Cassie Dunhill is sick of dating. It’s been ten years and it’s time, time to find The One. It’s either that or buy a fetching habit and veil and abandon the whole thing. But Cassie believes in love, and she’s not ready to give up yet.

Cassie and her best friends make a pact that the next date they go on will be their One Last First Date. The pressure is on to find Mr. Right, and Cassie’s the first to find him: Parker Hamilton. He’s good-looking, smart, cultured—and a doctor. Despite his obvious credentials, Cassie’s not taking any chances. She’s vetted Parker so thoroughly she could offer some pointers to the CIA. He passes with flying colors.

Things get complicated when Will Jordan, her irritating work colleague, muscles in on her dream job and her love life. Will is a typical guy, complete with nicknames for everyone, even Cassie. His good looks and relaxed and easy nature can be distracting. But Cassie can do without that kind of distraction right now, no matter how good Will looks with his shirt off.

In the end, is there only One Last First Date?

Thank you Kate O’Keefe for writing my new favorite book! In fact this may be my One Last Favorite Book!

One Last First Date has it all- adorable characters, clever plot, witty banter, this is feel-good chick lit at its best. It’s described as A romantic comedy of love, friendship and cake (Cozy Cottage Café Book 1

We first meet Cassie Dunhill and her two best friends, Marissa and Paige on a beach near Auckland, on a stormy night. Cassie has been dating men for 10 years and she is ready to call it quits. Her friends agree and a pact is made- the next date they go on will be their One Last First Date.

Cassie is a darling character. She has a good job with a future and she is a planner.

“Me, the girl who had her life mapped out so thoroughly, had clear achievable goals in life.”

She puts her analytic skills to good use, as she searches for the perfect first date. She just knows that her plan has met its destiny in Parker Hamilton.

“I had The Plan. After all my research, vetting, planning- frankly my obsessing- I was finally going on a date with Parker Hamilton.” He’s a doctor, good looking, polite, cultured and after a few more dates, he will be Cassie’s husband.

But, her job brings a surprise and then there’s Will, her co-worker. Cassie is confused and worries that she has been unfair. During many stops at her favorite café to chat with her friends, Cassie learns that plans and goals don’t always work out in real life. (The Cozy Cottage Café is adorable, too.)

By the end of this enjoyable read, Cassie has a new way to approach life and love.

“I didn’t feel like I needed to behave in a certain way or cultivate interests I didn’t have. I could be me.”

She also gets wiser. “Breakups are hard- universal truth- it’s much harder on the dumpee than the dumper.”

Readers, this is a delightful book.
