I absolutely love Roisin Meaney's books and Second Chances is no exception. From the very first word you feel you're part of whatever is going on. In this case a young couple's life and the sudden unexpected changes that life can have in store. Lydia is a city girl who is taken in by a village after life deals her a cruel blow. They slowly bring her back to life without her realising it. The way the author writes pulls at the heartstrings and brought me to tears on several occasions without being overly sentimental. A lovely read I'm happy to recommend.Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read an advance copy. All opinions are my own.

I absolutely loved this gorgeous exploration of loss,healing and the power of community. As with all of Roisin's books it had relatable characters and emotional depth. A perfect balance of heartbreak and hope, a soothing balm in times of turmoil.
