A Chance Encounter by Nikki Ash

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

What do you get when a single mom saves a musician from a killer bee?

Sophia

When I was eighteen, I fell in love, but he didn’t love me back. The day he found out about my pregnancy, I found out about his fiancée.

He warned if I ever told anyone, he would destroy me. So I kept the pregnancy a secret and disappeared.

Being scorned has left me jaded, but it’s also made me stronger. All my love and attention is focused on raising my daughter.

There isn’t room in our lives, or in my heart, for anyone else… until a chance encounter with Easton Blackwood changes everything.

Easton

Music has always been my one true love, but when a stunningly beautiful woman saves me from a killer bee, it just might be love at first sight.

One minute she’s slapping me with her flip-flop and the next we’re naked in my bed. With every kiss, every touch, I have no doubt Sophia could be the one, until she dashes from my bed without a trace.

After weeks of our time together replaying in my mind, she appears back in my life, with a confession that sends my world into a tailspin.

She thinks the bomb she’s dropped will send me running, but she’s wrong. The last guy might have done that, but I’ll fight for her, for our love, for our family. And I’ll stop at nothing to protect what’s mine.

The heroine: Sophia – she got pregnant at a young age and on the same day she found out she was pregnant, she also found out that her boyfriend got engaged to someone else. He wanted her to get an abortion, but she refused, and he wanted nothing to do with the child. He threatened her not to ruin what he had going with his engagement to the mayor’s daughter. Sophia left town and works as a bartender at a strip joint and is a senior in college. She wants to be a lawyer, so plans on law school after she gets her bachelor’s degree.

The Hero: Easton – he is a rock star who was in a five year relationship with his high school sweetheart but they broke up a few years ago because she wasn’t honest with him. He ended up writing his most famous song called “Liars” after that relationship. He hasn’t been in a real relationship since then.

The Story: Sophia meets Easton in central park and doesn’t recognize him. They spend the night together and it isn’t long before Sophia discovers she is pregnant again. Her daughter, Kendall is now six years old. Sophia tells Easton about the pregnancy and though she expects the same reaction as she got the first time, but he reacts differently and wants to be in her life and the baby’s life.

The story is good, I like the relationship between the fiercely independent female and the rockstar. Though I think the way she is so worried about the secret she is carrying about the father of her daughter is justified. Sure, he threatened to take the daughter if Sophia ruined his relationship, but I am not sure how her getting press for dating a rockstar would do that or make the deadbeat go after revenge somehow.

This audiobook was told in dual points of view via dual narration and was narrated by Lee Daniels and Theo Sinclair. I like Lee Daniels, she has a soft, feminine voice which is very pleasant. I am not as fond of Theo Sinclair; his voice isn’t as deep as I like for a romantic male lead.
