About this ebook

In a small town, it's hard to recover from being dumped by your high school sweetheart. That's just what Briana has to do after Colin leaves her to follow his dreams. She focuses her energy into her friendships and the pursuit of her own goal of becoming a chef. Just when she finally feels like she's on the right path, he comes back to town.

Colin knew breaking up with Briana before leaving for college was the right thing to do. He was determined to leave small-town life behind forever, and that included his high school girlfriend. But when a sports injury puts him on the sidelines, he's forced to return home. Seeing Briana again brings back a lot of memories, and Colin wonders if he made the right decision. It doesn't take long for him to realize he wants her back, and this time, he wants to make it last.

    This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review. I really wanted to like this book but it was hard for me to enjoy something when it shows the woman as the one who was so damaged she couldn't have a life because she was dumped by her boyfriend. But instead of being upset about the storyline I ended up enjoying the writing and steamy scenes. I will be checking out the next book in the series to see how the storyline improves even though this one did have a Happy Ever After ending.

    Pretty good read. I enjoyed the authors writing style but I thought the overall story could have been developed a bit more. A little more angst and groveling on the hero's part would have made it better. The heroine was a little too forgiving. Although I hate those stories that have the back and forth Colin should have had to work a little harder.

    Super cute and very light. If you would like to take a break from the melodramatic, Make it Last is perfect! While the blurb promises drama, the main characters get to it pretty quickly so I wasn't as emotionally involved as I might have been but that's a good thing! I didn't want to read a downer (too many of those lately) so I was pleasantly surprised to find just what I needed. Short read but there is more to come so i'm looking forward to the rest of the trilogy and getting to know the other characters and their stories. ^.^ Good one to pick up!

    Make it Last is Briana and Colin's story. They were completely and totally in love until Colin broke it off with Briana when he went away to college. Briana was devastated, yet she recovers and goes on. After spending a year in college, she returns home and is working as cook at the local bar and grill, saving her money up to attend culinary school in Austin Texas, which is her dream. It's been 4 years since Colin broke her heart. There have been other guys, and she is currently in a friends with benefits relationship with Kent. What she doesn't expect is for Colin to move back into town. What bothers her even more is the way she feels when she sees him. Colin regrets what he did to Briana and would love to be a part of her life again, especially now that an injury has crushed his dreams of playing pro ball. When he sees Briana with Kent, he is very jealous, and when his best friend Rich pops into the picture, it makes things even worse. Cole manages to get Briana to forgive him and things start looking up, but when an old love shows up on the scene with some shocking news, any hope he has with Briana may be ruined. I really enjoyed Briana and Cole's story. I liked Briana from the get go. She was fun, hardworking, feisty, and a great friend. Cole had to grow on me, though I did wind up liking him. We are also introduced to a group of secondary characters in this book that were fun to get to know, and whose stories are told in future installments. Kara, Pete, Kent, Roni, Nicole, and Rich. They all play a big part in the story and it was really great seeing how this group of friends got along. Make it Last is a wonderful contemporary romance that was entertaining and heartwarming. The romance was great, the chemistry between Bree and Cole was really hot, and the story itself was very entertaining.

    Beautiful cover, nice tittle and idea but this book and I just did not click. When I am reading a romance book I expect either light fluffy read or some life-changing drama. This book was neither and could not hold my attention. I found myself skimming in attempt to reach the end as soon as I can so I could read something else.

    Colin breaks up with Briana before going to college because he thinks that long-distance relationship won't work and they will just end up hurting each other.
    Fast forward 4 years in advance...
    Briana dropped out of college and is working as a cook in her home town. And then Colin comes back too to work in his fathers shop. Get ready for a lot of whining and drama...
    Maybe I am weird but I just could not understand main characters. Their quitting school so easily, their apathy, how they are hung-up on relationship that happened 4 years ago, their casual sex with other people,... Common, pull yourself together & move on!
