Blurb:

Fake dating my best friend? Total disaster.

With his cocky grin and devilish charm, firefighter Lee Sullivan makes every woman in our small town swoon. Every woman except for me.

Which is why I’m shocked when he steps in at the town’s Matchmaker’s Gala and outbids my crush during the charity auction, committing us to six prearranged dates.

Six dates where we, very publicly, pretend to be falling in love.

Despite my objections and our efforts to set each other up with other people, Lee is convinced pretending to date each other is the perfect opportunity to get the women in town off his back (and out of his bed), while also helping to nudge my non-committal crush in the jealousy department.

Stupidly, I agree.

After the disastrous blind dates he set me up on, what’s a few months of letting Lee worship the ground I walk on? He owes me.

Trouble is––every fake kiss, every lingering touch, every filthy word he whispers when no one is around––is starting to feel very, very real.

We know everything about each other––from my orphaned past to his irrational hatred of dolls. The only secret I have ever kept from Lee spans all the way back to his time in the Army and it’s the one thing that could ruin our friendship forever.

Because where Lee is concerned, I have learned to guard my heart. Suddenly, he’s asking for the opportunity to feel something real. He’s asking for the one thing he wouldn’t want if he ever knew the truth: one chance.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

Lee and Annie’s story was perfect!

One Chance is a friends-t0-lovers story, but there is so much depth to Lee and Annie’s relationship due to their mutual connection with the late Margo, his ex-girlfriend and her foster sister. I adored the deep connection Lee and Annie had, how comfortable their relationship is, and how easily they became “more” while fake dating after the auction. Annie has always been in love with Lee, and it just hits him one day that he has strong feelings for her; I love when a playboy falls hard like that! That first kiss was a scorcher! And I loved how Lee always told Annie that spending time with her was “the best day ever.”

However, Annie has a secret that she’s been keeping from Lee, and it could change everything between them. And it does — but I loved how Lee doesn’t react the way she was expecting him to, but was upset for a different reason. Swoon.

These two characters were so wonderfully written, and I loved spending more time with the Sullivan family!

I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.
