Her Second Chance

Her Second Chance is the long-awaited contemporary African American romance from Romantic Times Career Achievement Award winning author, Bette Ford.
A fiercely independent woman…

Trenna McAdams's main goal in life is independence. After a tragic (and tragically wrong!) marriage, she's finally realized her dream of running a prestigious preschool, bringing her closer than she ever thought possible to being truly happy. If only she wasn't constantly distracted by the attentions of the charming, dynamic Darrin Morgan. Sure, she likes the way he fills out the shoulders of his custom-made suits, but there're also those rumors in their office building about his womanizing ways. Surely, he could get any woman he wants. And Trenna isn't interested in being a notch on anyone's bedpost.

A successful, smooth-talking man…

Four years ago, Darrin Morgan's life changed the moment he laid eyes on Trenna McAdams. With every fiber of his being, he knew she was the one for him. But she was a recent widow, and Darin respected that. Now that he's found out she's dating again, he's ready to show Trenna that he can be everything she's ever wanted and everything she ever needed.

New Love or old entanglements…

Talented and confident, Morgan-Green's top attorney is everything that Trenna can do without. Should do without. If only Darrin's sweet-talk didn't make her toes curl—or inspire other kinds of sensations too; emotions she never realized she could feel.


As she discovers Darrin's true character, she becomes more and more enmeshed by his charm, strength, and compassion. But Trenna's late husband proves to be as much of an obstacle to Trenna's happily-ever-after as he was when he was alive. Can Trenna defeat her ghosts before she lets this second—and perhaps only—chance at true love pass her by?
