About the Book

For fans of Chesapeake women's fiction and the Hallmark Chesapeake Shores series, this novel is for you!Readers wanted Book Two of The Maryland Shores women's fiction series, and now the story continues...Paul Romano once spent most waking hours fantasizing about Liz. More than 15 years later, he needs her again only as a lifeline as he grieves his wife's untimely passing and the death of his dreams for a family. Liz Kramer, a therapist, helps people process emotions. She would forever remember Paul as her brother Steve's best friend-the Italian Stallion, fussy about food, smug about his nationality, razor sharp with wit, and a diehard Steelers football fan. Liz could bleed purple on game day in Baltimore. How's that for clashing loyalties? On the surface, Liz has the satisfying career, custom-built home and solid marriage. Until she doesn't! When Liz's idyllic Chesapeake life takes a plunge, she needs Paul's friendship more than any fantasy, merely to stay afloat...financially and otherwise. Liz must manage two children, a conniving, passive-aggressive and estranged husband, two exacting bosses, and Paul's Pittsburgh mother who shares the same name as a brewing hurricane. Fitting, as both head straight at Liz while a friend of Paul's heaps more hurt onto Steve, jeopardizing his future with Maren. Will Liz ever relax again? And why would Paul want her tales of woe with his newly found pleasure literally chasing tail? Make that plural! See who gets another shot at happiness-and possibly love-with this intertwining story of second chances in The Maryland Shores women's fiction novel series. Editorial Review: "Monroe's intimate connection to the Eastern Shore is revealed the moment you pick up this second installment. The cover's languorous sunset with silhouetted lovers locked in a wistful embrace was taken in Ocean City, Maryland, which is (spoiler alert!) where the narrative culminates. The coastal love affair continues on the inside throughout its 292 pages, capturing faithfully not only the intrinsic romance of the setting, but also the whimsical nature (though purple-bleeding football fans might want to steel themselves for the author's Baltimore-Pittsburgh rivalry). Ultimately, however, this entertaining and familiar tome will carry you away on tranquil currents. www.laurenmonroenovels.com" - Coastal Style magazineReader Comments: "I wanted to stay immersed in Maren, Steve, and the Chesapeake Bay, and I was sorry to see Book One end. It was full of real emotion and experiences that women especially will recognize. I loved the football, the Pittsburgh and Disney references, and the medical drama throughout. Looking forward to Book Two!""Action packed from the beginning, Second Chances takes the reader places, obviously within Maryland, but to Pennsylvania and abroad also. It depicts the easy pace and calming scenery on Maryland's Eastern Shore. Liz leads her life like many of us must-devoted to her children, committed to her career, and determined to stay sane though she's faced with surprises in her now rocky marriage. Readers enjoy the stories of Liz and Paul, and they pick up on Maren and Steve from Letting Go: Book One. I absolutely adored the way Lauren Monroe ended this novel and wouldn't have changed a word. It was perfect for these characters.""Lauren Monroe's novels compel you to turn the pages with enough depth to make the book detailed and encompassing, but not tedious. I was very pleased with the paperback edition and gifted the eBook because it's a substantive novel for a mere $2.99 price tag!"Novelist Lauren Monroe is a Pittsburgh native who grew up appreciating beautiful scenery and nautical life.
