About the Book

Alex had her whole life planned out and moving to the US wasn't in it. So leaving her family's American Dream behind, she moves back to the Philippines. But life has a few more twists and turns in store for her. Will she find the courage to chase her dreams and risk everything...or will she play it safe to not get hurt? Chances are the path to adulthood isn't as clear as she thinks it is... "What if?" The eternal question, lived out in this unique cultural love story. Chances Are is a beautiful love story set in the Philippines and Indochina, and is rich in snippets that allow the reader to sample the pace of life and values held dear in this part of the world. The characters are very relatable because we are all familiar with teenage angst and indecisiveness. Isn't that what life really is? A blend of options and decisions from which our future is molded? Chances are, we all have had some flashbacks of some personal "what if" moments. Chances Are will take you on a journey to the Philippines through a heart-warming coming of age story set in the late 20th century.
About the Author: "I love to travel. Not only does it satisfy my sense of sight, taste, hearing, smell, and touch; it also gives me a glimpse of the intangible cultural heritage each place holds. It broadens my understanding of people and deepens my appreciation of life. My hope is that, through my writing, we can journey and experience the uniqueness of different cultures together." Birthday Ann Betsy R. Ledesma (also known as Bab Ledesma or Bab Em among friends) is a stay-at-home mom. She was born and raised in the Philippines, and has lived in Cambodia, Japan, and Thailand; where she and her husband have done mission work. She enjoys reading the classics, teaching piano, being a homemaker, and homeschooling her son. Bab is also a contributor in Gently Led, a Devotional for Young Moms; and is author and designer of The Homeschool Year Planner and The Year-Round Homeschool Planner.
