One Last Chance

Rate this book
Chloe Mason wasn’t looking for love, or romance for that matter. She was done with that. Finding that one man who would cause butterflies to erupt in her stomach seemed to prove to be impossible. No one could compare to Domenic. He was her first love and the man she gave her virginity to. But he wasn’t hers to have. He was Sophia Dawson’s, Vixen Falls head cheerleader and Chloe’s best friend.

The last time she had seen Domenic, was five years ago, the day she made the biggest mistake of her life by sleeping with him. That morning with guilt eating at her, she had left without a word and had got on the next flight to New York to start her internship at Sloan’s Photography. The largest photography agency in the country.

But now fate had other plans. It seems her work was taking her back to Vixen Falls.

2 ⭐⭐ - Meh!
===============

Sophia, shit! How the hell am I going to tell Sophia the truth about Chloe and me? I can’t just break it off with her without any reason.

When I saw her talking to Sam, jealousy overwhelmed me. I know I had no right to feeling like that, I mean the guy’s married, and I’m in a relationship. Yet, I was acting as if Chloe was my women.

Jealousy runs through my veins at the image before me. Her hands are around his neck. His hands are under her butt, keeping her in place. This can’t be happening. Not here and not now.

I can’t blame him for Cassandra being here, I mean, he was still with her last night when we made love, and I knew that.

I know I shouldn’t be jealous. But I am. Cassandra is his girlfriend, and until now, I had, or should I say we had forgotten all about her.

Anger and jealousy consume me when I see them deep in a kiss.

What am I doing? Why do I keep putting myself in these situations?

“Fuck, man. You’ve got your hands full. I mean with Cass and everything. You’ve got some balls cheating on the boss’ daughter and all.”

I was a jerk to her today when she called me this morning. I’m a full-blown coward. I didn’t know how to tell her that Cassandra won’t give up on us, and that she’s using her father against me.

😂🤣😂🤣🤣
D.N.F

Wonder if some of these writers just copy and paste from other stories and change word here and there to make it 'theirs.'

What wasn't a regurgitation of prose I've read umpteen times (and hated) was just stupid, and shallow, shallow, shallow.
Being horny for someone is not love, people. There is nothing that makes me believe in this couple's "love" - or give a shite about them for that matter. They don't really know one another, but they like to f*ck one another senseless, so it must be love.
Whatever.

She's a virgin and has never seen a penis before, but she's drooling all over herself and ready to swallow it down. And of course she's soaking wet, too.
Aye sure.
As if 🙄.

And he - all 17 years of him - is an ace in the sack who says things like "Look at you dripping with need."
😆😂🙄
Shut the fuck up. As if a high school lad is going to notice that, let alone say anything about it. And wtf is up with the way losing one's virginity is so often portrayed? No pain, no blood, just angels singing on high and of course they are perfectly in sync AND he makes her come. Multiple times.

Sure and we're all idiots who don't know better.

This book is bad high school porn, with a heroine who shags her best friend's boyfriend because she's a selfish pig, and a hero who cheats on his girlfriend.
How nice. It's contrived as hell and lame and there is absolutely nothing of substance here. I advise skipping it.

🖕🖕🖕
Three fingers up and another writer for the 'avoid' list.

Want a book that grabs you by the heartstrings and drags you on a ride oops read that you just can’t put down. This is it! A second chance at love, where settling is not an option, Chloe and Domenic’s love story is one that endears to the heart and is a roller coaster of the written kind. Great job, great read!

Awesome Read
I was pulled into this book right from the get go. That's where I stayed until I had read every single word that was written, I even managed to get my mini movie play it my head.
There are surprises all the way through this story, some you may see coming while others you won't. Some are large while others are small. Some may hit you square in the face, while others will pull on your heartstrings. Regardless of size, or how they effect you each and everyone of them hold equal importance's within the story
The emotions that the characters go through can be felt, I actually went through the emotions along with the characters. Mind I got frustrated with a few of the character's. But all were redeemed by the end of the book.
I highly recommend this book, I don't think you will regret reading it. I personally think it is worth more than 5 stars.

Second chance love Oooh my it had me from beginning to end i fell in love with Chloe and Domenic his the star Quarterback Vixen Falls who fell in love with Chloe way back in high school.

Now Chloe is in New York on her way back home to Vixen Falls to do a photo Shoot but the only problem is that she hasn't been back for 5 years when she ran out on him.

Will things work out for them or will the past keep coming back to keep them apart.

Sweet, heartbreaking, gorgeous, sexy,wicked

I’m swooning...... what a beautifully written story of love lost, found and second chances.
I loved Chloe and Dom and the love and the attraction the two both shared for each other after years of settling for less than they both deserved. Domenic’s passion and fight to go after what he wanted, made my heart soar.

I loved this story! Its one of those great books were you can fall in love with the main characters as well as the secondary ones. Personally, I'm keeping everything crossed for a whole series (no pressure JA!).

Typical boy screws girlfriend's friend, she lights out, comes back, they get together, but he's wrapped up in daughter of money bags holding the team together. Simply written, written well, just had all of the tropes of this genre.

Writing a second chance romance is no easy task but J.A. Collard nailed it. Chloe and Domenic were never meant to be. After she gave him her virginity to him she ran, started a successful career and never looked back...until she is thrown right back into his path. As a successful athlete Domenic is not looking forward working with Chloe again and is giving her a tough time right from the beginning. Unknown to Chloe she broke his heart back then. When he finally comes clean about his feelings Chloe has to make a choice. Run again or give their love a chance.
J.A. Collard really puts a lot of thought into her books and they are researched. The storyline is developed and the timeline right on. I love reading her stories because they suck you in like a cyclone. No book is alike, which is so refreshing. If you haven't read her books yet you really need to. She is one author that does not disappoint.

This second chance romance follows a professional sports athlete and a professional photographer's young love. Believing herself unworthy and consumed with guilt, Chloe left her hometown behind and the boy she's always loved. Despite Domenic being her best friend's boyfriend, she spent one night giving into her desires. Knowing that nothing will come of it, she leaves early for an internship. Five years later, she returns home to complete an assignment. Learning the basis of the job, Chloe hopes to make amends but Domenic has other plans.
Quick read & full with all the feels!

This was another awesome book by J.A. Collard .
One last chance was full of angst , love , hurt , turmoil , redemption . You can run away from mistakes that were made in the past but life has a way of throwing curve balls and leading you right back to where you started. sometimes you just have to face the inevitable head on and hope your heart can handle the consequences.
