Review: One More Chance


One More Chance
One More Chance by Abbi Glines

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



Not bad, just not great.. I'm not a huge fan of weak women, and Harlow is just that. Grant is ok, but his on/off relationship with Nan would be a deal breaker. Especially when his last on was after hooking up with Harlow. Mace is probably the most likable character in the book, and hopefully he'll get his own story soon.
At the end of book one, Grant and Harlow are really liking each other, right up until Grant learns Harlow's secret. The fact that she has a heart problem that could be fatal is more than he can handle right then, and he says some nasty things. Harlow leaves, and refuses to speak with him for two months. Throughout that time, he's basically a basket case, and she isn't much better. Both of them must decide if they are willing to work through the tough times that are certainly ahead, and if the other person is worth the fight.


***Spoilers***
Mace finally gets in touch with Grant when Harlow finds out she's pregnant but refuses to get an abortion. The doctors are not very optimistic at her survival rate with her heart in it's current condition. Harlow is not giving up her baby, and is willing to die to have her. Grant doesn't want her to take that chance, but he also won't make her do something she doesn't want to. They get back together and start preparing for their baby. Grant finally proposes, but Harlow goes into labor that night. She stays unconscious for several days, and Grant spends that time with their daughter Lila Kate. Harlow was thoughtful enough to write letters to her daughter, and Grant in case she didn't make it. Letters they would need as time went on. Grant received the first letter while she was still in the hospital, and told her flat out that he didn't accept it, and that he and Lila Kate needed her to wake up. She does come around, and Grant is able to take both of his girls home.
