Depth of Field

Last Chance, Book 1

By: Riley Hart

Narrated by: Tristan James

Shane Wallace has made a decent life for himself in Last Chance. He built his own home on his mom's property to take care of her, owns an automotive repair shop, and when he wants to get laid, Portland isn't too far away. Not too shabby for the boy who spent his childhood getting bullied and feeling alone. Shane's content to leave his past behind him...until one of his childhood tormentors comes back to town.

Maxwell Sullivan never planned to step foot in Last Chance again. Here, he was Maxwell, a teen who suffered in silence while everyone thought he had the perfect life. Now, he's "Van", the erotic artist and photographer. He's only here to help his mom tie up some loose ends after his father's death and to apologize to Shane. After that, he's heading back to LA for good.

Shane never thought he'd have anything in common with Maxwell, but there's a depth to Van that surprises him. Van knows what it feels like to be alone. He sees Shane in ways no one else does. There's a shared connection neither can deny. Somehow, despite their rocky history, they get each other.

It's not long before the two are so drawn to each other that they tumble into bed - sometimes with Van's camera involved. Their chemistry in and out of the bedroom is undeniable. Except nothing is ever black and white. Shane can't leave his mom and Van's life is in LA. With two different lives pulling them in opposite directions, their picture-perfect ending might not be in the cards.

bully & victim: An unexpected m/m romance

It's always intriguing to see a bully and his victim become an item. Max (the x-bully) returns... all mature, gay and total hunk. How can Shane say no to that? The story is way more involving than how I put it. I kept wondering how these two people would eventually come together... but they do! It's definitely worth the listen to find out their story... very beautifully written.

Enjoy!

Enjoyable read.

Despite the negative reviews, some rather scathing, I was curious to see why the positive reviews contradicted them so greatly. Well, I loved it and the narrator, not someone I have listened to before, actually did a great job of creating the small town atmosphere and characters.

Unexpected Love

Shane and Van’s story is about making peace with their shared past and family. It is hot, sweet and full of facing life’s challenges together for love.

Awesome 💕💕

I'm a huge Riley hart fan, and this book didn't disappoint. It was sweet and hot 🔥🔥.

Love comes back always ...

Such a wonderful audiobook the past come to the present with love and then trust .

Many have a mental illness we all need to care more and help out ..
With Riley Harts words and the wonderful narration of Tristan James I am in heaven!!!

Perfect!!!

So sweet and lovable and hot and and sexy! I love a story with a rough and rocky start to the relationship and I love seeing the characters fall in love!!! This was so real and life like that I could empathize and sympathize with everyone in this story, yet it was steamy enough to make wanna get to the next love scene. It was absolutely beautiful I couldn’t ask for more in a story.

Enemies to lovers

Okay. The story was decent, but I felt like things were a little too easy. Hence the 4 stars. When the book started, I thought it was going to be the typical trope of small town mechanic falls in love, blah, blah... I liked the way the author took a bit of kink to change things up a bit. I also really appreciated the secondary character of Shane's mom. I felt that Ms. Hart did a fairly decent job of representing an ever-growing part of our society.

Now, on to Mr. Tristan James. He is usually a five star for me, but he almost got knocked down a star for this one. He did the one thing that really drives me crazy; like nails on a chalkboard, crazy. He said, "PROSTRATE." More than once! Really? For goodness sake, this is gay romance... and, if I'm not mistaken, Mr. James is in fact, a man. Please don't misunderstand me; he does a great job narrating the story, but this is my biggest pet peeve in this genre. Anyway, that's my issue. It may not bother others.

Overall, a decent listen.

Love it

This is so good! Wish I could find someone like this! Couldn't quit listening to it

Van and Shane are so hot together!

This is one of my favorite books from this author!! I just love the way she created Van and Shane, built on their connection and allowed their love to fill up their worlds.

I love how each character grows and learns embrace the present and let go of the past. Van and Shane are so hot together and their love so tangible that you feel like they are telling you their story!

Highly recommend!

Lovely

A touching story with a great narrator. Loved all of it. Thank you for writing a stunning romance.
