Chance - Helen Hardt

Pulled together by long-buried secrets.

Ava Steel isn't the typical member of her famous family. She colors her hair pink, practices the tarot, and runs her bakery in town without any help from her family's financial fortune. She's content in her life, and she knows who she is.until she receives a cryptic text from a mysterious stranger.

Bar-owner Brendan Murphy inadvertently became entwined with the Steel family when he dug up timeworn documents under his floorboards. When he and Ava—who, despite their age difference, he's been crushing on for a while—receive identical enigmatic messages, they're thrown together for more than just fun between the sheets.

Ava revels in her new and unexpected relationship with Brendan, but deep down, she fears her family is keeping secrets—secrets that could make her question everything she thought she knew about them.and herself.
