Second Chance

By: Lisa Scott

“Life would be boring if we knew how things would turn out in the future. You don’t plot out your life and then live it. You live you life and see how it turns out. Life’s an exciting gift..”

What a great short romance story! It’s 10 year high school reunion time! Chelsea Hallman is on the reunion committee and is in charge of reaching out to certain classmates. This includes, Tripp, her now famous and wealthy ex-boyfriend. She broke up with Tripp back then because he didn’t seem to have any ambition. Now it’s her that didn’t amount to much. She thinks he’s trying to show her what she missed out, but she has missed the Trip she knew back then.

This was a very short read at 33 pages, but it was filled with SO much. Scott does a great job of establishing Tripp and Chelsea that I didn’t feel like I missed out on any buildup. I could feel each of their feelings and wanted to yell at Chelsea for jumping to conclusions. I also loved how down to earth Tripp was even though he was so successful. I do wish this was a tad bit longer so we could see these two in the next phase of their relationship.

The best part of this book, however, was Grandpa!!! He shone in this book and had some very insightful advice. I wanted more interactions with Grandpa!
