So has CJ.

Unfortunately for them, it’s the same man.

Laura Jane Williams continues her reign as the queen of the meet‑cute with The Last to Know, a smart, funny, and utterly delightful enemies‑to‑lovers rom‑com. Ash and CJ are both in their thirties, juggling life’s pressures and unexpectedly falling head over heels for the same man. What begins as a comedic rivalry — crashing dates, sabotaging encounters, and accidental togetherness — slowly turns into something much deeper as the two women spend more time with each other than either intended.

Williams’s signature blend of warm humour, authentic characters, and sharp dialogue makes this a feel‑good romance perfect for fans of Lucy Vine or Beth O’Leary. The chemistry between Ash and CJ evolves with charm and plenty of laugh‑out‑loud moments, while the slow burn of their connection will keep readers rooting for every step toward honesty. Ultimately, The Last to Know is not just about finding love — it’s about discovering that sometimes the person you least expect may be exactly who you were meant to know all along.

Fresh, smart, funny romance. Ash and CJ have fallen for the same man, and they are ready to fight for him. Think Bride Wars style sabotage, until they start to think...are they still fighting over their man, or are they fighting towards the pull they feel towards each other?

LOVE LOVE LOVE
