About this listen
Sometimes all you get is a single chance to turn a surprise into happily ever after…
Chance
One night. That’s all I wanted.
A single night to forget I’m a widowed single dad with a million responsibilities and a ton of emotional baggage. To remember what it’s like to just be a man.
I didn’t need any extra drama in my life. Romantic complications? No thanks. But after that night, everything changed. Forever…
Rowan
Having a one-night stand with a sexy, older stranger was not part of my plan.
All I wanted out of this small town was a place to recover. A fresh start. Maybe even a little New Year’s Eve fun.
I had no way of knowing my hot hookup would be my new co-worker.
Or that I was actually way more fertile than I’d been led to believe…

This book has so much packed into it and was incredibly relatable. Both main characters had their own baggage to sort out and their growth was immense: Rowan was left alone in the world, in debt and pregnant but Dragonfly Lake was her new beginning; Chance was a widow single dad of a teenager, with family that never cared for his existence but Dragonfly Lake was his new beginning too.
Sebastian York and Emma Wilder voiced Chance and Rowan and they were perfect at bringing each of the character’s personalities to life.

Storytellers like Sebastian York and Emma Wilder don't even need to be discussed, but their take on these characters is so perfect, I have to say it. York is Chance, and his warmth is spread through his voice. It's like Rowan is getting hugged all the time! Wilder plays all the emotions of a woman, from the hormones to love. They bring this story alive and it's fantastic.
Rown and Chance!!!! So good!!!

I was blown away by this narrative performance. Sebastian York is an all-time favorite of mine and really brings life to his characters. Emma Wilder will make you forget this is a dual style narration. Her portrayal of the MMC and side characters is phenomenal. I am so happy that I experienced this one on audio!!

Single Chance is book #3 in the Single Dads of Dragonfly Lake series and is about Chance and Rowan. Chance is a widowed single dad of a teenage girl. Rowan just recently moved to their small town to get a fresh start. They meet at a New Year’s Eve party, sparks fly, and they have an instant connection. They end up sharing a New Year’s kiss and a little more than that. Afterwards, they part ways because they both are not looking for any romantic complications. Chance only wanted a single night to relax and put aside his responsibilities for one night. He also thinks that Rowan is an out-of-towner, whom he never has to see again. Meanwhile, Rowan is looking for a fresh start, the last thing she wants is to start something serious given the past few years she’s had. They had no way of knowing that Rowan was about to become Chance’s new co-worker. To complicate matters further, Rowan ends up pregnant and they now have to navigate this new reality.
This was so sweet and heartfelt! I loved seeing our MCs relationship journey; they got to know each other, building a solid friendship that turned into a solid relationship. Also, I generally just enjoyed our characters... very much. Chance was such a sweetheart. He was so caring and immediately stepped up to help Rowan so she wouldn’t be alone dealing with the pregnancy. I also loved his relationship with his daughter. Trying so hard to be there for her, whilst also stepping up for Rowan. Rowan was also wonderful. She was such a strong woman, a baddie and a queen, given she was dealing with a lot; her own grief, as well as starting over, all while being pregnant to a near stranger/new co-worker. Plus, now having to get to know his daughter (and soon to be her child's half-sibling), and navigating all that came with that. She took it all in stride. I really loved watching them all come together, and not just doing the bare minimum to make their new situation work, but they all fell for each other and blended their family flawlessly.
Sidenote, Chance's grand gesture at the end had me giggling and kicking my feet! It was just so cute!!
Another great addition to this series. I really can’t wait for the next book! I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a small-town, single-parent romance with tropes that include age-gap, close/forced proximity, unplanned pregnancy + blended/found family vibes.
Narrated by Sebastian York and Emma Wilder. They portrayed Chance and Rowan perfectly and their storytelling was truly fantastic.
4.5 Stars!

My absolute favorite single dad of Dragonfly Lake! *heart eyes*
Chance isn’t my favorite single dad just because he’s swoon personified, it’s also because of the journey he had with Rowan to the ❤️sweet spot❤️ #IYKYK It was kismet and such a joy to have their story take up space in my head. The performances by Sebastian York and Emma Wilder could not have been better, especially Emma’s. Her range and versatility captured every emotion phenomenally and I’m pretty sure that’s what had me sobbing in places! I still maintain that Sebastian should always be doing duet narrations because the man is just *sigh* not that great with female or child voices! LOL I love him as a male character, but he reeeeeeeeally just can’t pull off a child, and a girl at that! LOLOLOL
Rowan’s journey to a new beginning was heartfelt and also had me sobbing many times. I’ve been down her journey before and I’m about to be deep into it again and it is not for the faint at heart. I’ve never had to journey this path on my own and that leveled up my empathy for her. This is not a journey one should ever have to take alone because it is heartbreaking, and it can easily drown you. Amy Knupp did an exceptional job making sure it was realistic and relatable. None of it was overly dramatized yet all of it was organically dramatic. Thank you for that. I appreciate my fiction realistic.
Chance’s journey with his daughter was fraught with landmines, just as it should have been for a girl of her age. He also comes with quite a bit of past circumstances to hurdle of his own, which I loved because it evened out the playing field. It made them both, at all times, equally invested. Does that make sense? LOL
I loved how Sam, Chance’s daughter, connected with Rowan, in her own way and not just as the daughter of the man that Rowan was interested in. Make sense? It’s like they both needed Rowan, but in different ways, which made the journey as a whole, that much more poignant.
I have loved every story that I have devoured by Amy Knupp thus far. She is truly gifted and if you’re in the mood for smalltown romances with all the feels, I recommend any book of hers!
4.5 easily rounded up to 5+ STARS!
