Second Chance Summer

Second Chance Summer

Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

From the moment Lily Harper arrives at a remote retreat on the breath-taking Scilly Isles, she is itching to get back to civilisation - and her business.

Slowing down simply isn't in her vocabulary, and so she quickly clashes with the gorgeous but dour Sam who runs the retreat.

Just as Lily is about to give up and leave, she is involved in a spectacular boating accident. Rumours abound and her obituary is released online.

But there are two problems:
One: Lily doesn't like the person she's reading about
Two: Lily isn't dead

Faced with her own mortality, Lily is no longer sure she wants to return to the life she thought she loved. But will she have the courage to give the retreat, and Sam, a second chance?
