New Book to Check Out!

Welcome friend and fellow author, Alexis Goring. 

She is sharing about her book, A Second Chance. Read on to see how she came to write this book. 

Journalists, jilted brides and Mr. Nice Guys inspired my story A Second Chance. But what really ups the ante is the inheritance letter that changes the lives of my story’s hero and heroine.

Marc Roberts is the hero of this story. He’s known for being such a nice guy but his niceness makes him unattractive in the long term because in his dating history, his girlfriends broke up with him to date more daring and dashing men leaving him forever in the friend zone.

However, Marc’s niceness is of invaluable help to his newly widowed sister Gina who is trying to raise her children in wake of her firefighter husband’s death. Since he lives nearby and has a kind heart, Marc is readily available to babysit Gina’s children while she takes a break or works on her book deadlines. Gina is a bestselling romance novelist and her matchmaking skills play a part in Marc’s real-life love story with Traci Hightower.

When readers meet Traci Hightower, they see that she is very frustrated with trying to pay her bills as an entry-level journalist when she’s stuck in the industry’s system of “paying your dues”. It doesn’t help that she’s deep in debt from wedding expenses and suffering from a broken heart because her fiancé left her at the altar on their wedding day. Traci doesn’t like being a jilted bride and finds it hard to trust men or God again. But when she meets Marc, something about him makes her want to try to trust again and their relationship makes her turn over a new leaf in her faith journey with God.

However, Traci and Marc’s path to romance is not without rocky roads. Due to his past dating experiences, Marc’s deal-breaker is honesty and Traci has a secret regarding an inheritance letter that has a stipulation that may make Marc feel used if he knew about it. During every moment she shares with Marc that endears her heart to him, she finds herself in an internal battle. She must decide either to tell Marc the truth and risk losing him or keep it a secret and have a better chance of keeping him. What will she decide? You’ll have to read my book to find the answer to that question! ;)

I hope that Traci and Marc’s story will reach the hearts of my readers who may share similar experiences, and encourage them in their life journey.

A Second Chance: Newly single food critic and newspaper reporter Traci Hightower is done with dating. After the man of her dreams left her at the altar on their wedding day and ran off with the woman she thought was her best friend, Traci resolves to focus on work and resigns herself to being a bachelorette for life.

Marc Roberts is a political reporter who is known as Mr. Nice Guy, the one who always finishes last. However, Marc’s compassion and kindness are of invaluable help to his newly widowed sister Gina Braxton who is trying to raise her two kids in the wake of her firefighter husband’s death.

Traci and Marc may be the perfect match, but they don’t know it yet. With God’s guidance and the help of Gina’s matchmaking skills honed by her career as a bestselling romance novelist, there is hope for a happily ever after for these two broken hearts.
