect by any means, but the journey they took was fun for me to go along on.

This book had me laughing for sure. It had me sighing and swooning. It's a book I'll go back and read again. There are spots where it's a tad predictable-but it almost needed to be. It just worked. This is the type of rom-com I could see Sandra Bullock in at the box office.

I enjoyed this book and look forward to the next works from these authors. I recommend this book.



Ilsa Madden Mills and Tia Louise are both fairly new authors to me, and I was excited to read this book, as I love office romances and the idea of an office romance with a chance to read a new author was exciting.

I was not disappointed. Cade and Rebecca had amazing chemistry but you also like them as people, and you like them as coworkers. I loved that Rebecca is allowed to be a strong woman, that she is allowed to be strong and driven, and that isn't an issue for people.

I also liked how much Cade genuinely liked her, even when he was placed into some odd situations, and when he made the wrong decisions too, you believed that, above all, he wanted to do the right thing by Rebecca, and he supported her.

I thought the ending was a little obvious...and maybe a little cliche. Not in a way that was bad enough for me to be unable to enjoy the book, obviously, but at the end I thought the events tied up maybe a little too perfectly and in a way where I found myself saying "I saw that coming" more than once.

That said, overall I enjoyed it a lot...and I am looking forward to the next book by these authors, either separately or as a writing team.

I recommend this title.
