Second Chance: A Heart-Wrenching Story of Love, Commitment, Envy and Strife

By Lurma Swinney

Second Chance is a heart-warming story of love and envy, set in a well-rounded trilogy of strife, religion, heartache, and closure.

Second Chance evolves around the entanglement of Marcus, a handsome, intelligent, easy-spirited lawyer, who is torn between his past love, Karen, a high-strung, TV News Anchorwoman, who left him at the altar fifteen years ago; and his present love, Saundra, a Christian, OB/GYN Doctor, who is now his fianc e, and Karen's long-time rival.

Karen's friend, the Dynamite Divas, ridiculed Saundra in high school, and now they are all paying the price for their cruelty. Milena's husband is having an affair with Marcus' sister; Hilda's husband is an abuser and beats her every chance he can, because he does not want to admit he has a problem with drugs until he places his family in danger; Sharla goes through a period on welfare with two children living in a roast-infested housing project; and the beautiful Karen experiences health problems that could end in death.

Lurma Swinney, author of Consequences, Sister Lucy, Sister Lucy II, Single Mom, Toni Talk, and Forgotten Memories has captured the hearts and minds of people experiencing heartache, misery, and strife. Read it with a box of tissues, because this story will tantalize your heart and tug at your emotions with every tear-filled page of drive, commitment, and desire.

Second Chance awakens love, motives, morals, drives, and attitudes of the entanglement of people in their fallible lives to arrive at a burning conclusion, to achieve a lasting impression, exploring the all-powerful question Do you deserve a second chance?
