Take a Chance on Love
She’s sure forever is a fantasy. He won’t settle for less than a soulmate. Can these playful pals open their hearts to each other?
Dr. Landry Stark is hamstrung by trauma. After escaping abuse as a teen, the saucy physician doesn’t dare reach for anything beyond the sense of belonging she’s found in small-town Oklahoma. And though she enjoys flirting with her firefighter bestie, she knows better than to give in to her feelings… until in the wake of tragedy, he steals a kiss.
Daniel Davis’s roots run deep. Convinced his parents’ wedded joy is too rare to duplicate, the six-foot-tall boy-next-door’s delight over finally claiming his beautiful friend’s lips wars with worry that they’ll ruin their easy companionship. And the tension mounts when he convinces her to move in so they can temporarily foster a child hurt in a devastating explosion.
Discovering the simple pleasure of having someone to share life’s load, Landry grapples with uncertainty when she is called to New York City to respond to a medical crisis. And though Davis is unsure where their relationship stands in her absence, even the start of a global pandemic can’t dim his dreams of a lifetime of loving her.
Can they turn a terrible disaster into happily ever after?
Take a Chance on Love is the sweetly intense fourth book in the Green Hills romance series. If you like independent heroines, true-blue heroes, and tight-knit communities, then you’ll adore Virginia’dele Smith’s silver lining.
