A Chance

Boxer’s rising star risks love with a man ashamed of her career. 🥊💔

“I never believed in luck. I believed in sweat, strategy, and the unforgiving certainty of my own will. To succeed now, I have to rely on this fragile, abstract thing called a chance. It feels like a betrayal of the indomitable fighter I built myself to be. I am terrified not of failing, but of discovering that my own strength is irrelevant compared to the universe’s whim.”

Unexpected Romance Sparks Amidst Crisis: While grappling with her intense training and inner demons during her comeback attempt, a new and unexpected romance ignites. This new love interest adds a “steamy twist” to her journey, creating a dilemma: will this passion be the support she needs to triumph, or the ultimate distraction that derails her path back to the top?

A Chance by Leon M.A. Edwards is the first book in his Chance Series (which is also known to include By Chance and Second Chance), and it offers readers an inspiring, contemporary sports romance centered on the belief that ordinary people can achieve extraordinary things.
Here is what readers will gain from immersing themselves in this story:

• A Message of Empowerment and Self-Acceptance: Edwards’ core theme, which runs through this series, is that your past does not define your future. Readers will meet a protagonist, often described as a “wallflower girl,” who embodies the idea that anyone can be a hero. She deals with relatable issues like self-esteem and fitting in, giving readers a strong message that it is absolutely “alright to be different and not to feel ashamed or embarrassed about it.” The book advocates for taking control of your own destiny and relentlessly pursuing your dreams.
• The Unlikely Hero: The novel features an everyday, unassuming female character who discovers an untapped talent and a chance to become a boxing champion. This provides a compelling narrative hook—a classic underdog story—where a person typically overlooked by society, a “wallflower,” gets a chance to shine and make a difference in the world.
• A “Friends-to-Lovers” Romance: At its core, the book is a sweet and steamy romance. The female lead’s journey in the ring is intertwined with her emotional life, as she falls for a “rich man on the other side of the tracks.” The relationship must overcome the challenge of societal differences and his initial struggles to accept her unconventional career choice.
• An Engaging Blend of Genres: Readers who enjoy sports dramas, emotional journeys of personal growth, and intense contemporary romance will find this novel captivating. The storyline promises an ultimate fight for love, where the heroine must fight her opponents in the ring while also fighting for the man she loves, all against a backdrop of personal discovery and resilience.

Ultimately, readers of A Chance will be treated to a passionate story that proves even the most unassuming individuals possess immense potential and deserve a shot at both great success and lasting love.
