The Last Time We Met Kindle Edition

What if you’re a nerdy med student and a womanizing rock star wants you as her next conquest—then leaves you totally humiliated.

Now fast-forward eleven years.

Sexy and magnetic, Australian rock star Austen Farleigh is at the height of her spectacular career. Her penchant for one-night stands is as famous as her many songs.

American Dr. Merritt Harrington now works for Doctors Without Borders and is at a crossroads in her life. Her last assignment in the Andes Mountains was harrowing, and her love life at a dead end. No one has been able to ignite even a tiny spark since Austen—damn her.

When they meet again in Australia, Merritt is desperate to keep Austen at arm’s length. But temptation whispers in her ear.

From the US to Peru to Australia and the highlands of Papua New Guinea, their desire for one another is on an uncontrollable collision course—with a force they may no longer be able to ignore.

Review

For me several things took this book to a higher level that most f/f romances. Often side characters are props and one dimensional and the romance is between the only two available women. In this book there are other romantic potentials, a lawyer, a photographer, military medical people. Merritt actually goes on outings with another woman. I enjoyed learning about the work and stresses of DWB. Austen's character was more a stereotypical singer. But she acknowledged her past and was willing to date to see where things would go. At one point a bar bet allows Merritt to show her trust and confidence in the new relationship. Another author might have turned it into a dramatic misunderstanding. I also loved Australia as the setting. When the author mentions a print of a painting I didn't know I instantly looked it up and found the original is in a bar in Melbourne. Little touches like that enhance the story and romance.―NetGalley-Kaye C.

About the Author

Born and bred in Queensland, Australia, Maggie has always been an advocate for women’s rights. An avid reader, she only discovered lesbian literature ten years ago, which opened a whole new world to her. A long-term artist, she turned her hand to writing for a different challenge. It’s become her passion, and she now has eight books on the shelves, two of which were finalists in the Golden Crown Literary awards. Her novels vary from thrillers to romances. Maggie loves dotting her pages with lots of interesting characters, and writes about relationships with a humorous eye. When she’s not writing, she’s a golf hacker, card sharp and movie buff, and particularly likes to chill out at night with a glass of wine and a good book.

Leni Hanson is a crazy romantic. Disproving the saying "love is nothing in tennis," she's married to her tennis partner. She enjoys watching college football (Roll Tide), MLB, and all women's sports, in addition to shows like Beacon Hill. An avid collector of unique objects from around the world, she treasures her Ramses Wissa Wassef tapestry the most. She lives in the US.

I greatly enjoyed this book by Maggie Brown and Leni Hanson. The chemistry is palpable. I loved the MCs and secondary characters. There was low angst, which was appreciated.
I couldn't put the book down. It evolved naturally. I look forward to more books by either author in the future.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun Romance
Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2021
This fun romance is co-authored by Maggie Brown and Leni Hanson, and the collaboration came about in the most interesting way. Before The Last Time We Met, Hanson had never penned a book and certainly never imagined co-writing one with her favorite author. She was simply happy to be a loyal fan and reader of Brown’s eight novels. However, after reading Playing the Spy, something peculiar happened to Hanson. She became a bit obsessed with Austen Farleigh, one of the supporting characters. She could not stop thinking about the charismatic rock star from Brown’s sixth novel. She felt that there was more to be said about Austen. Hanson felt Austen was just too admirable and compelling to not get her own HEA.

Unable to let go of this fascination with Austen, Hanson finally wrote to Brown. She needed to know if Brown had any future plans for Austen. Eventually, Brown replied to Hanson and the two began a correspondence. They exchanged emails and began a dialog about Austen. Brown asked Hanson who she thought Austen should fall in love with and Hanson didn’t hesitate to volunteer several ideas. This email exchange ultimately resulted in Brown inviting Hanson to collaborate with her to write a HEA for Austen, one which resulted in creating a compassionate and caring doctor named Merritt Harrington as Austen’s love interest.

This uniquely formed duo proved to be quite capable, for sure. Austen and Merritt’s romance is engaging and enjoyable. It’s perfect for readers that love stories set in a world of power and glamor. There is no limit to the passion between the two leads; their chemistry is hot and heavy. Though Brown and Hanson throw in a few shocking and suspenseful plot twists, readers can fully expect this larger than life tale to be 100% hot and sexy.

Along with the passion and romance, readers will find themselves fascinated and intrigued by the sub-plot involving Merritt’s work with Doctors Without Borders. It is no doubt compelling and exciting. The rich, complex details lend itself to fascinating and dynamic storytelling. I especially enjoyed it; it added quite a bit of interest and dimension to the story.

Final remarks…

If you are one to enjoy grand romances rich in drama and passion, then The Last Time We Met is a good contender for your reading pile. It’s sub-plots of family drama, political power and medical emergencies make this an entertaining and enjoyable read. With its captivating and sexy women, this story is the ultimate escape.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyed the story!

I really enjoyed the story very much. When Merritt was in medical school when she first met Austen. While they both had the chemistry, Merritt was vulnerable, and insecure, Austen was arrogant and full of herself as a player. Merritt overheard her talking to another woman and basically dismissing Merritt and emotionally destroying her.

Fast forward 11 years and Dr. Merritt Harrington arrives in Australia to meet her parents while she’s on a five week hiatus from a harrowing Doctors Whit-out Borders assignment in Peru that’s giving her anxiety attacks. Austen is in Canberra to perform in front of a diplomatic delegation where she runs into Merritt again. Once she figures out who Merritt is she apologizes for her behavior of 11 years prior. The love story begins at that point.

It was a sensual connection between the two main characters. Did not like Merritt’s abusive father and his mistress Katie who is Austen’s business manager. I loved Merritt’s mother, Gloria. She was a sweetheart!

Good plot development, good characters, good ending!

Celeb romances are a common plot but this book does a great job of making an old genre, fresh & exciting. The two MCs meet in their twenties but doesn’t end well. Over a decade later, they meet again and it’s a frosty reunion to say the least. The tension is perfect as the two MCs progress from enemies, to friends, to lovers. Other side stories keep the plot tight and a fun cast of other characters add to the wonderful story. Highly recommend this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting Read
Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2021
3.5 stars. This is sort of a second chance romance, I’m not sure you can call it a full-on second chance when the characters don’t really get together the first time they meet, but they do have some history so I’ll classify it that way for ease.

Merritt is the daughter of a US senator. She works for Doctors Without Borders in the trauma team, visiting some of the worst tragedies to provide emergency medical care.

Austen is an Australian rock star. She has a reputation for bedding whomever she wants whenever she wants.

The two first meet when Merritt is in College. They meet when Merritt goes to a signing for Austen and Merritt is one of those that catches Austen’s eye. They have a nice night together but for reasons I won’t get into it, it doesn’t go any further than that. This forms a brief flashback in the book, but it’s the only one, so those that aren’t flashback fans don’t need to worry.

The two meet again in Australia. Austen has returned home for a vacation, but not before she performs an important show for some diplomats. Merritt has decided to vacation in Australia after a particularly difficult spell at work, as her parents are in Australia for her fathers work.

I liked how the authors approached the two meeting again and especially liked how they interwove both MCs friends and acquaintances into this part of the book. The side characters are interesting and provide a little bit of will they, won’t they intrigue, as well as allowing us to get to know the MCs better away from each other. It also serves to help build up chemistry between the two again - something we don’t always see in second chance romances.

I liked the Doctors Without Borders aspects to the storyline. I liked that Merritt was open about how her assignments had made her feel and that she dealt with them in a communicative manner.

There’s a couple of twists in the last quarter of the book that I actually really enjoyed.

I can’t comment as to how the authors styles have combined as this is my first time reading either author, but I wasn’t able to identify any clashing styles or weird jumps on the page, so I’d say they were successful.

All in all this was an interesting read that I think wlw romance fans will enjoy.

I received an e-ARC via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This is a well-written romance with an interesting storyline. It kept me entertained, particularly the last quarter of the book which was different and exciting.
The daughter of an American Senator, Merritt is a doctor with Doctors Without Borders, and comes to Canberra to holiday after a gruelling assignment in Peru. Austen, her love interest, is a charismatic rock star.( she was in playing The Spy) They met years ago and had fleeting interlude where Austen treated her badly. When they meet again, Austen doesn’t remember her, yet Merritt has never forgotten the encounter.
This unlikely coupling turns out to be a very warm lovestory, and their character development far beyond the cliched stereotypes. The supporting cast are well-defined and interesting. I thought Merritt’s parents were particularly good characters.
The book is not only a romance, but gives readers an insight into Infidelity, parental homophobia, trauma and the wonderful Doctors Without Borders. A big 5 stars.
