Historia
I thought judging the Willow Waters garden contest would be fun. A nice way to get to know a few more of my neighbors in this beautiful Cotswold village. I’d get to see how the best gardens grew, maybe even nab a few tips for my own garden. I did not expect the competition to be to the death.

Historia
Peony Bellefleur runs Betwitching Blooms, the charming flower shop in a picture-perfect Cotswold village in England. Her flowers seem to make the sick improve, wedding days happier, and birthdays more special because she infuses her bouquets with a little magic. Peony’s a witch in a village that seems too perfect to be true. Probably because it is. She’s got her hands full between running her flower shop, managing her mother—who’s a medium with a habit of conversing with the dead wherever she happens to be—and helping her protégé to embrace her newfound powers.

Historia
Sparrow “Ro” Meadowcroft is about to get the promotion she’s always dreamed of–curator of the museum where she works. She loves old things and the history that surrounds them, so when a patron leaves some items to the museum, Ro is eager to dig in. The sword in the stone that comes with those items is clearly a joke. A well-made but obvious replica meant to be a conversation starter. Why anyone would think that belonged in the museum is beyond her, but she can’t resist taking a crack at it and finding out if she’s the chosen one. And as it turns out...she is.

Who you want people to be makes you blind to who they really are. It’s been a year since Billie Flanagan — a Berkeley mom with an enviable life — went on a solo hike in Desolation Wilderness and vanished from the trail. Her body was never found, just a shattered cellphone and a solitary hiking boot. Her husband and teenage daughter have been coping with Billie’s death the best they can: Jonathan drinks as he works on a loving memoir about his marriage; Olive grows remote, from both her father and her friends at the all-girls school she attends.

Now all Charles wants is to get his kids safely stowed away so that he can go to China and attempt to reclaim his family's ancestral lands - and his pride. Outrageously funny and full of charm, The Wangs vs. the World is an entirely fresh look at what it means to belong in America - and how going from glorious riches to (still name-brand) rags brings one family together in a way money never could.

Historia
Award-winning poet Marisa de los Santos crafts an irresistibly touching debut novel. Love Walked In is a contemporary tale, steeped in nostalgic, cinematic charm, of love in all its forms. Unapologetically idealistic about love, Cornelia Brown appears to catch the break of a lifetime when the dashing Martin Grace, her own personal Cary Grant, comes strolling into her life. But it is Martin's connection to 11-year-old Clare Hobbes that touches Cornelia's heart in ways she never imagined.

A Tasty Teaser to a more full story to come later
This is a short little novella, although it seemed even shorter than that, more of a tasty tease of a longer story to come. I am new to this series so I started with the prequel, which is this book and am intrigued to see what happens to these two kids in the future. Well developed characters with distinct personalities and very likable wrapped into the tease of a very interesting story. I'm definitely curious to see what happens.

Where it all began!
Where it all began!
This is #0.5 in the Take A Chance Series.
HEA with No cliffhangers!
These are about the members of the Chase family. I suggest reading them in order to get the best experience.
Content Warning:
There is no sex, just good chemistry.
Ebook currently free on Amazon.
♥ Story ♥
This is a Prequel to the whole Take A Chance Series. It's a short novella that let you see just how Jack and Daphne met. Their names are so close to Jack and Diane that I can't help myself from calling them that. Please keep in mind the time frame of this story. Things that are acceptable today, were very much NOT in the 70's.
Jack ❤ Daphne
All of this story takes place on June 17, 1976 upon a Greyhound bus heading from California to Oregon. 18 yr old Daphne is on her way to live with her great aunt after finding herself in an unplanned family way. Jack is on his way to Eugene in an effort to re-write his life story. These two just connect and its quite touching.
Its short but insightful. I will probably want to go back and re-listen to Chance Encounter, after I'm finished with #4 because it will probably carry more weight at that point. It's a great bonus to this delightful series. Take a Chance!
The angst is low, which I appreciate. The two love birds do face some settling down issues. I think Caitlyn is a bit of a late grower in that department, but it all works out in the end. We get to meet a good chunk of the other siblings in the beginning of this story. I look forward to all of their stories!
♥ Author ♥
Nancy Warren pulls the heartstrings even for a short prequel!
♥ Narrator(s) ♥
Teri Schnaubelt has a very pleasant voice. This is my first audiobook performed by her and I quite enjoyed it.
♥ Audio Production ♥
Normal speed was fine.

Daphne/Jack Meet & How They Got Rambuctious Brood!
If you could sum up Chance Encounter: Take a Chance: Prequel in three words, what would they be?
Beginning of Romance
What other book might you compare Chance Encounter: Take a Chance: Prequel to and why?
Kiss a Girl in the Rain: Take a Chance, Book 1
Iris in Bloom: Take a Chance, Book 2
Blueprint for a Kiss: Take a Chance, Volume 3
Every Rose: Take a Chance, Book 4
This is a wonderful series that I hope Nancy Warren continues to write & Teri Schnaubelt continues to perform them.
Shannon Stacey's Kowalski series are similar.
Have you listened to any of Teri Schnaubelt’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Yes, Terri Schnaubelt/Lynn Barrington is one of my top 2 favorite performers. Her performances are ALWAYS well suited for the books she chooses to perform. Professional, believable and super duper talented.
If Teri is the narrator, I'll pick it up. Yes, she is that good.
Any additional comments?
I PURCHASED this book for the reasons listed above.

Where it all began
I really enjoyed this series, it was engaging, full of love, wit and humor. The prequel ended up being the last book I listened to, but it didn't matter. I enjoyed every book in the series.

Very short, good prequel
Very short prequel for the Take a Chance series. I love the way Jack and Daphne meet. Daphne has grit and determination and Jack is so caring. I'd love to know their whole story!

Sweet Beginnings
This is a short but very sweet encounter between two young people on a bus. It sets the stage for the series and is utterly charming.
I am especially impressed with how Nancy Warren manages to cram so much information into this 24 minute novella without anything feeling rushed.
The narration by Terry Schnaubelt is really well done. There is a lot of dialogue and it is completely seamless.
All in all this is a great start to the Take A Chance series.
I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Nancy Warren. The gifting of these audiobooks did not affect my opinion of them.

Short but to the point Daphne and Jack connect
Getting the beginning of this family was wonderful. Seeing how they (Daphne and Jack) meet and watching as their connection grew over that short period of time was sweet. This was a short snippet but it held some answers. Teri Schnaubelt did a good job giving voice to both Daphne and Jack. She provided a convincing backdrop for these two characters that birth a new series of love.
