Long Exposure

Arts and Lovers, Book 3

De: Rachel Carey

Narrado por: Charlotte North

Some love stories need time to develop.

When shy university student Sarah is reeling from a breakup, the last thing she expects is Ren—the bad boy who's already slept with half her friends—to climb into her bed with an inappropriate offer to cheer her up. Sarah has harbored a secret crush on him for years, but she doesn't have the heart to be another of Ren's one-night-stands. Instead, she makes an impulsive decision to literally shove him out of her bed.

Over the next few years, Sarah and Ren cross paths through marriages, heartbreak, reinvention, and loss. As Sarah builds—and then loses—a career as a professional photographer, Ren keeps appearing in her life, always just out of reach, always carrying regret for what they never became.

After Sarah's messy divorce, Ren turns up again, this time to offer her a job instead of an apology: helping to run one of his night photography workshops along a breathtaking stretch of the Canadian coastline. A week under the stars, teaching strangers how to capture the Milky Way? It sounds like a fun escape.

What won't be easy is confronting their shared past—the moments they almost chose each other, and the ones where they quietly broke each other's hearts.

Can a love story stalled for decades finally come into focus, or are some connections too fragile to survive the truth of what might have been?

A quietly powerful contemporary romance, Long Exposure explores the ache of missed timing, the pull of unresolved love, and the courage it takes to revisit the past. Rachel Carey delivers a tender, character-driven story for listeners who believe some love stories are worth waiting a lifetime to finish.
