I shouldn’t be alive.
I should’ve died in that plane crash.
Instead, I survived.
Thrived, even.
After all, I’m a rock star and a billionaire.
There’s nothing I can’t buy.
Nothing, except peace.
And when it all comes crashing down around me…
The guilt.
The pain.
The sorrow.
That’s when she appears.
The one woman I’m not allowed to love.
I needed her to fill the void after everything was lost.
There she was, ready, and grieving too.
Both of us are broken, shattered people.
So why does she make my heart want to beat again?
I need a new reason to keep breathing.
And I think that reason—is her.
Famous Last Words is a story of pain, forgiveness, and the faint, lingering hope of rekindling a love that once meant everything.
Customer Reviews
So good
I know it's said that this book is a standalone but I really really hope that it becomes a series cause so. many. great. characters!!
There were so many twists and turns in this story, I honestly wasn't prepared. The angst is high in this on. Brahms and Seraphina's story really hit me in the feels.
Hit it out of the ball park!
Wow, there are almost no words to describe this new release from Claudia Burgoa. It really broke my heart with all the hurt that Brahms and Seraphina have suffered. From their own families to each other, the lies and challenges they had to work through kept the reader thoroughly engaged. This was an emotional and riveting read. Thank you to this author for such a fantastic book.
An Emotional Ride
Famous Last Words by Claudia Burgoa is an emotional upheaval in the form of a book which tears you apart then puts you back together again. This is the story of Serephina, who was at risk of losing the rehabilitation center that she had established with a friend on her family’s land. Her father had died only for her to discover that he had double mortgaged the property and squandered all of his family money. But a miracle happens. A celebrity wants to rehabilitate after an accident in isolation and is willing to pay enough to bail them out. When the celebrity arrives, it turns out to be her childhood friend/famous rockstar who she believes is responsible for the plane crash that killed her brother and sister and put her father in a wheelchair for the remainder of his life. Brahms has suffered PTSD since the plane crash that killed his best friend and band mate and his sister. When he realizes where his family had arranged for him to rehabilitate, he seizes the opportunity to try to win back the woman that he had loved and lost because of secrets and lies. But Serephina fights him at every turn and has a secret too. When those secrets are revealed, they would have to figure out if they can put each other back together again. That is exactly what this book did to me. It was a really emotional ride with a great deal of mystery. As the mystery is gradually solved the characters find hope again. I felt pretty wrung out by the end of this book, but in a good way. I definitely recommend this book to readers who enjoy emotional, angsty stories with happy endings. I am voluntarily writing this honest review after reading an advanced complementary copy thanks to Grey’s Promotion and Claudia Burgoa.
