Does everyone deserve a second chance? That's what Kenna Rowan longs for most, struggling to reclaim the shattered pieces of her old life after a tragic accident ruined everything. A second chance is the long-awaited new novel by Colleen Hoover, known as CoHo to her close friends, a best-selling author who has already surpassed 1 million copies sold in Brazil.
After spending five years in prison following a tragic accident, Kenna Rowan returns to the town where everything went wrong, hoping to live with her young daughter. But now the chasms Kenna created seem insurmountable. Everyone around her daughter is determined to reject her, no matter how hard she tries to prove she's changed.
The only person who doesn't ignore her is Ledger Ward, a bar owner and one of her few remaining connections to the child. However, if the townspeople suspect that Ledger is becoming increasingly important in Kenna's life, they both risk losing everything that matters most to them.
With alternating points of view between the two characters, A Second Chance explores how hasty judgments based on information that may not be true have the potential to end people's lives.
