And One Last Thing...

By: Molly Harper

Narrated by: Amanda Ronconi

Lacey Terwilliger's shock and humiliation over her husband's philandering prompt her to add some bonus material to Mike's company newsletter: stunning Technicolor descriptions of the special brand of "administrative support" his receptionist gives him. The detailed mass e-mail to Mike's family, friends, and clients blows up in her face, and before one can say "instant urban legend", Lacey has become the pariah of her small Kentucky town, a media punch line, and the defendant in Mike's defamation lawsuit.

Her seemingly perfect life up in flames, Lacey retreats to her family's lakeside cabin, only to encounter an aggravating neighbor named Monroe. A hunky crime novelist with a low tolerance for drama, Monroe is not thrilled about a newly divorced woman moving in next door. But with time, beer, and a screen door to the nose, a cautious friendship develops into something infinitely more satisfying.

Lacey has to make a decision about her long-term living arrangements, though. Should she take a job writing caustic divorce newsletters for paying clients, or move on with her own life, pursuing more literary aspirations? Can she find happiness with a man who tells her what he thinks and not what she wants to hear? And will she ever be able to resist saying one... last... thing?

Critic reviews

"Harper brings her trademark humor and biting social comedy to this hilarious tale of heartbreak and romance, a novel that should be on the summer reading list of every woman who has been wronged." ( Booklist)

I loved it

This was a light hearted, funny book that I really enjoyed. The narrator must do stand up herself, because her comedic timing was spot on. And Audible, if you're reading this - I would like to somehow mark this author - so when she writes more, I will remember how much I enjoyed this book. (Just a suggestion!)

Hilarious and so entertaining!

I love this book. The narrator does an exellent job and the story is just so funny, interesting and lite. A must listen!!!

It's was okay

This one was more serious than her usual books. It's still has humor but definitely a heavier subject matter of infidelity.

Great book but very hard to listen to the narrator

The narrator's voice was quite nasal and made the story difficult to listen to. But the story was great. Predictable ending but I don't have a problem with that.

Not my fave by this author

2.5/5; 3 stars; B-

This was an OK contemporary romance but not up Molly Harper's usual style IMO. Just ok. I usually like Amanda Ronconi as a narrator but in this one her voice was kind of grating.
