The inhabitants of Last Chance, New Mexico, could not be more pleased. Dr. Jessica McLeod has opened an office right on Main Street. Andy Ryan, the best athlete the little town ever produced, has ended his short career in the NFL and has come home to coach the mighty Pumas of Last Chance High. Unfortunately, Dr. Jess immediately gets off on the wrong foot when she admits that she's never seen a football game, isn't really interested in doing so, and, in fact, doesn't know a first down from a home run. Meanwhile, Coach Ryan is discovering that it's not easy to balance atop the pedestal the town has put him on. When this unlikely pair is drawn together over the future of a young player--whose gifts may lie in the laboratory rather than on the football field--they begin to wonder if they might have a future together as well.
With the flair that has made her Last Chance books a favorite among readers of contemporary fiction, Cathleen Armstrong draws on the passion Americans have for the traditions of small-town high school football.

Oh boy I was so excited to go back to Last Chance New Mexico. I got to catch up with old friends from books 1-3 in A Place to Call home series.
Book four Last Chance Hero was by far the best in the series because you get to reminisce with character's from past books and meet new ones as well. I love that they storyline had some football and some medical and some food what's not to love about all that in one book.
I gave this book 5 stars two times and I Highly recommend this book.
I was given a copy of this book by the publisher for my honest review.
I need to play catch-up and read the first ones in this series because they sound like some great books that I would enjoy reading. Thanks, Mary for doing this review!
