Resumen del Editor

A friends-to-lovers soul-mates story from Wall Street Journal and USA Today best-selling author Kristen Proby, set in the world of her beloved With Me in Seattle series!

Cameron Cox has mastered the art of keeping secrets. His talent for computer hacking means he’s been recruited for highly classified jobs since leaving the military. He travels the world, risking his life. But his biggest secret isn’t from a government job or a foreign spy.

It’s Maggie O’Callaghan.

He’s loved her from afar, always standing by as the friend. He’s been her rock through the hardest days of her life. But after his dangerous past comes crashing into his life and threatens the only woman he’s ever loved, he has a choice to make. Give up the secrets and win her heart.

Or watch Maggie walk away with his.

Disappointed male narration and story

Male narrated was terrible!! Hated listening to his whisper type voice. Very disappointed I spent money on this story. The best part this in the preview.

Beautiful Series Ending…

This series was the one that put KP on the map for me so many years ago. Seeing the family change and grow has been a ride. While I’m sad to see the saga come to a close, what a beautiful way to end the series. It will not soon leave my heart.

I am a huge fan of this particular series,

I loved the book and waited so long for Mary Margaret’s story, many Times throughout the story I felt weepy but for happy reasons laughter and pride, I know it’s so funny it’s a fictional story but I have dedicated so much of my time to these characters and their family it almost feels real wonderful collection I’m so happy I was up at the butt crack of dawn to purchase my audible copy work today was easy to walk through with the story in my ear #USPS #walkingcarrier

Finally Cam and Maggie

I've been waiting for this book to find out what happened between Cam and Maggie. I'm not disappointed at all. I love this Irish family and I hope we can see more of them in future books. I liked the narration by John Hartley and Kirsten Leigh. Kristen Proby writes such wonderful stories.

Amazing!

Wow… This story was definitely worth the wait… I have been waiting for Maggie and Cam’s book for what seems like forever.
These two had such amazing chemistry. Maggie is such a spitfire you just knew with her Irish energy their banter was going to be so much fun to read.
Cam totally just stole my heart. I loved how alpha he was and made sure that Maggie had nowhere to hide from him.
I’m so sad to see this series end but the epilogue just put a big bow around the entire series.
These narrators totally captured Cam and Maggie!

A great book

Another great book by: Kristen Proby. I love her books and can not wait for her next books!!!!!

Take A Chance With Me

Maggie’s ex was a jerk, and we have known that since either the first or second O’Callaghans book in the With Me In Seattle series. Cameron and Maggie have been flirting for so many books, I was waiting for this one for what feels like forever. I didn’t expect Cameron’s secret when I picked up the book. I don’t know why I didn’t see it coming but I didn’t. I didn’t expect a big blow up with Kane and Cam with this one because it seemed like everyone knew they were going to be together, but I did love the talk with her siblings.

A completely satisfying story for Maggie and Cameron!!!

FINALLY!!! I had fallen in love with Mary Margaret, aka Maggie in the O’Callaghan siblings books and am so glad she finally got her own story with none other than Cameron Cox who is Kane’s best friend! Kristen gave these two a completely gratifying story that is well written and answers so many questions we’ve had about these 2 over the series!! If you’ve been following along with the O’Callaghan books in the With Me series than you know there is a history with Cameron and Maggie. I HIGHLY recommend at least reading Dream With Me before this book as it gives a lot of background information on Maggie’s past marriage that carries over into this book.

There is so much I want to say but this book is one that uncovers so much that I don’t want to spoil any piece of it! It answers so many questions we’ve had about Maggie, her marriage with Joey Lemon and of course about Cameron. We see these 2 finally get the sweet and sexy relationship that we’ve all been pining for! Of course there are shocks and twists along the way that will keep you guessing and engaged in this storyline! The PERFECT culminating book for the O’Callaghan siblings!

Kirsten Leigh and John Hartley did an incredible job narrating this book! They brought all of the intense feelings of Maggie and Cameron to life and made me feel all the emotions they go through! Fantastic performance!!

Another great Addition to the series

I have loved the With Me in Seattle series from Kristen Proby and this is a continuation of that series with side characters and the extended family and friends. I do love seeing and hearing about characters from past books that tie everything together and bring a sense of comfort and familiarity. This is an age gap, friends to lovers story with a touch of mystery, intrigue and a long overdue restart of Maggie’s life after a disastrous marriage. Cameron is the sexy older man who has been a family friend for years, but has a mysterious job and didn’t stay in town long enough to start a relationship with Maggie, the girl he always loved. John Hartley and Kirsten Leigh are fantastic and bring this story to life perfectly. This can easily be enjoyed as a stand alone, but I highly recommend starting at the very beginning of the With Me series. You won’t be sorry!

Good narrators, ok story. Loved the epilogue

I've been waiting on Cam and Maggie's story. They were always these characters in the background of previous books and we knew there was something there, so why weren't they a thing?? I had to know where their tension stemmed from. We finally get our answers in book 5 of the lovable O'Callaghan series.

Kristen Proby knows how to create a series with likable characters and where the family is at the center of everything. I've loved all the O'Callaghan siblings, their parents, and the connections they have with the other "With Me" series. They make you want to be a part of their family. And we definitely still got this in Take A Chance With Me, but it just didn't have me loving the story. It fell a little flat. And that just may be me. I anticipated so much more and felt like I only got a portion of what this couple was.

Maggie and Cameron have been a part of each other's lives since childhood. Cam was Maggie's brother's friend growing up and became a part of their family when his family was less than desirable. Cam has a job that he can't talk about and he is overall pretty secretive, but just wants to take care of Maggie and all those around him. He's alpha in all the right ways.
Maggie on the other hand grew up with an amazing family, but is coming off the recent death of her husband who was an all around horrible person in general. Maggie wants to close that portion of her life and move on, but secrets of his life keep popping up, deterring Maggie from moving on.

I've loved these characters in past books and I still enjoyed them in this book. I just wanted more. It seemed to just develop fast. Once they committed to being with one another, they were with each other. Really no conflict and a somewhat easy relationship. I liked the ease of their relationship, but I wish there was more. More to it developing. More details surrounding her husband and his past and more of Cameron and his secret job that led him to Maggie and her husband.

With a that all said, I enjoyed Maggie and Cam's HEA, the visits of all the past characters and the epilogue from her dad. How sweet was that? And the narrators did a great job of portraying our characters. They were fun, got the accents right and brought these two characters to life. A good ending to a series, but didn't hit quite the same way as the previous books. 3.5 stars.
