TWICE IN A LIFETIME by Jessica Prince is AVAILABLE NOW
When I moved away from Hope Valley at eighteen years old, I told myself it was for good. There were too many unpleasant memories, too much history, and too many reminders of the boy who had broken my heart.
Years passed and I built a life and a family with a man I loved. Then, in the blink of an eye, that life was ripped away from me, and the secrets heβd kept from me refused to follow him into his grave.
Now Iβm back in my hometown, a shell of my former self, trying to pick up the pieces of my shattered life and fit them back together. My heart has been broken for the second time in my life, but I have to put on a brave face and fake it for the sake of my kids and the people I love.
I thought I was doing a pretty good job of hiding the pain, but there is one person Iβve never been able to fool. One person who was always able to see through the masks I tried to wear, and he is determined to chase my shadows away.
Rhodes Bradbury is all grown up now. The boy who had been my first love is now all man. And to make matters worse, my body still reacts to him the same way it did all those years ago. My heart still races in his presence, and a single look from those deep, dark eyes is enough to make my skin tingle. The voice in the back of my head is screaming at me to steer clear, but thereβs just one problem.
The boy he was might have broken my heart, but the man he is now wants a second chance. He isnβt afraid of my baggage. In fact, he wants nothing more than to carry it for me.
Iβm trying my hardest not to repeat the mistakes of the past. But heβs doing everything in his power to convince me that most people arenβt lucky enough to have what we had even once, let alone twice in a lifetime.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars
Having read the OG Hope Valley series made me love Rhodes and Blythe even more because I’d seen them as younger characters in his sister Gypsy’s book and her mom Nona’s book.
This story was full of second-chance goodness between two characters with a long history between them. After Blythe’s husband passed away and she discovered her entire life was a lie, she headed home to Hope Valley and tried to avoid Rhodes, the first guy who broke her heart. But when she needs assistance from the Alpha Omega guys — to investigate her late husband — she is shocked to see that Rhodes is Lincoln’s new partner.
Twenty years ago, a much-younger Rhodes threw their relationship away — but now he is determined to make things up to Blythe and make up for lost time. I loved these two together. The symbolism of the angel wings tattoo, how sweet he is with her kids, how it has always been her… this story checked off all the boxes that I want to see in a second-chance romance.
I am really enjoying this next-generation of Hope Valley books, and love that the kids are just as much of a tight-knit bunch as their parents are! I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.
