Only One Chance had me glued to the pages right from the beginning, had me laughing out loud and gave me all the feels. Another great hockey romance from Natasha Madison.

Miller has been trying to get Layla's attention for years but she constantly turns him down. So when she bids on him in a bachelor auction it shocks everyone. Miller takes this opportunity to finally convince her that she should give him a chance.

I loved the banter, chemistry and sweet moments that Miller and Layla shared. I loved Grandma Nancy and felt so sorry for Miller during his interaction with her. It was good to catch up with the other players on the hockey team and I can not wait for Manning's book. Natasha Madison has become a one-click author for me.

I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.I could not wait to get my hands on this little gem. I looked forward to Layla and Miller’s story ever since I met them in Only One Kiss.

Four years, that’s how long Miller has been trying to get Layla to give him a chance, but she shot down every attempt he made. Her reasons ranged from not liking him to thinking he was self-absorbed and arrogant. Then the unthinkable happened while in inebriated, she made a bid twenty-five thousand dollars for a date with him at a charity auction. On realizing the following day what she did, she tried many creative ways to get out of the deal, but Miller was not about to let his chance of proving to her he would be worth it to go up in smoke.

I had a great time with the second book in Only One series. The books in the series are self-contained, however, the main characters from each installment appear in the all the books. Layla made Miller jump through several hoops prior to giving a chance. She would learn her pre-conceived notions were way ‘off mark. The more time she spent with him she saw a side to him she never would have known if she hadn’t given him a chance.

I loved Miller, romantic, caring and thoughtful. Although clueless when it came to dealing with fans of the female persuasion, he eventually learned what was acceptable and what was not for a famous person in a relationship. The fact he attempted to effect changes made him a hero in my eyes.

It took me sometime to warm up to Layla and just as I started liking her, I discovered she had a secret, one which almost destroyed what she had begun building with Miller. I couldn’t believe it after all she had put him through. Is not like it was something bad and even if it was, she should have been honest from the moment she recognised that their relationship had become serious. She redeemed herself, but the events showed the importance of honesty in relationships.

The story had several laugh out loud moments. My favourite scene involved Miller’s interaction with Layla’s grandmother. I almost fell from my chair the way I laughed so hard. Poor Miller, probably scarred for life, I know I would be if I found myself in such a situation.

The author treated her readers to two epilogues. Both were outstanding, but the second one left me salivating for the next book in the series. Now, that one, I can’t wait to see how it will play out.

Conclusion/Recommendation
Once again Madison created a story which featured relatable characters and one which held my attention from start to finish. If you enjoy romance, which features hot athletes, then Only One Chance would be a great addition to your library.
