Emerson is a top model, very successful and well known. Emerson and Theo met during orientation for high school. She was standing alone, and Theo introduced himself. The rest is history. Emerson had a hoarder for a mother and never had any close friends. It was Theo who helped her through the years of high school. When Emerson was chosen to be a model, she left for L.A. saying she no longer loved him. Theo became a talented photographer and after 10 years, Emerson shows up in Italy and is one of the models he is shooting. Emerson is determined to try to rekindle their relationship. There are people who do not want her to do this, and in truth, the relationship could hurt both their careers. This was a great book! I loved the close-knit relationship Theo had with his parents, brother, and his brother’s family. I loved the support Emerson had from her friend and past boyfriend. There were a lot of insecurities and I enjoyed watching Emerson and Theo work through those. Emerson’s fame and Theo’s reaction to her life made the book really interesting. Wonderful story and characters!

High school besties meet back up in Italy. One is a super model and the other is photographing the shoot. Second chance romance/flashbacks.

This book is so well written and done so well. I love flashbacks/second chance romance with best friends but a lot of times I feel like the back story is really under developed. This was not the case with this book. I loved both characters and their stories. The pacing of the story was also great.

One Last Shot was Betty Cayouette's first shot and a fabulous one! I became invested in the characters and their stories just as much as their love story together! The flashbacks were vital to the plot and never over the top. I fully cheered for their love throughout the book. The setting was the icing on the cake! A perfect summer (or whenever) romance read!
