  A reported ${17~}$MeV boson, which has been proposed as an explanation to the
$^{8}$Be and $^{4}$He anomaly, is investigated in the context of its possible
influence to neutron stars structure. Implementing a $m_{X}$=17 MeV to the
nuclear equation of state using different incompressibility values K$_{0}$=245
MeV and K$_{0}$=260 MeV and solving Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations, we
estimate an upper limit of ${M_{TOV}\thickapprox 2.4M\odot}$ for a non rotating
neutron star with span in radius ${R}$ between ${11.5~}$km to ${14~}$km. Moving
away from pure - NN with admixture of 10\% protons and simulating possible
softening of equation of state due to hyperons, we see that our estimated
limits fit quite well inside the newest reported studies, coming from neutron
stars merger event, GW190814
