I started reading Caisey Quinn’s novels about 6 months ago and I have been extremely impressed with all of the books I have read so far – I admit that I have read a few. Last Second Chance is one of those novels that I really enjoyed. Not only does it have that dramatic element, it is also entertaining and an intriguing read.Van has hit rock bottom and has been forced to attend rehab at the Last Second Chance Ranch in order to save his career in the music industry. As Van enters the rehab facility, he bumps into Stella Jo (literally!) who is also new to the ranch; though she is an employee. There is an instant spark between these two characters and it is a real treat to watch them interact with each other, and to watch the dynamics of their relationship evolve.Both of these characters have somewhat tortured past; whether it be losing a loved one or being involved in a terrible accident, their scars and pain runs deep. With an employee-patient fraternisation rule; will they risk everything to be together? Can they both mend each others scars?I am a huge fan of Caisey’s Kylie Ryans series, so I felt like I had to compare this book to her previous work. Last Second Chance was a lot steamier than anything that Caisey has previously released. Where I have found that her other books have focused on the relationship between the main characters and an intriguing back-story, I felt like this books was mainly about the characters and their relationship and spark. I would have liked to have found out more about the events that lead to the pain that these characters experience – though this is just my opinion and I still loved the story. I was extremely happy with the ending of this book and it definitely made the entire story that much more of a delight to read. This book was a standalone but there will be a interconnected sequel that will tell the story of two new characters. I look forward to seeing what Caisey brings us next!
