Publisher's summary

Atlanta homicide detective Patrick “Tick” Kelly turned his back on the world the day his wife and children were murdered. Abandoning his city and his career, he holed up in a beach house on Mango Key, Florida, and drowned his grief in Jack Daniels. Now sober and a best-selling author, Tick would gladly stay a recluse forever if his brother Pete didn’t keep trying to drag him back to the land of the living. After years of sacrificing her personal life in favor of her DEA job, special agent Kate Rush resigned and moved back to her native Miami.

But the unofficial assignment that has just come her way is too intriguing to pass up. She and a fellow ex-agent are relocated to Mango Key to keep an eye on an imposing, mysterious fortress believed to be at the center of a human trafficking ring. At first, the Kelly brothers are suspected of involvement, but Kate is sure Tick poses no danger - except for the slow-burning gaze that makes her breath catch and her heart race.Tick finds himself fascinated by Kate’s investigation - and by her inviting mix of courage and kindness. Teaming up, they uncover a web of betrayal, blackmail, and ruthless greed. And as danger mounts, Tick realizes how far he’ll go to protect the rare and surprising gift that’s come his way: a second chance at a happy ending.

Twists and turns

A great read with wonderful characters. Fast paced and full of surprises. Enjoy the suspense. A nice ending also.

Second Chance at Love

Former Atlanta homicide detective Patrick “Tick” Kelly turned hermit has retreated to Mango Key to recover from devastating loss.

Along with his twin brother Pete and two female former DEA Agents he becomes embroiled in a sinister mystery.

A mystery that will have long reaching consequences and may ultimately lead to a second chance at love.

I recommend this sweet, sad, sometimes funny tale of betrayal, blackmail, ruthless greed and a smart ass parrot.

Another Wonderful Book!!

Absolutely Amazing!! I didn't like the book at first when I read about the DEA people then after I understood what was going on I liked it!

Narration

Absolutely the WORST narration ever. So much so, it was a battle to finish listening.

Review

Good book. It was a little drawn out at times.I would recommend it to someone that likes mysteries.

Great story

Once again a great story by Fern Michaels. Her characters seem to come alive. I enjoyed it just as much this time as my first time listening.

Southern Comfort

I am so
caught up with this series.w start and can,t stop.Love every book so far.

Preedicttable

It was okay. abi ft predictablee. looked the setting. female roles were well drawn. requiring a writtenreview is unfair to vision impaired. who listen to audible. shame on you.

Disappointment

This could have been a great story but it just didn't pan out. There was way too much jumping around. The characters did not seem real. I usually love Fern Michael's books. I was happy to see a new one come out, but this one left me flat.

Terrible

Bookclub choice - otherwise I would not have made it through. The only thing worse than the the writing was the narration. Don’t waste a credit!
