And One Last Thing...

By: Molly Harper

Narrated by: Amanda Ronconi

Lacey Terwilliger's shock and humiliation over her husband's philandering prompt her to add some bonus material to Mike's company newsletter: stunning Technicolor descriptions of the special brand of "administrative support" his receptionist gives him. The detailed mass e-mail to Mike's family, friends, and clients blows up in her face, and before one can say "instant urban legend", Lacey has become the pariah of her small Kentucky town, a media punch line, and the defendant in Mike's defamation lawsuit.

Her seemingly perfect life up in flames, Lacey retreats to her family's lakeside cabin, only to encounter an aggravating neighbor named Monroe. A hunky crime novelist with a low tolerance for drama, Monroe is not thrilled about a newly divorced woman moving in next door. But with time, beer, and a screen door to the nose, a cautious friendship develops into something infinitely more satisfying.

Lacey has to make a decision about her long-term living arrangements, though. Should she take a job writing caustic divorce newsletters for paying clients, or move on with her own life, pursuing more literary aspirations? Can she find happiness with a man who tells her what he thinks and not what she wants to hear? And will she ever be able to resist saying one... last... thing?

Critic reviews

"Harper brings her trademark humor and biting social comedy to this hilarious tale of heartbreak and romance, a novel that should be on the summer reading list of every woman who has been wronged." ( Booklist)

Snarky Fun

I enjoyed this. The beginning was horrifying but Lacey's actions were funny. I enjoyed the story but it wasn't my favorite book of Molly Harpers. Lacey's family was very interesting and I abhor her husband but I did enjoy Lacey's journey of growing up. I liked the way the story wrapped up and it wasn't something I really saw coming. Amanda Ronconi did a very good job narrating and breathing life into the story.

just okay

I have to admit there was some very funny parts. But otherwise the story was a little too predictable. and not quite as funny as other reviewers had said. So I was very disappointed in the overall story and humor. I have been looking for something to really laugh at and only managed a few Chuckles. I did enjoy the narrator.

Great Book

I LOVED this book! What a great story!!! And SO funny!
For anyone who's ever been hurt by a man; this book is for you!

Narrator was terrible!

This narrator distracts from the story. I wanted to quit listening so many times just because of that.

I had to listen twice.....This is HILLARIOUS!!

Would you listen to And One Last Thing... again? Why?

Yes! It is one of the funniest books I've heard.

What did you like best about this story?

The quick wit.

What does Amanda Ronconi bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She's a great narrator! Makes the characters come to life.
