He’s the one I can’t forget. She's the one I let get away.
But sometimes life gives second chances.

Until now.
Quinn
I can’t forget Ashton. My first and only love. Fate turned into an ugly dance partner and tore us apart. And I’m determined to get her back. It’s been years. I haven’t been able to get her to even look at me.
Until now.
And I’ll make it right.

152 books1,183 followersAfter 26 years in Corporate leadership at a Fortune 500, I discovered people within the organization lacked integrity. I’d always known deep in my soul that I was trying to fit a square peg in to a round hole since I’m the typical creative type. I miss my staff but I don’t miss the corporate world. It’s been said that the Universe will let you know if something isn’t right for you. The first time, it will hit you with a pebble. Then a brick. Then a boulder. Let’s just say that I got flattened. When my fifteen pound toy dog, Nigel, was threatened, I knew it was time to say goodbye.
It’s true.
Here’s what I found within the first thirty days of being free. Writing stories from my heart that readers love means more to me than working myself in to an early grave for people who only care about their bottom line.
My heart has never been more full and my soul has never been more satisfied.
I’ve never worked so hard in my life but it doesn’t even feel like work. It’s worth it. All of it. Because it’s about the joy that’s found within the journey. The highs and the lows because I get to write stories for all of you.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading, enjoying and recommending the stories that I write. When you share my work with others, nothing is more rewarding. Your word of mouth is my very best friend … that, and your reviews. There is nothing more important to me than all of you.
I love to hear from my readers and answer all communications personally. You can find me at:

Quinn was Ashton's big brothers best friend and growing up she fell for him. One night at a party they hooked up and her brother found out and Quinn left without saying goodbye.
Now ten years later they meet again on opposite sides of a real estate business deal. They finally talk and reconnect but things just don't work out for their Second Chance Romance when another woman shows up to bring Quinn breakfast... I can't wait to see what happens next.
I purchases Second Chance Romance Part 1 as part of an anthology.

What a feisty woman Allegra is and I love it! She has so much to deal with in her Bakery and her past that the last thing she needs is to be played by Gabe. I love books with realistic drama .

I was given a free copy of this story in exchange for an honest review.
The first chapter was so sweet and tender between Ashton and Quinn. Then betrayal. They haven't seen each other in years. Not since Quinn disappeared that one night Ashton got what she always wanted. Him. So of course the best place for a reunion is at a business deal. They both have to face there past and Quinn needs to tell the truth no matter what.
All I kept thinking through this is WHY? Quinn come on just tell Ashton and me the truth of why you left. Quinns boss is such a clever and sneaky man :) He sets them up to talk and finally face the past. Then the cliffhanger dam it! What is going on? Quinn has explaining to to do and Ashton poor Ashton I feel so sorry for her heart right now. But she needs to face it and find the truth. Part 2 is going to be interesting.

Good
Yeah I like this book, just wish it wasn't so short. But as it is free that makes it even better.
Just goes to show that feelings can last , if it's ment to be.

As always Colleen grabs your attention and you can't get enough but it is more than that I could really relate to the story. It brings back memories of past relationships to the what if that so many people have. I so can't wait to start the next book in this series! Awesome job Colleen!
