This author can do no wrong in my opinion, loved this book too! Finished it in one sitting....could not put it down.

A great thriller, packed with surprises that keep you hooked. Once again, Modglin includes LGBTQ representation!

Kiersten Modglin has done it again with another rollercoaster ride of a thriller. This one is sure to have you on the edge of your seat. And, like many Modglin books (which is part of what I love about her books!), it’s relatively short, making this delightful suspense easy to binge.
The Last Trip follows Sadie and Calvin as they decide to go on a quick babymoon getaway to the mountains shortly before their first child is due to be born. When Calvin finds out some very unexpected news right before the trip, things are off to a rocky start and only become worse when the cabin owners seem to develop a strange obsession with the couple. Sadie and Calvin’s lives as they thought they knew them quickly begin to unravel.
Thank you to Kiersten Modglin, Dreamscape Media, & NetGalley for the ARC! All opinions are my own.

Kristin Modglin delivers another of her signature stories featuring manipulation and betrayal in this latest novel.
After a couple go away for a babymoon aka one last getaway before their baby arrives, they discover that the carefully selected air bnb is very different from the trip that they dreamed of.
Why do the elderly couple who own the same to be so interested in them? And why is there a distinctly creepy vibe to them?
The answer to that is far beyond what one might expect. But then - with a necessary suspension of disbelief - that is precisely what this writer specialises in delivering. Her latest story is very entertaining, and will be eagerly welcomed by her fans. It gets 3.5 stars.

ARC Review
This was a quick, fun, twisty read. If you're looking for a fast paced thriller with the same vibes as Rock Paper Scissors, I highly recommend!

Calvin and Sadie decide to spend their baby moon in a remote cabin. Before they even leave, they find out some shocking news. Sadie feels like she is being watched at the cabin. Strange things continue to happen and Sadie doesn’t know how to trust.
This is a super fast read with lots of twists. I had no idea what was going to happen until it happened. I felt the ending was a bit abrupt and at times far fetched.
Thank you to Kiersten Modglin, Dreamscape Media, and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for anfor honest review.

This book was bananas. Pretty much like all Kiersten Modglin books. A few loose ends, like (not a spoiler) the whole nurse in wrong room thing. Did I miss something?
Anyways, this book was really entertaining, kept me wanting to keep reading it. Her plot twists are insane and I never saw it coming. Highly recommend. Just dropped a star because I thought she could have ended it a little less, dangerously. And the loose ends.
Thank you to NetGalley for my free ARC in exchange for an honest review of the book.

Calvin and Sadie are having a baby and going on their babymoon in the last place I would personally ever want to travel for such a thing..
Creepy and anxiety inducing - the cabin owners are always around, and they can tell that something is obviously off. Typical Kiersten Modglin, a fast, popcorn thriller. I will always pick up and read!
🎧: narration provided by Abigail Reno and Jay Myers. Both did a fabulous job with their characters.

Another great mystery from Kiersten Modglin. I was not expecting that ending! Kiersten kept me on the edge of my seat throughout the story.
Abigail Reno and Jay Myers did a great job narrating this story. I liked the alternating points of view, it helped me keep track of who was speaking.

This is a solid Kiersten Modglin book and one of the more interesting ones. I find I like her newer books more than her earlier ones. They are always suspenseful, entertaining and quick and easy reads. I appreciate books like this that are a good distraction from the stressors of everyday life.

I love reading Kiersten Modglin books. She comes up with the best twists. I always think, how did she come up with that?? But, the great thing is that we get the enjoyment out of it.
This is a great one guys, don't miss out! Read it! 5 stars!
Many thanks to Net Galley and Dreamscape Media for an audio ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

"I have to tell you something."
Yeah, that's not a sentence you ever want to hear from your baby daddy, especially in a Kiersten Modglin psychological thriller. But we hear Cal say that to his pregnant fiancee, Sadie, before The Last Trip they can take before their baby girl is born, a babymoon.
Now the news is shocking but Sadie and Cal seem to take it in stride and head to their rented remote cabin in the snowy mountains. Once there everything goes off the rails, from the creepy stalking elderly couple renting them the cabin and the invited guest who shows up for dinner and is not who they say they are according to Sadie.
Things only go from bad to worse when they get home and it's obvious someone's been in their apartment. What follows is such a WTF twisted tale I was truly struck speechless by the end.
I loved the dual POVs performed by voice actress Abigail Reno and voice actor Jay Myers. It was my first time being entertained by both and I can't wait to hear more from them. Abigail's rightly paranoid Sadie was on point. Jay's nuanced interpretation of Cal was perfect.
The start of the audiobook is Sadie in the present and Cal in the past telling how he pursued Sadie. Silly me thought how sweet. Almost forgot The Last Trip is a Kiersten Modglin story. It's all artificial sweetener to soften my brain for when she makes it explode by the end! The Last Trip is a quick thriller joy ride!

for a fair and honest review. All opinions are my own.

Sadie is very pregnant when she and her boyfriend, Cal, decide to take one last weekend trip before their lives change forever. It’s supposed to be a peaceful, intimate escape—just the two of them, savoring these final moments before parenthood. But from the moment they arrive, nothing goes quite right. The house owners are... strange. The unexpected visitor? Even stranger. And as the hours pass, a creeping sense of unease settles over Sadie, sending shivers down her spine.
Modglin expertly builds on this eerie atmosphere, pulling readers deeper into Sadie's increasingly unsettling experiences. Cal has his own perspective, too, but the way their voices are woven into the narrative is anything but typical. The story shifts between past and present, between She and Him, blurring the lines of time and identity. At first, the lack of names in their chapters is disorienting—until you realize why.
And just when you think you have it all figured out? Another twist. Then another. Right down to the very last page.
I don't think this book is as good as some of her others but still worth it, if you have the time.

In this tense, atmospheric thriller, expectant parents Calvin and Sadie’s babymoon in a remote mountain cabin turns into a nightmare. Strange hosts, unsettling revelations, and a growing sense of danger leave them questioning everything—including each other. Fast-paced and chilling, The Last Trip is a gripping tale of paranoia, secrets, and survival.

Thank you @NetGalley and @Dreamscape_Media for the ARC. I could not stop listening to this audio. The muti-point of views was great. I so did not see the end coming, very suspenseful. Kiersten Modglin writes great suspense.

A last minute babymoon to a scenic airbnb sounds so romantic and relaxing......not what you're getting in this book.
Baby daddy is a controlling, egotistical maniac. Baby mamma is unsuspecting victim of a long planned scenario with possible murderous results. The rental owners are scary and everywhere all the time. A long lost daughter connects with her dad and is invited to the weekend.
Just what evolves out of all this are twists you expected, that then set off a new stream of questions. All very exciting but cut short by an abrupt ending. Loved it anyway, just wanted more.

Sadie and her fiancé Calvin decided to have a baby moon at an Airbnb, from the moment they get there things are strange. The couple who owned the property seemed to keep popping up and are absolutely creepy.
Things get stranger and Sadie wants to leave immediately the next day, Calvin seems resistant to leave, but finally agrees. Sadie starts to wonder about the truth of the big revelation that Calvin has told her about and she starts to doubt the veracity of their relationship. Sadie finally can’t take it anymore and has to find out what is going on was she finds ultimately shakes the whole foundation of what she thinks she knows.
I really enjoyed this book. It had me hooked right from the beginning, parts of it in the middle were a little slow, but maybe it was because I was really anxious to get to what was really going on. This book has so many twists, I wasn’t sure where the story was going at some points, but I really enjoyed the ending.
Thank you to NetGalley, the audio house and the author for the opportunity to listen to a complimentary copy of this book in return for a review based upon my honest opinion.
I look forward to more books by this author. The narration was very well done. I enjoyed the narrators, they brought the characters to life.

What a great read/listen! Did not see the ending coming. Whoa!
Calvin and Sadie want to have one last getaway before the baby arrives. So they rented a house to spend some time together the two of them. There were some surprises before the left, but in the end Sadie still wanted to go and has this time away together. While on the baby moon, weird things start happening at the place they rented, and it’s starting to scare Sadie a bit.
This was a nice short book! Another great listen by this author.

The plot was good and the twists were interesting, but what the characters chose to believe and some aspects of the storyline were so far-fetched it was hard to stay fully invested. Nevertheless, a very enjoyable and quick read by one of my go to authors. Thank you for the ARC!!

Kiersten Modglin delivers another thrilling and fast-paced psychological suspense novel with The Last Trip. The story follows Calvin and Sadie, a couple expecting their first child, who decide to take one last vacation before their lives change forever. They book a quiet, secluded cabin in the mountains, hoping for a peaceful escape. But from the moment they arrive, things feel off. The homeowners seem a little too involved, and an unsettling sense of being watched begins to creep in. When secrets from the past start to surface, their dream trip turns into a nightmare, leaving them questioning everything—including each other.
The audiobook narration was fantastic, adding an extra layer of intensity to the already gripping plot. Modglin’s signature style of short, binge-worthy chapters made it impossible to stop listening. The tension builds perfectly, with twists and turns that kept me on edge until the very last page. Just when I thought I had it figured out, another surprise would throw me off course.
If you enjoy fast-paced psychological thrillers with relationship drama, eerie settings, and shocking reveals, The Last Trip is definitely one to add to your list!
Thank you to NetGalley for the opportunity to listen to this audiobook.
