To Paige Miller, Two Last First Dates sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.
Paige is having a rough time. She’s unhappy in her career and her One Last First Date ended in total disaster. Now, she has to figure out what to do professionally and personally. Life as a spinster with fifteen cats doesn’t sound too bad, though.
Deciding to give up on love, Paige begrudgingly befriends Josh Bentley, the friendly coffee delivery guy, while helping out at the Cozy Cottage Café. His T-shirts make her eyes roll, but their runs have become an important part of her day and a blessing to her waistline, because Bailey’s cakes are too good to pass up.
Meanwhile, her best friends offer to find Mr. Right for her, and all Paige has to do is let them. Then, the man of her dreams walks through the door. Marcus Hahn is as good-looking as he is charming, and any thoughts Paige had of being alone with those fifteen cats, fly out the window. Now, she just has to hope her friends choose him as her Last First Date.

I used to think there was one perfect guy out there for me…and that we would be together, happy forever.
Love, career, relationships, parents- these can all be tricky to handle. But when you have a group of four delightful friends and a favorite café, anything is possible. Cassie found her forever love in the first book of this series. Now, it’s up to the other three, Bailey, Melissa and Paige to find their own romances.
But, Paige has given up on the One Last First Date plan. This pact among the friends was explained in Book 1 of the series- and yes, it does help to read the first book, which I suggest to you as a very pleasant assignment!
Since Paige feels she is a loser at love, her friends Bailey and Marissa decide to choose for her. Paige the decision we are sharing with you today is going to change the course of your life.
But what if the friends vetted the wrong man? And what if Paige has accidentally-on-purpose already had her last first date with heart throb Marcus?
The first book in this series made me smile- but the second book in the series is even better. It can be hard for an author to top a successful first book, but Author O’Keeffe has done it. This book has interesting story lines. I liked that we get to know Paige’s Dad who also has some life changes to consider. And I liked how the characters considered whether it is ever right to settle for an okay job. Speaking of characters- each one whether guys or gals, are all well-drawn and vibrant, with witty banter. The book also features wonderful descriptions of Auckland.
The main character in this book, Paige, is adorable- a bit timid and klutzy which makes for some great scenes. She is talented in marketing, too.
One of the best parts of the series continues to be the Cozy Cottage Café. The little shop is welcoming and warm, friendly, and positive with yummy treats- just like Kate O’Keefe’s book series. Jena C. Henry, August, 2017
