Hunter Markham left home to travel the world for fame and glory, finding it as a top ranked professional surfer. Now he’s returned home to the sand and salty breeze of the North Carolina Outer Banks so he can open The Last Call, a beach bar nestled among the dunes of the Atlantic. Five years ago, Gabby Ward drunkenly threw herself at her best friend’s brother, only to have her young heart crushed. Hunter is back but Gabby is content to stay far away from him and his dangerously charming ways. Gabby’s well-schemed plans to ignore Hunter go up in flames when he presents her an offer she simply can’t refuse. Working together day in and day out proves problematic for two reasons—Gabby realizes her feelings for Hunter are still very much alive, while Hunter struggles to break through to Gabby’s cold heart. What starts out as a mutual business arrangement soon turns into a passion that neither can deny. But when the pro surfing tour comes knocking and Hunter has a chance to reclaim his former glory, hard choices lie ahead for both of them. Choices that could destroy what they have built or take them further than they could ever dare to hope in their second chance at romance.

Just blah. The writing was just ok. I stopped the book half way through because I was so bored. It could be a good story but the dialogue isn't as good as what I'm used to.

On the Rocks. Wonderful story with great characters! I can’t wait to read Brody’s story!

It was okay. Easy read. Likable characters.. The story is written in both Gabby and Hunter's POV. I like there chemistry with one another. I like that Hunter made the initiative with Gabby and set her mind at ease. I like that Hunter make sure to reassure Gabby of his feelings for her. There's some good advice given by family and friends, but I keep waiting for something bad to happen. It's going to good at the moment and even though they have proclaimed there love for each other I'm not sure it's enough. When Hunters dreams and Gabby's dreams lead to different paths will there love be able to withstand the time apart? Well that's a first. Gabby is smart enough not to believe Sasha. Hunter is smart enough not to believe Gabby. Hunter gets to make his own decision regarding surfing without the pressure of his family, agent, or girlfriend. That is a refreshing change in a story. Everything that typically keeps people from staying together does not happen in this one. Which is good for them. Overall it was on okay story. The characters were likable.

Too much sex. Unless you want to read sex sex sex this book is not for you.

On The Rocks. Love it!!! Hunter and Gabby are great

Gourmet43

Loved it!. After reading some negative reviews, I might have hesitated a bit to read this story. But, fortunately for me, I decided to give it a chance and read it anyway. Good read! I liked the characters, I liked the dialogue, and the story flowed well. It’s a feel good story with a reasonable resolution to the conflict. The H/h are refreshingly mature and worked through issues realistically, meaning without the extra angst some stories have just to extend the story.

Review: Last Call #1: On The Rocks. My rating: 5 of 5 stars On the Rocks by Sawyer Bennett is the first book in her Last Call series. It is a fast-paced, witty romance with a wonderfully snarky female lead and a perfectly alpha-yet-caring male lead. Gabby has pushed her life-long crush for Hunter way deep down after his crushing rejection five years ago, but now, the survival of her deceased father's construction company she now runs is relying on Hunters acceptance of her bid on the renovation of his new bar, Last Call. Hunter knows he hurt Gabby five years ago when he crushed her on her graduation night. He just never expected to want to kiss her back so badly or the depth of emotion she brought forth. She was his little sisters best friend and practically his sister, except, you don't feel this way about a sister. Now she's spent the past five years hating him and they've done nothing but argue. He wants her but cannot get past her anger at him. When he accepts her bid all bets are off. He is determined to break down her walls and she won't let them down, scared he's going to return to the pro-surfing circuit and leave her alone and broken-hearted again. This time, it would kill her. Awesome book - can't wait to hear Brody's story. The characters are well-developed, and you will find yourself wanting to drive to the Outer Banks to find this bar and hang out with these people.

Refreshing. I loved reading this story and learning the characters inside and out.

Romancereader77

On The Rocks. This book is tame compared to some of the books this author has. It is still really good and I really enjoyed reading it. Sawyer Bennett has a way of building you up for the next series and this one definitely is no exception. I can’t wait to read Brody’s story.

Tislulu

Interesting. Well written. Interesting characters. Good story.

On The Rocks. Really enjoyed this book! Hot scenes and 'good' people! This is my first read of Benetts but certainly not the last!!

Skiplayer1

Excellent read. I loved reading about this High school crush. The characters were fantastic and the story flowed and was interesting. The sex was hot. Happy ending.

Bwalt17

Make it a Double. Pour me another shot of Gabby and Hunter. They capture our attention and we pull for them to get together from the beginning. Sweet, hot and steamy all at the same time. A great read.

On The Rocks. Good reading!

Court2NY

Lisa Whalen

Ok. This book was ok not to much to write home about . I will get the rest of the books because I have to see how it all ends

Could've been better. While the plot isn't bad the character gabby is a snotty little brat with a bad attitude. Her "snapping" all the time ruined the book for me.

LovesLoveStories

Great. I enjoyed all of the books in this series

TMats223

Great read!. I love this book. I really got into the characters as if they were real people. It didn't seem hokey and the 'sexy millionaire' type of books that are more prominent these days. This is a sweet, yet still very sexy, book. Great read!

HotPinkNoggin

Great book.... I'd give it at least four and a half stars. Hunter! HAWT! And Gabby is cool and no idiotic simpering female. Great romp! Get this book! I'm getting the next one right away...

Dutchess73

Definitely worth your time. Of course there's a happy ending... But on the way there, there is a little of everything in this book. Well written and a very enjoyable storyline. Great characters.

Quinny19

Loved it. I make no secret of the fact that i love Sawyer's books but i did wonder how On The Rocks would compare to The Off Series. No worries there this book did not disappoint. Hunter Markham is a world class surfer and he has returned home to open and run a beach bar called Last Call with his twin brother Brody. When he left 5 years ago he broke his sister's best friend Gabby Ward's heart by dismissing a kiss. Gabby Ward is now running her late fathers construction company and if she wants the business to go forward she needs to bid on the refit of Last Call. Can she work with Hunter without feeling the pain of her broken heart. Can this just be business Both fight their attraction for each other until fate takes a hand with a broken down car in the rain Hunter- " I figured out that you and I ...that we're going to happen no matter what" Gabby- The minute he utters those words i know they're true. What follows is a passionate love affair with twists and turns as people from Hunter's past come back into their life's. Does Hunter want to compete again? Can he rely on Brody to run Last Call ? Brody has his own problems in his life and he has made it clear he does not want to be a partner Does Gabby have the right to make the choice for him ? i guess you will need to read the book to get the full story ....... i have no doubt that this series will be as big as The Off Series is and i can't wait to read Brody's Story 1 like ·

On the Rocks. Liked it heaps, can't wait for Brodys story.

JennaGray

On the rocks. Gabby lived outside of social norms in her career . Good on her . Learning to handle her disappointed heart leads to a great love . Fabulous book and beautifully written.

LilleyLoohLah

Loved. I'm a huge Sawyer Bennett fan and this book did not disappoint. This story follows professional surfer Hunter (World #2) and his sister's best friend Gabby, who has crushed on him all her teenage life. At the age of 18 Gabby puts herself out there and Hunter pretty much shoots her down, right before he sets off to travel the world surfing. Fast forward 5 years and Hunter returns home, hey presto, who knew it, they're attracted to each other, there are however lots of obstacles in the way of their HEA, ex girlfriends, the urge (or not) for Hunter to go on tour again, gabby's stubborn nature. Can they choose each other? Does love conquer all? Loved the story, loved the writing (dual POV, my favourite), and both Gabby and Hunter are sizzling hot together. Can't wait to get stuck into the rest of the series.

Rhwlso

Great. I enjoyed very much and I will be downloading Brodys story to!
