Griffin Knight and his brothers believe they are cursed after a trip to New Orleans. A love curse. It wasn't long after they were cursed Griffin's wife dies. Now two years later Griffin meets Ren. Ren had had her own bad experience and she's moved to Griffin's town for new start. Griffin meets her when she wrecks her car when a moose runs out in front of her on her way in to town. This is a new author for me. I checked to be sure after i finished the book because i enjoyed it so much. I loved the Knight family. The brothers and sister are awesome with each other and it feels natural. Griffin's love tragedy occurs when his wife passes away at a young age and he believes the love curse is real. Even if it isn't he feels he can't risk anyone else. Ren is irresistible though. No matter what he's drawn to her. The banter between Griffin and Ren is fun and flirty and while reading i imagined that this book would be awesome in audiobook version if it had the right narrator. You can't go wrong with this book and I am looking forward to the rest of the series as it comes out.

I adore “small town” romance reads and Meghan Quinn’s That Second Chance is the perfect example of why! Meghan did a great job with creating a storyline that touches the heart, but at the same time will have you literally lol’ing! Meghan Quinn has never let me down and I knew at just 4% into That Second Chance that I was going to love this book and I would absolutely be 1-clicking every follow-up installment in this series! This 4.5 star read will be having want to take a trip to Maine and buy some fudge! I love reading a book series that has a fantastic cast of characters and That Second Chance is the first book in the Getting Lucky series— no time like the present to jump in (I promise you won’t regret it)!

I have voluntarily read and reviewed a copy of this title given to me via NetGalley. That Second Chance is the first book in the new series Getting Lucky. This was just a great way to start off a new series. This book was just amazing. I just lost myself in this story and didn’t want it to end. It was really well written and just drew in you into these characters lives. I look forward to seeing what’s next from this author.

"I'll put everything on the line to try for her.""In just a few months, Ren has rocked me to my very core, burying herself deep within my bone marrow. And there's no doubt in my mind that when I walk away, she's going to stay there for a very long time.""I'm desperate for her. I want to hold her hand, I want to be her man. I want to take her into my arms and know that nothing is ever going to happen to her, that she's going to be mine forever."This. Book. Boy did it ever tick off all of the marks. For starters, the moment I read this synopsis and laid my eyes on the cover, I just knew I had to get my hands on this bad boy. And let me tell you, I am super glad that I did.That Second Chance is the first book in the Getting Lucky Series from Meghan Quinn. This story is everything I'm looking for in a second chance romance. You've got great characters that have been broken by their pasts. You've got an amazing family, that just pulls you in and makes you apart of their life whether you're ready for it or not. Add in some explosive chemistry and a friendship that you know in your heart of hearts is destined for more, and let me tell you, you've got all the makings for a romance that is just going to knock your socks off.Griffin and Ren won me over from their very first encounter. The sparks were there and boy were they ever off the charts. Neither one of them was looking for love. Ren was looking for a fresh start and Griffin was just going through the motions of life. But, the more time that these two spent together, the harder it was to stay away. Griffin was everything that Ren was looking for. And Ren brought light and happiness into Griffin's world. She reminded him what is was like to live his life again. Sure, Griffin wasn't perfect. Heck, there was a few times, I wanted to reach into my kindle and knock some sense into him. But, I got it. I really did. I understood why he was so afraid and why he let fear run his life. I could only hope that he would figure things out before he lost the one thing that made his life brighter....That Second Chance is a sweet and sexy second chance romance that is sure to leave you with all the feels. Ren and Griffin's story is heartwarming and is filled with so many swoon-worthy moments. The characters are so likable and easy to connect with. They suck you into their story and leave you just dying for more. I loved the ups and downs, the embarrassing moments and the ones that made you swoon. The moments that tugged at my heart and left me hoping for a happily ever after....And while Ren & Griffin's story does wrap up in That Second Chance, the ending perfectly sets things up for the next book in the series and will leave you seriously salivating for more!I hope you'll pick up That Second Chance and fall in love with Ren & Griffin just as I have.

The Second Chance by Meghan Quinn was full of all the feels, with an amazing family dynamic. This author did an amazing job with the whole small town romance trope, it felt like I was reading something out of Pleasantville. She also did a great job showcasing what the little town was all about, down to what it looked like. I don't know if this is a real place, but with the descriptions that was made, I wouldn't be surprised if it was. She is a very talented author, and I thoroughly enjoyed her writing style. She made it fun, and flirty with the perfect amount of depth, that was enough to get you all up in your feels. I also enjoyed the dual pov, it makes it so much easier for myself to truly understand the thought process of each character.

While I honestly did enjoy this story, a couple of things did irk me, and that is why there is a 4 STAR review, perhaps it could just be my preferences that is the issue lol. I truly did love the characters, but one was a little bit more complex to me. I don't really feel like the character development went as far as it could have. Another issue I had, was the way one characters showcased his/her feelings, it felt immature to me, because this person knew it was bound to happen, and yet acted a bit irrationally to me.

Griffin is the oldest brother. He is the mature one that keeps his younger siblings out of trouble. He hopes to one day take over the family business, but in the meantime enjoys being a volunteer firefighter and helping out his town with miscellaneous things.

Ren is originally from Los Angeles, and sets out on a journey to make life her B****. She has an unhealthy obsession with math, and enjoys teaching the little ones the magical elements of it. She is quirky and awkward, but also has a bubbly personality.

All it took was one rowdy night to change the course of these siblings life including Griffin's. When a second chance slaps him in the face, is he brave enough to accept it at face value, or is the risk to BIG?
