Her Last Request

Her Last Request

Sometimes the last goodbye becomes the first chapter of forever.

At thirty-two, Avery Bennett has mastered the art of putting everyone else first. As a medical assistant in a busy primary care office and a devoted single mother of two, her days are spent caring for patients, calming fears, and stretching every dollar just a little further.

When one of her favorite patients, eighty-two-year-old Eleanor Brooks, receives devastating news, she makes an unexpected request.

"Come take care of me on the weekends. I don't want strangers. I want someone who truly knows me."

Unable to refuse the woman who has become like family, Avery agrees-with one condition: her children come too.

What begins as a simple act of compassion soon becomes something neither of them expected.

Eleanor's grandson, Noah Brooks, is kind, patient, and impossibly persistent. Four years younger than Avery, he seems determined to prove that love has nothing to do with age and everything to do with showing up. Whether he's fixing broken steps, bringing dinner after a long shift, or making Avery's children laugh until bedtime, Noah quietly finds his way into every corner of her guarded heart.

But Avery has spent too many years believing that love isn't meant to last.

As Eleanor's final days draw near, one last request will challenge Avery to stop surviving and finally allow herself to be loved.

Heartfelt, tender, and filled with unforgettable characters, Her Last Request is a moving story about family, second chances, and discovering that sometimes the greatest gift someone can leave behind isn't an inheritance...

It's the courage to open your heart again.

I have a feeling Eleanor is going to become everyone's favorite character. By the end of the book, readers won't just remember the romance-they'll remember the woman whose final act of love changed three generations forever. 💜
