Take a Chance on Me

Logan's Legacy #2

by Karen Rose Smith

WHEN FAMILY MATTERS

As a child, Adam Bartlett's not-so-loving adoptive family forced him to erect impenetrable walls around his heart…until blond beauty Leigh Peters came along and started knocking them down. But just when those walls had all but disappeared, Leigh ended their budding relationship, crushing Adam's already fragile heart….

Nearly ten years later, Adam's success as a CEO paled in comparison to the news he could potentially save the life of the young half brother he never knew existed. Then Adam learned Nurse Leigh Peters was handling the family's case, and long-buried memories came flooding back. But would Adam risk using this coincidence as the second chance to secure a once-in-a-lifetime passion?

Reviews

[Jennell Brown · Rating 4 out of 5]

Okay, so this book is apparently book 2 of the Logan's Legacy series. I read the first book, Larissa story and now I’ve read this one. There are a few inconsistencies with the books, mostly when it comes to Larissa and Adam’s biological father’s story. The inconsistency could be because both books were written by two different authors.
It was an okay read. It didn't really grab my attention much but they were some parts of the book that I really enjoyed. I'm about to read the third book now. Hopefully, it's better.
