This is a great follow up book to California Chances. Takes you on the ride of the last three unmarried Chance brothers and what they will endure to find the love of there lives in Gods timing..

This book is GREAT! I would recommed this book ad author to anybody who likes to read.

This book is truly one of a kind. You really did feel like you were there with the people and it was very entertaining. Once you started this book you could not put it down. The same way with California Chances and California Brides. I would really like to hear alot more on the Chance Familes they are a very large family and close knit and they truly care about one another which is rare in these times. Cathy Hake is the best author and so is her daughter. I hope that they keep writing about the chances. I will buy every book that is written about the chances.

Kentucky Chances was a very enjoyable book to read. It also carried a very positive Christian message. I would highly recommend it.

I liked this book, along with the other Chance family stories. Reading them all together was a real treat!

I loved this Book! I very much enjoyed reading it. So much! that I bought more books like it! I hate to read. But find myself not willing to put books like this down! 5 stars!

I loved this book - so much that I read it twice within 3 weeks. Lovejoy was my favorite character! Cathy Hake writes with humor, great love, and perfect doses of scripture. Absolutely ADORE this book and would recommend it to any of my friends who LOVE happy endings. All the stories in this book have heavenly endings and that's what pleased me the most. This book is Enchanting!

If you like Cathy Hake's books you will love this one. I waited anxiously for this one to come out to find out about the three remaining Chance bachelors. Was not disappointed. Am looking forward to more books by this mother-daughter pair.

"Kentucky Chances" includes three romances that tell the stories of brothers from California and women from Salt Lick Holler, Kentucky. All three widowed women find love again when the Chance brothers come into their lives.

In "Last Chance" a young widow and healer, Lovejoy Spencer, takes three mail-order brides to Reliable, California. Concerned that her sister and the other two women not end up married to a mean husband like she experienced, Lovejoy remains in California to supervise the courtships. During her stay, her services as a healer are needed on the nearby Chance Ranch. Lovejoy spends much time nursing ill and pregnant members of the family and watching over widower Daniel Chance's daughters. Neither Lovejoy nor Daniel were looking to remarry, but they take a last chance at love.

In "Chance Adventure" Logan and his brother, Bryce, travel to Salt Lick Holler so Logan can experience life away from the ranch before settling down. His sister-in-law, Lovejoy, arranges for him to stay with Willow, the healer that trained her, and Hattie, a young widow learning about herbs and natural ingredients used in healing. Hattie has accepted the disappointments and the way her life has turned out. But when the Chance brothers arrive, Logan's adventure reveals God's plan for this young couple.

In "Chance of a Lifetime" Bryce prepares to return home now that Logan and Hattie are pledged to each other. But he's attracted to Daisy. When her house burned, the young widow and her son Jamie came to stay with Willow. Bryce, the quietest Chance brother, introduces young Jamie to many activities the crippled child couldn't normally enjoy. Daisy thinks she has to solve her problems and find a new home. But Bryce can provide what she needs back at his ranch if she agrees to marry him.

All three stories are well-written by this mother-daughter team. The Chances and the women who love them are interesting, likeable characters. Despite the twangy dialect, the Hakes conveyed the dignity and ingenuity of the people who dwelled in the hollers of Kentucky in the late 1800s. The stories in this three-in-one book share the hope that despite past hurts, love is possible.

Received book free of charge.
