*I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.Willow Emery is devastated when she discovers that she has breast cancer, not something you want to deal with but yourself, but sadly Willow is. Asher Wellington is still devastated of the tragic loss of his wife three years earlier and doesn’t think he will find true love again.In a hurry to leave the treatment center after one of her Chemotherapy session, Willow literally bumps into Asher. They have an interesting first encounter, one that leaves Willow embarrassed, and in a hurry to get home, and Asher concerned, and drawn to the woman he has just met.The storyline is told from Willow and Asher POV. It was a touching love story about second chances, loss, healing, friendship, family and moving forward. Will and Asher share a genuine connection, they are sweet together two lost souls who are not looking for love, but fate has other ideas. I loved the way Asher supports Willow he definitely her knight in shining armor and Willow is what Asher needs to see that he can find true love again.“What on earth did I do right, how did I get a knight in shining armor?” ~Willow“She is just so easy to talk to, and I can see myself telling her everything” AsherTake A Chance is Annalisa Nicole début novel, and there is a lot of potential here. I liked the storyline and its concept, but did have I did have a couple of issues first was the dialogue between the characters, I got lost at times as to who was talking, and had to go back and re-read.The second being the epilogue, and its hard for me to say this as I love my epilogues. After reading the ending, I was happy with the way things had worked out for Willow and Asher, and it left me with a smile on my face, but my smile was gone once I read the epilogue. I just didn’t get it, I don’t think it added to the story just didn’t really work for me, sadly I was left slightly frustrated.Despite my issues overall Take A Chance is a heartwarming love story with likable main and secondary characters. I’m looking forward to book two of the series, which is about Asher’s sister Amelia.
