My Thoughts
L.B. Dunbar has definitely found a writing groove with her
over-40 romances. I’ve enjoyed all the ones I’ve read and SECOND CHANCE is no
exception.
I’ll admit that I was a tad sceptical heading into the book;
I am wary of widowed characters who jump into romantic relationships soon after
their spouses die. I do make judgements and it takes a skilled author to win me
over, and Dunbar certainly did here.
This is a story about a second chance for Mati Harrington
and Denton Chance, but it’s also a love triangle between Denton, Mati and
Chris, her deceased husband. I thoroughly enjoyed the way Dunbar switched
between the past and present to slowly reveal the layers of this intricate
relationship between them all. They were all so young, dealing with intense
feelings that resulted in actions that are still felt nearly 30 years after
they happened.
Dunbar excels in giving her characters a life. These are not
people who have let time pass them by. They have lived; they have had good
times and they have regrets but they recognise when it’s time to leave the past
behind and reach for their own happiness, whatever form this happens to take. They
are also funny, a bit silly and a lot human. They are entirely relatable.
SECOND CHANCE is certainly a romance but for me it also sits
firmly in the family saga category. The small town setting gives us the chance
to meet other family members and friends that impact greatly on the lives of
Denton and Mati. The story is about history and ancestral roots; it’s about the
lies told and the secrets uncovered.
The writing was engaging and kept me entertained from the
start. I highly recommend SECOND CHANCE.
