Customer Reviews

Take a Chance!!

Jill Shalvis never disappoints. I thought this was one of her best yet. Romance readers should definitely give Chance a chance! :) You can see why she's up for a handful of awards this year from Romantic Times Magazine. Keep up the great work, Jill!

A Charming Encounter!

Jill Shalvis never disappoints. Chance Encounter is delightful--a quiet, unassuming heroine who grows and matures with every scene, a yummy hero who I'd LOVE to bump into on some mountain trail. Lots of fun secondary characters and hot sexy scenes. Chance Encounter is a great way to spend an afternoon!

Opposits clash, and a CHANCE ENCOUNTER is highly recommended

It's a really bad day. Ally dated the wrong guy, and now she's been fired from her job as a librarian (who's ever been fired from being a librarian anyway?). Her car slipped out of gear and crashed into a very new-looking BMW (she's got a high deductible). And to top it all off, her landlady's evicting her because the building has been sold. At last a letter comes from Ally's cousin Lucy. Despite her gray hair, Lucy didn't let her senior citizen status stop her from a mountain bike accident, in which she broke her ankle and hip, so she wants Ally to manage her resort while she heals.The quite, unassuming Ally would never be able to manage a resort in Wyoming. The new Ally, determined to stop helping everyone else and take care of herself for a change, is up for the challenge. With less than a hundred dollars, no job and no car, she has nothing to loose. It's time to seek out adventure, to jump in with feet and live. When T.J. Chance picks her up at the airport, Ally decides she handle this hunky, sexy man as well. Chance doesn't want a city girl dogging his steps when he's got a fire to clean up after at the resort. He doesn't need this slip of a thing in his way, getting lost on trails or going headfirst over mountain bikes. He especially doesn't need the attraction they share. He likes his freedom and the ability to nurture his wanderlust. When opposites clash, a CHANCE ENCOUNTER changes their lives forever. Jill Shalvis' scrumptious hero provides enough heat to warm the coldest winter night. And Ally's attitudes about her sister's "emergency" phone call is a hoot! Although the conflict is light and easily resolved, CHANCE ENCOUNTER is a warm and appealing romance, coming Highly recommended.
