Synopsis:
Michael Crown’s temper one Tuesday morning created a domino effect that he could have never predicted.
Sabrina Miller’s life was shaken up in a blink of an eye after her husband was killed in a car accident by a drunk driver one ordinary October morning.
He carries guilt that has driven him to become known as a cold and shrewd businessman. Her grief made her create dark, cold, numbing walls to protect her heart.
Three and a half years later, the single mom of three is back home working as an event coordinator for the rich and famous of Southern California, trying to create a good life for her kids. Going through the motions of everyday life without really living, her family and friends worry about her.
Until one day she bumps into a handsome stranger, brings her back from the darkness. She lights something up in him that he didn’t think he could ever have.
With an undeniable attraction and a magnetic pull they can’t seem to fight, Sabrina and Mike go into the uncharted waters of getting to know one another. She can feel he is keeping something from her. He knows his omissions of truth could break her.
What happens when the one person you can see yourself picking up the pieces of your life, is the one person who instigated the way your life shattered in the first place? When light is shed on the truth, can she forgive? Can he let go of the guilt?
Can they build on the love they found together or will the guilt break them?

I'm not exaggerating when I say I have found my new favorite author. Mayra Statham's debut novel, Crown's Chance at Love is honestly exactly how I want a book to be done. I read a ton of books and I feel like they all are missing something.. But Crown's Chance at Love meets every single criteria I look for.
Sabrina is trying to over come a huge loss. The loss of her husband just 3 years ago. She has been numb for 3 long years and hasn't really lived her life. She's a busy mom of 3, while also working as an event coordinator. Every day she just goes through my motions until she literally runs into Mike Crown.
Mike is devastatingly handsome at almost 40 years old and Sabrina immediately feels a side of her awaken that hasn't since the death of her husband. Mike is drawn to Sabrina but he also has a huge secret. When they begin a hot and intense relationship, Mike knows his secret could make the one woman he truly cares about walk away. Will their love be enough?

Now let me tell you something. Not only Mike Crown smokin' hot.. he is every girl's fantasy. He is so incredibly sweet. The stolen touched and kisses through out the book gave me the shivers. It was so sexy!
Sabrina is so strong. I admire her strength to get up every day for her 3 kids after everything she has been through. I loved seeing her come out of her shell and get her spark back. She loved so fiercely. Not only her kids but her friends and family too.
Their relationship wasn't perfect but it felt so real. That is one major thing I loved about this book. It was much more mature. It wasn't about college kids falling in love. It was about adults who had family and careers to worry about. Their lives weren't simple.
Their intimacy was INSANE. I mean off the charts insane. That is the second major thing I loved about this book. I am a sucker for a good intimate scene however they always seems so boring and dry... not the way Mayra Statham wrote them. HECK NO. You need a dang cold shower. I mean, how could actually NOT doing the deed be so dang hot! Not to mention the stolen kisses and the sweet and tender touches. It was just all so perfect.
I promise you, you will not be disappointed in this book. I cannot wait to read the rest of the series because I'm pretty sure Mayra Statham's books are just going to get better and better!
