Save the Last Text by Marika Ray and Delancey StewartMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Dalton Cunningham, the social media manager for his family's wine distribution business, is used to being thought of as the "class clown," but the truth is that he takes his job seriously. The company's director of marketing is on the verge of retirement and Dalton wants a shot at the promotion, so he makes a bet with his oldest brother and boss, Boston, that he can increase the company's TikTok following and translate that into an increase in profits. He finds a video posted by local dance studio owner Raeanne "Rae" Trask and decides to post a duet with her, which quickly goes viral. Rae is offended at first, thinking that Dalton is making fun of her, but he convinces her that a partnership would be mutually beneficial. Rae will attract new students, which she desperately needs if she wants to keep her dance studio's doors open, while Dalton has a better chance at winning the bet with his brother. Their business partnership quickly turns romantic, but Rae begins to wonder if Dalton is only using her to win the bet. Can he prove to her that she's more important to him than likes?
Dalton and Rae were super cute together, and I enjoyed the enemies-to-lovers aspect of their relationship in the beginning. They were both so hardworking and dedicated to building their businesses, though Dalton's lighthearted demeanor sometimes hid how much he cared even from those closest to him. Once they became partners, Rae and Dalton quickly became each other's biggest supporters. They had some growing pains to work through, but I found it very easy to cheer them on to their HEA.
Overall, I loved "Save the Last Text" and highly recommend it for all fans of romantic comedy. It was a great addition to what has already been a fantastic series, and I can't wait to find out what's coming in the next book.
