Last Laugh, Last Cry opens in the middle of a battle scene. Raquel’s ex –common law husband and son’s father is dragged from the bed and beaten within an inch of his life. The reader cannot fully appreciate the motive behind the action; the only clue provided is, "I mean this bastard used to beat on me because he was the one cheating on me!" Through out their relationship he had cheated on her and at 40 years old, and a host of other "transitions" she had succumb to within her life, she decides to "pay back" the one who caused all of the pain she had endured.
Dominique's Thoughts and Recommendation:
I thought this book was outstanding!!!!!! Kudos to the author Xanthe. She did her thing. Raquel, the main character, goes through her fair share of ups and downs. Not to mention, she has a son to look after. This books represents all the single mother's that just want to be loved, be happy and keep a roof over their child's head. Every woman has her fair share of heartaches and we see exactly how Raquel experiences hers. This book will keep you on your toes wondering, what next. It's not like all the other gritty hardcore books. This books will hit home for so many women, not to mention it has a surprising ending. So go out and support this author!!!!!!
