Publisher Description
They say true love is priceless, but is it worth fifty million dollars? With Second Chances, their wedding planning business, starting to take off, four best friends must decide whether they’ll take some second chances of their own. Free-spirited Lily finds herself forced to choose between her sure-thing inheritance and a chance at true love; the no-longer-predictable Elaine surprises everyone–including herself–when romance comes calling from her past; Sarah, the uncompromisingly unconventional artist, finds herself contemplating the most unexpected choice of all; and the always-clear-eyed Jo suddenly finds herself second-guessing her own second chance at happily-ever-after. The choice for each of them is “I do” or “I don’t,” and the decision will change their lives.
Breakups, makeups, and romance at every turn–life always offers up its best surprises to those who leave themselves open to the possibility of second chances.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Stone continues her Second Chances series, chronicling four 40-something pals whose unique wedding planning business targets second-marriage brides, with this innocuous fourth installment. This time around, the spotlight falls on shallow but well-meaning Lily Beckwith as she deals with the possibility of marriage to her boyfriend, Frank Forbes. Romantic to the core but pragmatic to a fault, Lily wants to accept Frank's proposal only if she can hang on to late husband Reginald's $50 million estate. Unfortunately, her spinster ex-sister-in-law, Antonia Beckwith, controls the family fortune. Meanwhile, the other three pals deal with their own issues: Jo is trying too hard to be the perfect stepmother to hubby Andrew's 12-year-old daughter; Elaine is afraid of losing her newfound independence by marrying Martin; and Sarah still keeps boyfriend Sutter at arm's length. Stone's latest will please her fans, but newcomers may find themselves treading water to stay afloat in the nearly stagnant plot.
