Interesting Reading!

What did you love best about Second Chances?

The characters are so well developed.

Which character – as performed by Suzanne Barbetta – was your favorite?

Lorelei was my favorite character because of how interesting her story was during the book.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

This book had its ups and downs when it comes to emotions. In the end I was pleased with the ending, and looks forward tor reading the next book in the series.

Short, sweet romance

Second Chances was a short, sweet romance. Although it was short, the story was complete and fun. The characters were real, funny, and sarcastic. The narrator did a good job separating the characters and giving them their own voices.
I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.

Cute, but not for me.

What did you like best about Second Chances? What did you like least?

The book was cute, well written but to slow for me. Narration did good, very true to the book with the Southern draw.

If you’ve listened to books by Kristi Rose before, how does this one compare?

Never listen to Kristi Rose before.

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

Narration seemed to slow. The pace could of made a huge impact on the likability of the book.

letters of love

A sweet, short love story that proves it's never too late to come home and it's never too late to give and be forgiven. I love these characters. Lorelei is sassy but devoted to those she loves and cares for but cross her and well... Cole is the man who broke her heart and he is determined to gain her forgiveness. The narration was perfectly done and the storyline was well done although with this being such a short read was fast paced but flowed well. Loved the epilogue and the fact that Cole wrote her letters (a wonderful gift that is missing in today's time).

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

Second Chances: A Small Town Short Story

This is a short SWEET novel, about forgiveness and love re-found after many years. The story flowed smoothly and I liked it.

love letters

When Cole went to college fourteen years ago he broke Lorelei's heart. Now he is back in town and he is set his mind in winning it back.

Pleasantly Surprised

I really enjoyed this story. It was a very short read that I would have loved to be longer. But, still it was a full story. I loved the characters. Lorelei's character cracked me up. I loved her sarcasm. Some might not like her character or think she was too bitter or sarcastic, but considering what she'd been through, I thought she was perfect. And, I wanted to not like Cole, but I couldn't. He was remorseful, young, and dumb, and felt really bad about what had happened. Now that they are adults, I totally wanted to see what happened between them.

I listened to the audio version of this book. The narrator, Suzanne Barbetta, did a great job! She really brought the characters and story to life. This book was an ARC and, I'm so happy I chose to read and review it. I'm always on the lookout for my next great read or listen!
