Story5 out of 5 stars 1,139
Talking about death and dying is considered taboo in polite company, and even in the medical field. Our ideas about dying are confusing at best: Will our memories flash before our eyes? Regrets consume our thoughts? Does a bright light appear at the end of a tunnel? For most people, it will be a slower process, one eased with preparedness, good humor, and a bit of faith. At the forefront of changing attitudes around palliative care is hospice nurse Hadley Vlahos, who shows that end-of-life care can teach us just as much about how to live as it does about how we die.

William Waters grew up in a house silenced by tragedy, where his parents could hardly bear to look at him, much less love him—so when he meets the spirited and ambitious Julia Padavano in his freshman year of college, it’s as if the world has lit up around him. With Julia comes her family, as she and her three sisters are inseparable: Sylvie, the family’s dreamer, is happiest with her nose in a book; Cecelia is a free-spirited artist; and Emeline patiently takes care of them all.

Laila Tarraf was the chief people officer for Peet’s Coffee and Tea, the iconic Berkeley coffee roaster, but she had a secret: She was failing in the most important relationships in her life. Yes, she was a strong and effective business leader, the successful daughter of immigrants, and the mother of a toddler, but she was disconnected from her own feelings and had little patience for those of others. All that changed, however, when three of the people most important to her - her husband, father, and mother - died in quick succession.

Is this really a romance?
- By Kindle Customer on 07-23-20
By: Debbie Macomber
Publisher's summary
Rhonda Hayes promised to give her 35-year-old dying daughter, Sherry, anything she wanted. When Sherry requested that her mother sign up for a dating site, Rhonda was panic-struck. What would people think? Only nine months earlier, Rhonda’s devoted husband, Greg, had died from cancer.
Keeping her promise, Rhonda acquiesced to Sherry’s wish. Together they completed a dating profile; moments before hitting "Submit", Rhonda added these words: My daughter has terminal cancer and she is my life right now. Why would I be on a dating site? She is encouraging me to move on with my life and what a treat it would be if you had the opportunity to meet her. She is an angel.
Weeks later, Rhonda was immersed in two worlds: The exhilaration of falling in love and the despair of watching her daughter die. Love at the Last Minute is a memoir about finding courage, acceptance, and love. It’s also about how opening up to God’s plan can truly bring miracles into your life.

Brave and Courageous
I applaud the author for writing and sharing a honest and difficult journey through the loss of her husband and daughter. I smiled, I wept, and I laughed out loud through some of her experiences. How brave and courageous for her to share such intimate details with her readers.

Exceptional story full of inspiration and courage
Rhonda Curtis' story of both love and loss inspires on so many levels. The bond between she and her daughter is extraordinary and the author captivates with remembrances of their intimate times together. Her acceptance of her losses is spiritual, a role model for all who have ever experienced loss. The story is told in a remarkable fashion and the narrator, the author herself, is fantastic. Mesmerizing to listen to...
I have both read and listened to this wonderful story now. However you chose to enjoy "Love at the Last Minute," you will be not be disappointed. A fabulous memoir!

Love at the last minute
I personally know the author. I read the book several years ago and was touched! Listening to the audio version was an entirely new experience for me. I smiled, cried and felt so many other emotions. Life and death are both so fragile. Rhonda is an amazing writer and I am ever so grateful for her sharing this story. It has helped me to better understand, accept and be prepared when I need to cross that bridge with a loved one or for myself! ❤️

But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start.
