I had to leave. I had to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life, and just get back to being me.

What I didn’t expect to find in Severn was a new life and a family I would want to be part of. There’s a sexy tattoo artist that pushes all my buttons in exactly the right way. And the people I meet along the way are fierce and loyal, easily accepting me into their lives.

But my ex followed me and is trying to make this new life I am slowly starting to build, a living hell. He won’t take no for an answer and he is starting to scare me.

REVIEW: A SECOND CHANCE is the third instalment in Jade Marshall’s contemporary, adult CHANCE BROTHERS erotic, romance series focusing on the Chance Brothers : Xander, Alistair, Malichai, Lucian and Damian. This is tattoo artist Malichai Chance, and professional tattoo model Dana Meyer’s story line. A SECOND CHANCE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Malichai and Dana) A SECOND CHANCE follows the quick building relationship between tattoo artist Malichai Chance, and professional tattoo model Dana Meyer. Dana Meyer is more or less in hiding. Having left her home in the wake of a betrayal, Dana found herself in the small town of Severn, at the local tattoo parlor called House of Ink. Wanting a new tattoo to commemorate a new start, Dana schedules an appointment with Malichai Chance, finds herself a part time job, and a place to live but Dana’s past refuses to let go, forcing the Chance brothers to take control. What ensues is the quick building romance and relationship between Malichai and Dana, and the potential fall-out as Dana is target by the demons from her past.

The relationship between Malichai and Dana is one of immediate attraction.: insta lust to love. Dana wants a tattoo, and Malichai is willing to give Dana whatever she wants. Quickly enmeshed into the Chance family, Dana finds herself falling in love with Malichai, and the people she will quickly call her own. The $ex scenes are limited but intense.

We are re-introduced to Malichai’s brothers: Alistair and his wife Mercedes, Lucian and Damian, as well as Xander and Laura, as well as Dana’s ex Derick.

A SECOND CHANCE is a story of power and control, betrayal and obsession, acceptance and love. The fast paced premise is spirited and edgy;  the characters are sassy, animated and determined; the romance is seductive and provocative.

REVIEW: TAKING A CHANGE is a short story found in Jade Marshall’s contemporary, adult CHANCE BROTHERS erotic, romance series. This is twenty year old Laura Blake, and bar owner Xander Chance’s best friend’s younger sister story line.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Laura and Xander) TAKING A CHANCE follows the best friend’s younger sister relationship between twenty year old Laura, and Xander Chance. Three years earlier Xander’s best friend, and Laura’s brother Luke died, and in the ensuing time Xander kept a promise to protect the woman with whom he would fall in love, the woman he has wanted for a very long time. On Valentine’s day Xander is pushed over the edge when he sees Laura in the arms of someone else, a push that pulls Laura into the life of our story line hero.

The relationship between Laura and Xander is a best friend’s young sister, a forbidden romance predicated upon Luke’s directive to Xander to look after his younger sister, a directive Xander takes to heart. The $ex scenes are limited but passionate.

TAKING A CHANCE is a very quick read; a fast paced erotic story of unrequited love and lust. The premise fast and furious- there is limited world building; the characters are desperate and determined.
