One More Chance (Chances #2) by Abbi Glines

One More Chance was an okay read to me. It wasn't anything spectacular nor was it horrible. It was okay, good even and there were parts that were great. I thought it was a good ending for Grant and Harlow. Grant was my favorite characters in the Rosemary Series and I was glad he got his happy ending.

There are sad parts but they didn't make me cry or anything like some readers.  I like how all these playboys and players that I met in the very first book Fallen Too Far are getting married and having babies. It goes to show that everyone has to grow up at some point. I liked how past characters, Rush/Blair, Della/Woods and Bethy all made appearances in this book. I like knowing what happen to past characters and I like seeing they all still have a close bond.

I think the biggest shocker to me was Nan. She was worried about Harlow and it showed in this book. She put their differences aside for a minute to help Harlow and that shows alot about a person. I liked reading a little from her POV. I did hate her in the first book, but after reading her little snippet, my opinion changed of her. I sort of liked her in a way. I would even like her to find her happy ever after. Although, she would need a strong guy to handle her. I don't think she is all that bad, she just has had a shitty life. She needs someone to show her she is capable of being loved.

Harlow and Grant had been though a lot and I glad they got through everything. I was happy to see them with a family and married. Good ending to their love story.

One More Chance (Chances #2) by Abbi Glines

Synopsis:
Grant Carter did everything in his power to convince Harlow Manning that he was a good guy. More than a smooth-talker and someone she could trust. He had to overcome his reputation as a playboy, and his history with Harlow's half-sister, Nan, a woman with a reputation of her own. Harlow had taken the chance, falling hard and fast for the guy who thrilled her with his all-consuming desire. After a lifetime of avoiding bad boys like Grant, she had opened herself to the possibilities of love. But a life-changing secret has torn them apart, and now Grant and Harlow must decide if they have enough fight to make it work - or if the pain of betrayal has permanently destroyed their future.

Teaser 1: 
"We get to hear the heartbeat next week," he finally said, breaking the silence. There was pained to his voice, as if he weren't sure what he thought about that.

Teaser 2:
"The doctor said it was OK," I reminded him.
He nodded. "Yeah, I heard him."
I reached over and ran a finger down his arms and wrapped my hand around the muscle, which flexed as he gripped the steering wheel more tightly. 
"What are you doing?" he asked in a shaky voice.

Take A Chance (Chances #1) by Abbi Glines

Take A Chance is a spinoff from the Too Far series by Abbi Glines. 

I loved Grant in the Too Far series. He was one of my favorite characters in the book. He was different and didn't act like the other boys in the books. I was so excited when I learned he was going to get his own book and love story. However, I was let down big time. I had high expectations and I shouldn't of.

Harlow and Grant met in the third book in the Too Far series when Rush and Blair were getting married. I was glad Grant was finally getting away from Nan. She annoys me and doesn't deserve someone like Grant. Harlow is sweet, insecure and constantly needs Grant to remind her that he wants her.. Harlow is Nan's half sister and Nan hates Harlow and Harlow hates Nan. Harlow has always had their dad's love and Nan doesn't like that. Harlow just thinks Nan is a bitch.

The book starts off with some past encounters between Harlow and Grant. Grant tells Harlow him and Nan are over. He wants her and blah, blah, blah. Grant leaves Harlow after a steamy night together. Then, its present day and Harlow is living in Rosemary with Nan. Their dad bought the house for Nan and told her she had to share it with Harlow while he's was on tour. Harlow doesn't want to stay there. She would rather be in LA. 

On Harlow's first day there, she runs into Grant as he is coming out of Nan's room. Harlow is hurt and confused. Grant spends a couple of chapters trying to get Harlow to talk to him and forgive him. Harlow finally does. They have some steamy sex and talk. Grant tells her he wants her and only her. He was scared before of loving her but not anymore. He is done running from her. 

Also, Harlow finds out her dad lied to her. Her mom is really alive and didn't die in a car accident. She was in a coma and now has no memory of anything. She also has a brother, Mase, that seems sexy and maybe should have his own book. I would love to get into his head. Nan is still a mean bitch. She needs to find a guy that can handle her. As much as I hate Nan, I would love for her to have her own story and to see why she is like she is. Bethy is still dealing with Jace's death. Blair and Rush make a couple of appearances too with baby Nate. Dean, Rush's father and Slacker Demon rock god makes an appearance. I got to see him in a different light in this book too.

However, now that I got to read about Grant and get into his head, I can honesty say I don't like him that much anymore. He seemed so different in the other books. He seemed sweet, caring, good-hearted and gentleman type of person but this book made him seem whorish, soul-less, confusing, an asshole and someone I wouldn't want to be with or deal with him. He wants Harlow to forgive him but he goes to a bar, picks up 2 girls and takes them back to his house. Nan and him being together makes more sense than Harlow and him. I just didn't like him in this book at all. Maybe in his next book he will be the Grant that I fell in love with in Too Far. Harlow was also very annoying in this book. She knows Grant has a past but gets mad at him every time brings up his past. She was very insecure and it made it seem like she was really young and not almost 20.
