Second Love

by Judith Gould

Dorothy-Anne Hale-Cantwell stands on top of the world, ready to open the crown jewel in the prestigious luxury hotel empire (whose foundation was depicted in THE TEXAS YEARS and THE LOVE MAKERS). Her life seems complete. But, in one night, twin blows destroy all her dreams. A mysterious consortium makes a hostile bid for the Hale chain. Then comes the devastating revelation that her beloved husband Freddie has died in a plane crash. Into the maelstrom of Dorothy-Anne's life strides Hunt Winslow, the dashing would-be Governor of the State of California. Trapped in a loveless marriage, Hunt senses in Dorothy-Anne a romantic kinship fuelled by an electric chemistry, and he is determined to win her, no matter the price his bitter wife may demand, no matter the cost to his own ambitions. The pressure is enormous and the stakes are high. Even Dorothy's closest allies may be treacherous enemies. Can she risk her empire and her heart by pursuing a second love?

I read all three books in this trilogy back to back and this was the last. Very different style to the other books just really focusing on the grand daughter's journey. I enjoyed it... Maybe not as much as the previous two The Texas Years and The Love Makers. Great family saga!
