Chances are…love finds you when you finally stop running from yourself. Allegra Mann has always known who she is—a fierce defender on the pitch, a loyal friend off it, and someone who never backs down from a challenge. But when her long-term boyfriend moves abroad, she’s left questioning everything, including who she might be without the life she’d built around him. Then she meets Blythe Daniels—older, self-assured, newly settled in town after a painful breakup, and absolutely not the kind of woman Allegra ever expected to fall for. What starts as banter in the stands becomes something undeniable, something that makes Allegra feel seen and alive in a way she hasn’t for a very long time. But when attraction collides with uncertainty, Allegra starts doubting whether she’s mature enough for someone like Blythe. And Blythe, still wary from her past, can’t risk her heart again unless she’s certain the future is steady, committed, and real. Time apart forces them to confront what they truly want—and who they’ve become without each other. Because sometimes love isn’t about taking the biggest chance. It’s about knowing when to take it again. A heartfelt, age-gap, slow-burn, steamy women-loving-women romance about second chances, queer desire, and finding the courage to love again. Chances Are is a standalone sapphic romance in the Chances Collection.
