Taking a Chance on a Boss 2: Finale
Betrayal is unlimited.
Lies are endless.
Trust is severely tested.
Lives are ended.
Love is solidified.
At the end of book one, ruckus ensued at the birthday party. In book two, the mayhem continues. Life for Chance, Con, Polo, and Lisa is forever changed. Some for the good and some for the worst.
In this much anticipated finale, the plot definitely thickens and the twists are even more twisted. Some burdens are lifted while others are heavily laden. In this highly drama-filled conclusion of this African American urban fiction finale, the road to love has its curves and hills to climb. However, it is definitely worth all of the aches when you are Taking A Chance On A Boss 2.

wild!!
Book two was a ride, okay! I literally read this book in one sitting and could not stop until I finished. I will say, Polo and Lisa got what they deserved because they were truly awful characters. Chance and Cierra were a pleasant surprise, I’m glad they both bossed up on Polo. Con is everything!!! I loved him and he did just as I expected, he is real calculated with his movements. I loved that everyone got a HEA. The writing was good, the flow and pacing was well. I really felt like I was watching an action movie. Great job!

Rachetness on Overload
I’m sorry, this book made no sense to me. Unfortunately, the writer was not interested in writing a real story with character development and a solid plot. It was more like what out of the world thing can I make these characters do next. Chance was ghetto and as far as I’m concerned not a good mother. Who gets out of a car to fight in front of their son. Poor little Junnie was probably traumatized just fro the ratchetness that his mother allowed and displayed in front of him. Then Con was dumb. Why didn’t he have any cameras at his house or in his office at least. Then as soon as Polo discovered where Chance was staying, why didn’t he move her to a secure place. Just dumb. The whole book was a waste of my time!

Must Read
Lawdddd I didn't think this Chile could get any more scandalous and trifling but Lisa proved me wrong. She was bitter after Con finally saw her true color's and learned what she was doing to his little sister and brother behind his back. Him moving on with Chance really had Lisa pissed. Her plotting with Polo was a dumb move and it backfired on her in the end. I was thoroughly disgusted with how Lisa acted with DJ and Morgan. Monica was bitter after Polo left her alone and jealousy caused her to tell Con what Lisa did. Polo was in his feelings when he realized he lost Chance for good. He should've taken heed to his mother warning. Polo tried his best to make Chance life hell but he had no clue she knew his secret. One wrong move and Chance exposed him. Chance was a sweetheart and her heart was pure. She deserved all the happiness Con had given her. The way she took care of his little sister and brother while having her own child to take care of and going through drama was admirable. I love Prince. He kept me laughing but I love the bond him and Chance had. He had her back. I was hyped with whooped Polo ass. After Con accident. He was out for revenge. Nothing was going to stop him for the way Lisa and Polo disrespected him by taking something that didn't belong to them and the way they disrespected his little sister and brother and Chance.

When A Persons Shows You The First Time Please Believe That's Who They Are!
Dedra B, Oh my God! This was the best series for me! You gave me every emotion in this read. Chance, in my opinion has a heart of gold. After all the mess she still stayed true to who she was. Con, baby baby he was just it for me. He was loyal to a fault. I feel bad for Polo only because he had such a nasty, selfish streak in him although how many of us have either dealt o know a person like him.
Watching how Morgan, DJ and Junnie had been through so much. Kids see things adults can't sometimes. Con, realized his heart was in the wrong place, once everything got settled surprisingly Chance got to finally begin a true relationship with her mom. I just love how everyone got their just karma. Lisa who? Well I am so glad Con and Chance finally was able to breathe. Con and his siblings got the best surprise ever!!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Messy but Good Ending
I give Dedra kudos for writing a pretty good read. Although I complained that things happened too quick in book 1, I can say that the storyline remained consistent and became full circle in the end.
I disliked how Chance allowed Polo and his sheninangans to get out of character. Polo got his butt handed to him literally, he played stupid games and won stupid prizes. It was kind of hard to understand how someone like him was so big in the streets but fail to have loyalty of the boys to back him up. Con, definite kept his word and I was happy that he did and I'm glad he never gave up on a chance with his lady, siblings and his mum.
I definitely recommend this book if you are looking for a quick entertaining read with a full circle moments especially with "Buddy". We all know the world is small.

Tha Pretty Pen Pusha still the CHAMP !!!
Mannnn let me tell you this finale was it chile. I loved all of the BDE and BOSS energy that Con was serving ❤️ Chance was definitely handling herself when it came to the snakes around her. I couldn’t believe how Polo nasty low down dirty self was out here being. The boy should’ve learned to love himself and live in his truth smh. Sorry to see Shake go out like that but the one he put his trust in was his ultimate downfall.
(FYI Chance was the truth for how she played Polo when he released them videos 😂😂). Ms. Alice was the sweetest and when Dj had his moment I was shedding tears 😭 🫶🏽. Lisa honey just a sad and miserable case…. Dumny 🙄. Great ending to a great story…. Well done ‼️

Chance and Con
This book was outstanding!!!! I kinda felt bad for Shake but Polo deserved to be exposed. Should have left the video wars to the professionals. Polo and Lisa was some cold hearted individuals. They got the perfect punishments for their crimes. Monica was wrong for snitching tho only because she was jealous. She should have been hog tied to for a little while. I just love Chance, she has such a big heart that it's nothing for her to forgive those that did her wrong a time or two. Like I wasn't expecting her and Cierra to be friends at all. Major will be good for her and the baby. I'm glad Ms. Alice was ready for the help she needed to get back to the loving mother her kids needed and wanted. 💗💗

I’m so glad the series is complete because that cliffhanger from book one? Whew 😮💨. Chance went through so much in this series—I honestly thought my girl wasn’t going to catch a break.
Now Con… whew. That man was a man-baby 😭, but the way he came back for everyone who did him and his siblings wrong? I respected it. And Lisa and Polo? They got exactly what they deserved. Truly horrible people.
I loved that Chance and Con finally got their happy ending and that the once-broken family was healed and brought back together.
Also, the relationship between Chance and Prince? Absolutely my favorite. That was her real ride-or-die—and he had me laughing the whole time.
Overall, this was a really good series.

Fiyah
This series was truly a good read. I wished there was a part three because I need updates. I need to know about the twins Chance gave birth to (yeah, I said twins because she was too big to be carrying one child). Con is a book, bae, and I am glad Morgan's wish came true. Did Alice and Buddy reconnect. Did Prince finally meet his true love. DJ speaking was beautiful. Only a mother's love can bring that out. Chance is a beautiful soul with a pure heart. Polo and Lisa got what they deserved. Cierra was a true b***ch at first, but a good man can change you. Please update this series with a part three.

Good read
I enjoyed this book and series. Dedra B always does a good job! I love how Chance found happiness for her and Junnie. Con was a good man and showed Chance what real love was. I'm glad Matthew showed Chance love despite her bitter mom. Ms Pat kept it real and was a good grandma. Major and Prince were true friends for Con and Chance. Morgan and DJ was sweet kids. I'm glad Lisa and Polo suffered. Shake seemed like a cool dude. Glad Ms. Alice got clean and Chance mom apologized.

Great ending
Polo and Lisa should of taken their losses and moved on. They let anger take over. Chance was really a sweetheart with a bright future. Con was that “ninja”, cool and loving, but also a force to be reckoned with when crossed. Pollo deserved his punishment and Lisa still tried to outsmart Con, that didn’t work out to well for her though. Ms Alice… I had a feeling it was something special about her. Dedra B you’ve done it again!❤️

Karma was served and love prevailed
Polo picked up in this book still being the narcissistic a$&hole that made Chance miserable every chance he could get. He knew he lost a good woman and was mad because Con recognized what he didn’t in Chance. And to add insult to injury he hooked up with Lisa ol trifling a$& and she ended up bringing them their biggest downfall because she couldn’t move on and let Con go. I am glad her Polo got their karma in the end.

A CERTIFIED BANGA
“Tha Pretty Pen Pusha” fits this author in every aspect when it comes to her writing. She pushes that pen so hard and her writing is so cold that it’s crazy! I really enjoyed this sequel. Polo is the reason people warn you about acting off emotions. He really was acting like he was the victim lol. I can’t wait for the next release from Dedra B!

Good
A good ending of a good story. The drama, secrets, and lies of Lisa and Polo finally caught up with them. Both were really stupid. Trying to make someone be with you when they didn't want to. Chance and Con finally got their happy ending and got all of their family on the same page.

LOVED IT!!!
Dedra B., you never ever disappoint, and I mean that. Everybody got what they deserved. I really hate that Shake went out like that. Con came out holding no punches when it came to Chance, Morgan, DJ, and Johni. Polo and Lisa got just what they deserved. I loved me some Prince. Happy that Ciara and Chance were able to get on their grown act and let Polo go and squash their beef.

Oh So Good
Wow! What a great story with even more twists and turns. To say I was completely blindsided about Polo and Shake would be an understatement. I figured out in book 1 that Alice was Con’s mother but never in a million years did I think Chance’s dad would be Buddy. That was the icing on the cake. The way Con handled Lisa and Polo was priceless. So good.

Taking a Chance!!
What happens when you have the love of a REAL MAN!!
Con and Chance got the their true chance and happiness while dealing with exes that thought the grass was greener and couldn’t let go. Polos karma was so fitting, he just knew he was the MAN (NOT)
The Ciarra relationship was a surprised but so fitting.

Baby you did this and I loved every minute of it. You jumped right into the action too. Just the way I like it. I admit I started to feel bad for a little. I do mean little but he got what he deserved. I loved these books. Now can you hurry up with part two to my other one? Please and thank you

Great finale, phenomenal story
This story is phenomenal and I highly recommend this series. It is a great finale and answers so many questions. Man, the twists kept on twisting. I'm glad that taking a Chance on a boss improved so many lives while others got what they deserved. I enjoyed this one.

Chance finally got a Boss
Polo should of left well enough alone. Chance got him good with that video. Monica was really jealous of her sister. The payback Lisa got was well worth it. Chance has a big heart cause their is no way I would be cool with Cierra. Polo was my Guy he didn't play when it came to his cousin

Whew Child
Yas Yas Yas. Now that's what you call KARMA. I bet Lisa's ass never could have imagined what was going to happen to her. As for Polo - I bet he never saw that coming. He should've just left well enough alone. Just know no matter how long it takes KARMA will be coming around the mountain!!!!

This story was WILD!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️|🌶️
There was so many surprise factors in this book! My mind is blown. Con and Chance definitely got their lick back on Polo and Lisa in the worst way. So many things were revealed but I’m glad the story ended in a HEA.
Very good Urban Romance that I would recommend! 💖

Polo fumbled Chance’s heart multiple times. Con was there to mend it. There were many obstacles in the way but they survived.
Lisa tried and failed to destroy Chance, but it didn’t work. The joke was on her in the end, and I’m still laughing. True love conquers all.
