That Second Chance
I cannot express enough how much I love Meghan Quinn’s writing. This book was no different, and I’m so excited this is a series, because I loved this story. I loved the family, and I can’t wait to find out what happens in the next books!
“Cupid hit my little brother with a giant moose. Oh, this is to wonderful.”
I loved Ren from the start. Her story was interesting and left me wanting to read more to find out how things would go for her. She was so brave, she moved across the country on her own after something traumatic, and she wasn’t even scared about it. I think what I liked the most about her was when she felt that attraction to Griffin she wasn’t scared at all to let it be known. She was honest from the get go, and I loved that. It was so refreshing to have a heroine that wasn’t afraid to go after what she wanted, and didn’t try to keep anything from anyone. She was just real and herself.
Griffin was the best. A real mans man. He had been through so much, and he was basically just trying to move on with his life, he was hesitant about Ren, and his attraction to her, but when he finally let go that’s when he really became this epic book boyfriend. He was a family man, and he didn’t even hesitant to take her under his wing, and become her friend.
“I pull her in close, the scent of her perfume like a beautiful summer day. “Don’t worry, babe. If a moose went suicidal on you again, I would save you, your bloody-head, bra-wearing self.”
This was definitely a slow burn romance, and I absolutely loved it. I was just DYING for one of them to make a move. It felt so realistic, it felt like I was a part of it, and it was driving me insane. When they finally did, it resulted in a HOT HOT HOT tent scene. The chemistry between the two of them could have melted some of the pages.
The side characters in this story were just as good as the main characters. I LOVED Griffin’s brothers and sister. His family was hilarious, and so meddlesome. Ren’s parents were definitely overprotective, but when they popped in for a surprise visit, that added some laughs in itself. I even loved all the people that lived in Port Snow. They added such charm to the story, and I found myself wishing I lived there with all the nosey neighbors and meddling family members.
“I need this moment of peace, at least until the town starts talking about the naive girl who thought she could fall in love with a Knightly brother.”
There was just a teensy bit of angst, but it was angst that absolutely needed to happen. Griffin needed what happened to happen so he could grow as a character and move on. I knew it had to happen, it was still sad, but it was necessary, so I’m not mad about it.
Overall I’m giving this one 5 STARS. I adore Meghan, I adore her writing, and I adored the characters in this story. They made this story what it was, and I can’t wait for the next books so I can dive back into that tiny town of Port Snow!
“It was supposed to be an innocent night, celebrating my brother’s birthday. Nothing was supposed to go wrong. We’d vowed to be on our best behavior after all..But it only took one rowdy night with my brothers to flip my world upside down. One unlucky encounter saddled us with a family curse and the promise of doomed relationships. I laughed it off immediately. “Yeah, right,” I thought. “ A love curse. Ha!” Boy, was I wrong. Word spreads quickly in a town like mine; rumors about that night soon made us the most eligible yet untouchable bachelors in Port Snow, Maine. As a subject of endless gossip and speculation. I could kiss my dating life goodbye. It would have stayed that way if Ren Winters, the new girl in town, hadn’t crashed into my life. Brave, beautiful, and smart- her vivacious thirst for a fresh start has given me hope that maybe, just maybe, I can have one too. Everyone wishes for that second chance..but could this really be mine?”
