review 1: A Second Chance at Forever opens with our heroine, Angela, working her second job as a stripper on the Vegas strip. By day she is a mild mannered tech support worker but by night she is sexy, uninhibited Candy Cane. Angela revels in the freedom dancing on stage in front of men gives her plus the extra income helps her support her mother who is recovering from cancer.One night a unexpected patron shows up: her childhood crush, Alex. Alex doesn’t recognize Angela so she takes a chance and gives him a show and lap dance. His attraction is immediate and she decides to fulfill a dream of one night with him. That one night results in additional dates before Alex flies home to New York leaving Angela with something completely unexpected: a surprise pregnancy.The story continues... more with the two of them wrestling with demons from their past: for Angela the devastated self esteem thanks to her ruthless ex-husband. And for Alex: moving on from the tragic death of his wife and four year old daughter in a car accident a year ago. Angela doesn’t want to open herself up to love again only to be destroyed. And Alex wonders if her could ever love anyone again.I loved that the two characters didn’t fly back into a passionate relationship. In fact, besides the few sexual encounters at the beginning of the story, I don’t think they are intimate with each other beyond a kiss or two. Considering the issues they had to overcome I think their relationship was much more realistic.My only quibble with this story was the ending. Yes, there was a happily ever after but I was expecting an epilogue to resolve the pregnancy issue. I guess I’ll just have to imagine my own ending ;)4 out of 5 starsI received a copy of this book for an honest review
review 2: This is a wonderful book that draws you in and keeps you turning the pages. When I first sat down to read "A Second Chance At Forever" I planned on reading for an hour or so, I ended up reading the first half of the book in one sitting. Angela and Alex are characters you root for from the very beginning. The author is very good at creating empathy for her characters so that you feel their hurts, their needs and wants, and their happiness.I'd recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good romance with a bit of spice. less
