A Chance On Love is a western historical romance about two people, both hurt by their prior relationships, attracted by each other, but not quite ready to commit.
Ben Kincaid is the doc for Hidden Springs, and he was keeping a terrible secret. Ten years ago, his wife took their daughter and just left. Ben vowed never to trust anyone with his heart... Until Shiloh Bishop came into town... to stay, and 8 months pregnant. Shiloh was forced into arranged marriage when young with a much older man who treated her like a servant than a wife. It was to her surprise that she got pregnant, and a few months later he dropped dead of brain aneurysm, she looked forward to a fresh start... on her own. He was not ready to move on, she was not ready to be a wife, yet Ben and Shiloh cannot deny their attraction to each other... When epidemic swept through town, they must rely on each other... But when she decided to help him move on, he was both devastated... betrayed... AND elated... which only made him angry...
The attraction between Shiloh and Ben was not explained well, for Doc was a confirmed bachelor and have basically rebuffed every single lady in town (and a few married ones too). Yet Shiloh's arrival triggered a memory in him that cannot be denied. As for Shiloh, she wasn't used to men being NICE to her... having never really experienced it, though she had definitely fantasized about it. You know the pair will come together, and it's the journey that's the fun
