Review: Taking Chances

Taking Chances by Laura Farr
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book in the Healing Hearts series, but each book can be read as a standalone. This is Mason and Libby’s story. This story is about Taking Chances and moving forward after a loss. Libby’s BF, Mia had a tragic accident and Libby is having a tough time moving forward with her life, so she’s headed to Texas for some lake and horse therapy to become herself again. Mia’s name fits how Libby is feeling after Mia is gone (Missing in Action) and escaping the memories and guilt she feels over still being here while Mia isn’t.
She gets to spend time with her family that she hasn’t seen in a few years while learning how to be herself again. We meet Savannah, Brody and Josh who are her cousins and one cousin’s BF plus Mason who works on the Ranch for her family. Can I just say that those “sweethearts and “baby” moments from Mason made me swoon? Love Mason even with the past that tried to cause some trouble between these two. He was patient with Libby even in her PTSD moments and you can see the love he had for her. As you see events unfold you will be asking yourself if the move halfway across the world was the best or worst decision ever?? Read to find out cause these lips are sealed. What is funny though is that history repeats itself with her aunt Claire and Libby in a sort of kinda way and believe you’ll agree with me once you read the book.
The story is told from Libby’s POV and epilogue from Mason POV and while you’ll love the story I’d love more from Mason’s POV. I’m excited to see whose next in the series as this ranch is a place you want to visit if you could.
