In Take a Chance on Me by Susan
May Warren, Ivy Madison enters Deep Haven, Minnesota feeling that she
has finally come home. Ivy has been
passed through many foster homes in her life.
She feels like Deep Haven is a place where she can finally put down some
roots.
The first person Ivy meets upon arriving in town is Darek
Christiansen. He is the prize, when she
bids on him at a charity event. She sees
that he is a handsome bachelor; but has no idea of the bitterness this man is
carrying about his former wife. The
anger, that he has for Jenson, his best
friend, who caused his wife's death, has allowed the bitterness to control Darek.
This book is written in a way that you feel part of the
events in this small town. The
relationships are so full of color.
First, there is the new and growing relationship between Ivy and
Darek. Then you learn about the older,
yet growing relationship between Jensen and Claire. Finally, you see the beautiful relationship between Darek and his young
son, Tiger. You will meet so many interesting
individuals in Deep Haven.
The story comes to a head in the final pages of this book as
a fire nears and threatens to consume this sweet town. You will not be able to put this book down as
you read page after page rushing to the conclusion!
