Stung once by life’s fickle whims, he doesn’t want to risk his heart again - especially when he has an innocent child to consider, too.

Can he be persuaded to take another chance on love?

Usually when I read stories about characters dealing with the loss of a spouse and moving on to find their next great love, I tend to be pulled in, and I never really want to put the book down. I usually cry, and I have tons of tissues all around me from drying my face. Then I’ll think about that book for weeks to come after I finished it because it emotionally damaged me! That’s exactly what I was hoping for while reading this. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case for me when it came to Another Chance on Love. When I read the synopsis, I was excited to read it because it’s exactly what I gravitate to. I was really hoping that I was going to fall in love with this story. For some reason, I had a hard time connecting with the characters. It’s not that I didn’t like them, I just wasn’t able to really connect with them like I have in previous books. It may have been because the story was narrated. I tend to connect more when the books are written in the character's POV. I was able to connect more with the storyline when Suzy was born. I liked watching Brandon grow into a great father and it was nice to see Brittney step up and help him with the baby as well. I think they were a great team, and I knew that in time they would have their happily ever after and she would become a great wife for Brandon. Which is what everyone reader wants when the dad is a good guy and let’s face it, Brandon really was. He did seem a little shy when he was in high school. It was cute to see him step out of his comfort zone and go after what he wanted. He’s the perfect example of the boy next door who I’m sure will capture many hearts!

“Unbelievably heart-wrenching, laugh out loud chuckles, intense and gripping nail-biting on the edge of your seat impossible to put down perfection at its finest!” ~ Goodreads Review (Treasa)
“... a story with heart, passion and chemistry.” ~ Goodreads Review (Laila V.)
I am a southern girl, born and raised in crawfish country. I love to write romance - and read science fiction and fantasy, horror, romance and erotic romance. I'm a bit of a poet, but mostly when I'm feeling emotional. My friends tend to come to me when they need poems. I've been all over the continental US. My fave state? Oregon, because it has it all - beaches, ocean, mountains, caves, valleys, desert. I've been to Canada. I've driven an 18 wheeler...I'm 5'1", lol. I wanted to be a race car driver, but my first love is reading/telling stories. Why? Because between the covers of a book, you can go anywhere, be anything, and do whatever you like...all in the span of a few hours.
Thank you!
