First Choice, Second Chance

Love Around the Corner #2

by Lynn Rae

When a shy widower agrees to help restore a historic statue, he isn’t prepared for his intense attraction to the town’s new PR guru. She’s lovely—and younger—so when his disapproving family decides he’s in the midst of a midlife crisis, he finds himself fighting for what he wants. Love is just around the corner in Lyn Rae’s new contemporary romance, First Choice, Second Chance.

Conscientious Emily Fontaine is on a mission to prove her marketing and public relations skills. When she volunteers to restore a historic statue, she isn’t prepared for her attraction to one of her fellow committee members.

Paul Ellison has stayed out of circulation since his wife’s death, but once he meets Emily, he can’t resist her quiet allure, despite the difference in their age.

When the statue that brought them together is vandalized, and both Paul’s daughter and sister strenuously object to their burgeoning relationship, Paul and Emily realize the sacrifices they’ll have to make for each other. Will Paul have a second chance at love?

First Choice, Second Chance pulled at my heart strings. I thoroughly enjoyed the way the relationship between Emily and Paul progressed. The unconventional twist of Paul being seventeen years older and a widower added a unique flavor to the story. I loved the way Emily respected the memory of his wife and his relationship with his daughter, and I loved how unsure of himself Paul was after having been out of the dating game for so long. Theirs is a sweet, tender romance, and I am so glad things work out for them in the end.

DNF, too much of an age gap
