Second
Chance
by Allyson
Sinclair
Contemporary Romance
Anabella
Stewart had the perfect marriage, children and a husband who loved her
unconditionally or so she thought. She'd built her life around them for ten
years until she was blindsided with the truth of who her husband really was,
and everything she held dear and believed in evaporated in an instant.
Anabella's
heart filled with darkness and the only glimmer of light is the love she holds
for her two young daughters. She’s content in her 'no-one can hurt me life',
it’s controlled, she isolates herself, studies, goes to work and just keeps
breathing.
A freak
accident helps Anabella find her way out of the darkness when she meets Nikolas
Turner. After the death of his parents he has a decision to make; return home
to England or take over the reins of the family
company.
As fate,
would have it Anabella crashes into Nikolas' life. She’s everything he thought
he didn’t want from a relationship; a single mother who’d depend on him for
comfort and support he didn’t know he could give. Being with her means not only
loving her but also becoming a father figure to her
children.
When life
offers you a second chance, even when you don’t think you need one, you hold on
tight with everything you have.
“Feel like
going on an adventure with me?”
Being with you is already an adventure.
“Sure.”
“Have you ever been to D’Aguilar National
Park?”
“No, I don’t
actually go outdoors that much.”
“There’s a
five-kilometre hiking track with an incredible view. I thought we could hike
together?”
Oh my God, he doesn’t know how clumsy I am!
Like, Bella
from ‘Twilight’ clumsy.
“Nikolas, that
sounds great, but I’m not always good on my feet. Maybe we should do something
less dangerous?”
He laughs and
raises an eyebrow. “Do you think I would allow any harm to come to
you?”
“Ha! You don’t
know how bad my version of clumsy is. On Claire’s cross country day, I rolled
my ankle on the school oval and that was flat!” I laugh at my own
clumsiness.
He reaches over the console for my hand and I let him take
it, he raises it to his lips and kisses my knuckles. “I promise I’ll protect you,
even from yourself.” He takes his eyes off the road for a moment to look at me. “Trust me, Anabella.”
He has no idea
how hard those two words are for me.
Allyson Sinclair is a mother of
two beautiful girls. She is a down to earth Aussie girl with
a passion for
reading and now writing. After being introduced to reading
by her best friend,
she soon fell in love with the literary world. The Twilight
Saga and Fifty
Shades of Grey are some of her huge favourites, amongst
hundreds more. While
reading these books, soon enough scenes and plots began to
form, but because
she felt as though she couldn't achieve her dream of
becoming an author, she
decided to share her ideas with author friends for them to
write. But they
fully encouraged her to begin her writing journey and so her
story began and
has become her life over the last two year. Now the ideas
keep flowing with
many more stories to share in the
future.
