Publisher's summary
Two women meet in college, fall in love, and break up, leaving behind a wake of unresolved feelings of fear, anger, and guilt. Ten years later, when they are both professors, they meet again at an Atlanta university. While trying to solve the riddle of a student's mysterious suicide, they confront misogyny, contentious academic politics, and their own complicated pasts.
Dealing with many of the challenges facing America in the late 1970s and 80s, Second Chances anticipates today's social and political struggles while telling a story of forgiveness and second-chance love.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 1,308
Romance can be a little complicated when you get sucked into a wormhole. Just ask high school English teacher June Flint. One little solar flare happens and suddenly you find yourself 85 years in the future. Eighty-five years from your dream job. Your ailing mother whose only companion in this world is you. Your favorite stuffed-crust pizza from DeLucia’s on Sunday nights. But when June’s cell phone inexplicably picks up a signal, she’s able to call back to the present—more specifically, four weeks before she accidentally time traveled.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 1,727
Eight years ago I fell into a secret summer fling with my best friend’s little sister before our lives went in different directions. Now, I’m the grumpy to Juliet’s sunshine on a popular dating podcast we host, and when a wealthy fan gives us a charming coastal cottage as the biggest thank you ever, we head to the town where I grew up to give it a makeover. And find the house has only one bed. Located under a mirrored ceiling.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 1,550
It’s been said that you can’t love two men at the same time. You can’t split your heart, soul, and body in half. But I’m here to tell you, you can. Dylan Cole is like ice, sharp and unpredictable, the thunder inside a tumultuous storm. Smith Reid is warmth, soft and gentle, perfect like a sunny day. Both are mine. But I can have only one. There are two sides to this tale. I'm here to tell you mine. If you think this story is about a cheater, you couldn’t be more wrong.
