It got boring mid way through
It started out really strong but mid way through it got stagnant. I had to force myself to continue to read. I did enjoy trying to figure out the murder mystery though I saw where the romance portion was heading when the other couple was introduced. My biggest issue is how those two were able to fall in love so fast when the people they spent their lives with were both barely cold in the ground. I felt that was rude and uncaring to their respective spouses memories like they didn't mean anything and were easily replaced within months. That's why I couldn't give this book more than 3 stars.

This review is from: Second Chances (Kindle Edition)
SECOND CHANCES by Dixie Land. The book starts off immediately with action. Grace and Andrew get married, as we figured, but all their turns in life make the reader keep guessing page after page. I appreciated the life like situations in the book, like the Alzheimer's that Grace's mother has and how it is handled so true to life. Then all the suspense and mystery about the hidden files, old secrets, and murder, and who is on the list next, keep us reading on until the finish. There we find an unexpected ending. This is another one of Dixie Land's great stories. It's hard to pick out which is the best, but this one is a winner.

November 17, 2012This is another novel by Dixie Land that is full of adventure and suspense. Just when you think it is the end of any happiness that Grace could have there is more intrigue and suspense that keeps it going. You are never sure what will happen next and this causes you to keep reading to the very end of the book and you are very satisfied with the way Dixie ended it. Norma Hammer - Clinton, IA

Yet another of Dixie Lands books I thoroughly enjoyed.
I found myself pulling for Grace and at time telling her off for the silly things she was getting into.
I highly recommend this book.
