Why read it?
1 author picked Second Chance on Cypress Lane as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Small town romance + coming home + second chance? This book was like catnip to me. Dakota and Dexter felt like real people I would know. I love any story that explores how our needs and ambitions change as we grow older, and this book delivered. Dexter made choices when they were young. Dakota made some career choices that have set her life in a tailspin. I also very much enjoyed the friendship between Dakota and her best friend, Sinclair (Sin). Enduring friendships are another facet of a character’s ability to love that I enjoy seeing in a good romance.
From Maggie's list on The best sexy/steamy romance novels featuring characters in the prime of life.
