**YOU MUST READ BOOKS 1-3 IN THE DOUBLEVERSE SERIES FIRST**

Bridget, you managed to give me hope and then take it away. My heart broke for Echo during this book but I loved getting to read his story even though I cried. 😭😭 As I've said before this is my sign of a great writer, they're able to make you feel everything and I did. I can't wait to read Whiskey's story but until then Echo's story and how it ended made me very happy for him. ❤️❤️

I dont know how I feel after reading this. My heart broke in two. I had so much hope after reading book 3 😭😭.

I really like how the series seems to focus on different characters in each book, but you definitely have to read them in order as there is an overarching story throughout the books.

I'm happy Echo got his happily ever after, even if my heart is still a little fragile after reading.

I can’t even begin To say how much I love this series. Yes they are shorter books but damn they pack a punch. I loved Echos story so much. And the tease for the next book, omg.

[Sherry Norris · Rating 5 out of 5]

Every time I read a book in this series, my mouth drops. For an author to keep me personally involved in a story after three books has to be an amazing writer. I asked for the book itself. I was involved in the story. It was hard for me to put down and it had twist and turns in it that I didn’t see coming. And if anyone is interested in reading this book, I do highly recommend it, but you need to start from book one.

It just keeps getting better!

I swear this woman just loves to toy with my emotions! Once again, Bridget manages to have me sobbing, laughing, sobbing again, and clutching my imaginary pearls in utter shock. Just when I think she can surprise me no more, she goes and whips out a determined man with a huge heart and his psychopathic, Ziploc baggie loving friend. Bring on Whiskey!

First, I was sad, and then I was like, "What is happening and then I was big mad, and then i was chill. There are so many emotions in one book, Bridget sure knows how to put her readers through some turmoil, and the spice was perfect. Part of me can't wait till the next book, and part of me is so scared cause you never know what curveballs you're gonna get.

My heart may have been broken and then put back together. While crying over Romeo and my heart breaking for Echo. In comes the sassy Bridgette to put it back together. Plus now im wondering just how sane Whiskey is.
Double Chances is a lost love,second chance, friends to lovers, touch her and ☠️,revenge, slow burn, with light spice. You definitely need to read the first three books in the series. Which are just as good. And check the trigger warnings if you have any.

This book started crazy. Was not expecting what happened to Romeo shocked me. I thought it was a joke. I thought other stuff was going to happen. Was not that spicy .

*cough cough* Good laaaawwwwwd, Bridget, what haaaaave you done?!?!

First things first, buy tissues. Lots of it!! Come prepared because your emotions will be played with.

We find out what Romeo’s fate is and as always, Bridget does not hold back. FULL THROTTLE

We also get some closure for a well loved character and a second chance for another.

This book was so different with the Slowburn but ooooooohmg did it burn?!? Yes it did, soooo effing good!!!

Such a wild, roller coaster ride. Humor by the bucket loads. Heartbreak. Anger. Vengeance. Healing and so much love!!!

The characters are just 😍🤌 Echo is the best man to ever grace our pages!!

* I 100% recommend reading the first three books in the series before reading this one in order to get the full experience.
** I also, highly recommend reading this book while listening to the playlist 👌🤌 it elevates everything to the point of combustion!!

Holy molly! This book was a roller coaster of feeling! I absolutely enjoyed every single second of it! Bridget you brilliant woman, I have fallen more in love with Echo. I loved reading how Echo lost everything, but yet found everything he needed and wanted. This book is definitely different than 1-3 but still an excellent read. Echo and Simone are so perfect together, I love their chemistry, banter and how one person can fill the empty space in another.
The book was so well written, the flow was perfect. Characters developed was seamless. An absolute 5⭐️ 3🌶️! I highly recommend you read books 1-3 before reading this one! I can’t wait to read Whiskey story!

Spoiler Alert! 🚨

I think this may be my favorite book in the Double-verse so far! This book picks up with Romeo and Echo and leaves with Echo and Simoné. How this happens… read to find out!

Bridget Hale made me cry 😭, made me laugh 😂 and made me hot 🥵 all in the span of a couple pages!

I’m so impressed with the creativity behind Beckett’s reckoning! It’s been a long time coming!

The banter between Echo and Simoné is on point! I love the Golden Retriever mentality and feel like he must be the perfect book boyfriend!

Ready to bring it home with Whiskey’s story!

[Miracle · Rating 5 out of 5]

The Double-verse continues!
The continued epic story of Dabria and her amazing men.
Echo has finally given in and our Romeo is hanging on. But after finally letting his feelings be known, Echo loses the man he loves. Yet comes to find his heart is also somewhere else.
Dabria is still on her journey for closure and peace and you better buckle up bc you are in for a ride!!
The continued way she wraps her story and gives it live is truly amazing and worth every page I turned! I can't wait for the next "Chapter" in our Beloved Double-verse story!!!

[Bree ♡︎ · Rating 5 out of 5]

*make sure you read the first three books in the series before this one!*

I’m absolutely in love with the DoubleVerse and where the story is going. In Double Chances we learn more about Echo, a side character we have seen since book one. Every new book that comes out in this series becomes my favorite and I cannot wait for more to come from Bridget 💜

I wasn't emotionally prepared for what takes place in book 4 Double Chances. Bridget Hale has done it again, she made me feel all the feelings and regret nothing !!! I loved the growth, the heartbreak, the mourning, even the love after loss. This series is one of my favorites and with each book I fall more and more in love with the characters!!! Echo deserved his happiness and his second chances !!!

[Tanya · Rating 5 out of 5]

If there’s one thing I know, it’s that Bridget can break my heart and put it back together again all in one book. I still have tears in my eyes that are both happy and sad after completing Double Chances, don’t say I didn’t warn you to have tissues prepared.

If you haven’t read books 1-3 in the series, I highly suggest you take your pretty behind and get to it, especially to get the full effect of book 4.

This book is mainly focused on Echo, our sweet golden retriever of a man. Tragedy may have struck but he came out full of love and life in the aftermath of it.


Without giving spoilers away, please binge books 1-4 and thank me after.

Once again Bridget has stolen my heart!!! I’m not sugar coating anything you are gonna cry and want to stop reading!! I know I stopped for an entire day but I picked it back up and kept reading!! I laughed so hard my emotions were all over the place! Make sure you read books 1-3 before getting into this one or you will be thrown into confusion! Echo’s story is so emotional but where is the fun in being a normal character 😜. Not only has Bridget given you an amazing story she also introduced a new character and you gonna love this character just as much as you love Dadria!! Can’t wait for the hunk Whiskeys book to come out!!! Happy reading 10/10 highly recommend

Bridget broke me. She broke my heart. I have no words. This book was good!! The ending was amazing. Can’t wait for more of Whiskey, but he does scare me a little bit lol.

[Jessica James · Rating 5 out of 5]

I adore this series so much!!!!! This book will make you sob and want to throw things(I know I did). You get thr conclusion from book 3 and so much more. The spice is phenomenal as always. You get to meet a new character and hurts and wrongs are dealt with. Your emotions will be all over the place but i hope you all love it as much as i did. Now i need more Whiskey!

[Jenn Z · Rating 5 out of 5]

Binge it you won’t be sorry!

Don’t think you’ll come out of this book without some spilled tears and hollering

I absolutely love the new character and hope to see more of her

I won’t spoil to much but let’s just say our girl goes feral and I loved it

[Sonia Odum · Rating 4 out of 5]

An Emotional Rollercoaster…and I LOVED it!!

I loved getting to see things from Echo’s pov. He has quickly become my favorite adorable lover boy.

I had to slowly come to terms with the heartbreak that I was put through! I kept telling myself it wasn’t real…but alas… it was totally real! Why would you break me like that!?!

At first, I wasn’t quite ready for this book to go in the direction it did. I was very angry…not gonna lie, still kind of am… but I’m working through it ok!?

As I progressed through the book and I saw how things change for the better for Echo, I decided to be ok with where it went.

I loved seeing the conclusion of Dabria’s storyline and the way she decided to take back all the control.

Very well written and definitely an emotional roller coaster! I LOVED IT!!

[Brittany · Rating 5 out of 5]

As always Bridget did an amazing job. It picks up right where she left off in Double Redemption which I love. This story is filled with so much witty banter its insane. I do have to put in a warning you will cry no if and/or bits about it. I'm still mad about that. Echo goes through a whirlwind of events and emotions that could make or break a person. I'm excited to see what happens next and where this story goes.

Bridget how could you! Collecting your jar of hearts over there I see.

But no seriously I love this series so much there aren’t enough positive and great words to describe your work. You out do yourself in every book and always have me wanting more. I never want this series to end. Thank you for becoming an author.

[Read, Run and Rescue · Rating 4 out of 5]

🤩 Romeo Romeo where for art thou??? Well I know but kinda sad even though he was kinda a man whore🤣 This series gets better as it goes. I was super stoked to not have to read little death angel a bunch in this one. I like Spicy Margarita way better. Glad to see Echo get a HEA even if it wasn’t with who I had hoped for. This one wasn’t as spicy 🌶️ but it was still good.

[Lex · Rating 4 out of 5]

No lie, I don't even care about Dabria now. I want the next book because I just KNOW it's Whiskeys. I could go for the rest of the series without being in her head again. I understand she is part of the story and plays a vital role. I just personally like hearing more from the guys than having to go back to her. This has been a very entertaining series, and this book was no disappointment outside of the Romeo situation, but Bridget already knew I would fight for him. Having even more of Echo's story was heartwarming; he deserves all the love!

[Tjode Pollock · Rating 5 out of 5]

I love this book like all of her other books I just didn't like what happened to one of the main characters I wish things wouldn't have happened to him the way they did but still an outstanding book as always
