The highly anticipated third book in the Chances series by USA Today bestselling author Brittainy Cherry. An emotional second-chance romance about two broken souls who found each other once — and must choose to find each other again. This edition features designed edges and art on the inside cover.
Two broken souls. One life-changing friendship. A love ten years in the making.
When fifteen-year-old Karla East’s world shattered in a car accident that took her mother and left her scarred, she stopped believing in second chances. Drowning in grief and self-loathing, she became invisible—until Ashish Banks saw her. A boy haunted by his own demons, Ash understood darkness in ways no one else could. In cemetery conversations and stolen moments, two broken teenagers found something neither expected: hope. But when tragedy struck again, Ash moved away, and Karla was left with only memories of the boy who once saved her life.
Ten years later, fate intervenes when paramedic Ashish Banks responds to an emergency at Karla’s bookshop. The boy she once knew has become a man still fighting his own battles, and the girl he saved has transformed into a woman who learned to save herself. As they reconnect, old wounds resurface alongside an undeniable pull neither can ignore. Ash is terrified of losing her again, and Karla knows loving someone means risking everything. But some connections transcend time, and some loves are worth every scar. Now they must decide: let fear win, or fight for the love that’s been waiting a decade to come home.

Lara vs. Luca.
Introverted vs Charismatic.

Luca is the confident developer behind Desolate Dread, a psychological horror game that mines his own nightmares for inspiration. They couldn’t be more different, yet both are fighting for the same prize at the prestigious GameChanger Convention: recognition, visibility, and desperately needed prize money that could decide the future of their studios.
Thrown together at a glamorous country estate for the convention weekend, they keep colliding in hallways, backstage spaces, and after-hours events–where sharp banter slowly gives way to late-night honesty, shared vulnerabilities, and a connection neither of them saw coming. Behind the facade of competition, they’re both secretly longing for someone who understands them off-screen. They could be perfect for each other, but with industry politics, viral scandals, and a single winner-takes-all award on the line, trusting the enemy might be the biggest risk of all.
