Coffee and a Review with A Second Chance at Forever by J.M Stewart

Posted on November 25, 2013 by Jackie Paxson

untitledHappy Monday Everyone!  I know everyone is looking forward to celebrating Thanksgiving on Thursday, but we all have a few days till then.  So, I am bringing to you a great quick romance by J.M Stewart, A Second Chance at Forever.  For my full review keep reading after the book blurb.  I hope you all have a great start to your week and are resting up for the upcoming holiday.

18682587Book Blurb:

Recently divorced and working two jobs, Angela Lewis has no room in her life for love. Yet when her childhood crush finds her at the nightclub where she works as the sexy stripper, Candy Cane, and expresses his interest, Angela can’t resist. She only wants one night to live the fantasy her alter ego provides.

Alex McKinley is still trying to pick up the pieces of his shattered life, and one night with Candy is exactly what he needs. He gets more than he bargained for, however, when he discovers she’s the little sister of his best friend.  Suddenly little Angie’s all grown up and driving him crazy.

When Angela discovers she’s pregnant, Alex doesn’t hesitate to do the right thing. The more time he spends with Angela, the more Alex finds himself falling for the woman she’s become. She makes him want to live again. But can he convince her to take a chance on him

Review:

By day Angela is an average person with a normal job but weekends she is known as Candy Cane.  She is a stripper.  She took the job after her divorce to help her express herself and earn money to help pay for her mothers medical bills.  Up until now, Angela hasn’t run across anyone she knows until her brother’s best friend and childhood crush is seated in the audience.  Alex has come back to his hometown of Las Vegas to celebrate his friends impending marriage.  The last thing he expects is to want to spend time will a sexy stripper that has a familiar feel.  When in the heat of passion Angela calls out Alex’s childhood name her cover is blown and he finally knows why she feels familiar.  Though Alex initially feels like he should stop everything with his best friend’s sister he can’t get past how she feels.  Plus, he’s only planning to be in town for the weekend.  That is until Angela finds herself pregnant.  Alex insists on doing the right thing, but after suffering the loss he has only a year ago he’s not sure he will every be able to give Angela what she needs or deserves.  Can two wounded people fall in love with the gully of grief that lies between them or will they just be co-parents?

This was a great little read.  I enjoyed the story and the characters.  I thought that the idea of Angela being a stripper was definitely something I hadn’t read lately.  Angela and Alex’s budding relationship was really well written even if it was a bit fast.  I personally would have enjoyed a bit more back story of their childhood around each other.  I think that would have given everything a bit more depth.  For a quick read and a sexy love story it was a good one.  It is definitely worth a read if you are in the mood for strippers, sex, pregnancy and love.
