WORTH THE CHANCE
A New Adult/Adult Contemporary Romance
NYT Bestselling Author Vi Keeland
Meet Liv Michaels
It may have been seven years, but I’d know him anywhere. Sure, he’s grown, filled out in all the right places, but his captivating blue eyes and cocky grin are exactly the way I remember. Even though I’d much rather forget.
Liv Michaels is almost there. She’s smart, determined and weeks away from landing the job she’s dreamed about for years. Time healed old wounds, even her broken heart from the devastation of being crushed by her first love.
Meet Vince Stone
Women love a fighter, especially a good one. Lucky for me, I’m damn good. But there’s one woman that isn’t interested. Not again, anyway.
Vince ‘The Invincible’ Stone is every woman’s fantasy…strong, sexy, confident and completely in control. Growing up surrounded by chaos, he’s learned never to get too attached. Love will drag you down. He adores women, treats them well, puts their own needs before his own…for the night anyway. With the biggest fight of his life coming up, his focus should be on training.
When fate brings Vince & Liv back together again, there’s no denying the chemistry is still there. But can Vince erase the old scars their past left behind? Or will Liv hurt him instead?

Worth the Chance was a steamy fighter read. If there's anything that Keeland delivers on.. it's steamy, swoony scenes! I love the reconnection of a childhood romance, the flashbacks were sweet, and overall, I love fighting books. I also loved that we got to catch up with Nico and Elle. With that being said, this wasn't one of my favorites. I was missing the angst!!
I didn't feel a connection to the characters or the romance. I wanted more, especially since the potential is there for Vinny to be such a broken yet fixable character. I was excited for his character, but it seemed like he was all alpha with no soft side. I also didn't care for Liv, well I can't say that.. I just didn't get a good feel for her. I was more empathetic to her in the flashback scenes than the present.
Overall, it is a good read with some pretty passionate scenes. Vinny is a sexy alpha-male. My expectations may have been a bit high for this book, or maybe I just had a different story in my mind for Vinny. I look forward to reading Jax's story, and hope to have a better connection with it.

Vi Keeland is a native New Yorker with three children that occupy most of her free time, which she complains about often, but wouldn't change for the world. She is a bookworm and has been known to read her kindle at stop lights, while styling her hair, cleaning, walking, during sporting events, and frequently while pretending to work. She is a boring attorney by day, and an exciting smut author by night!
