Mansur Ali is a millionaire working in America. His mother calls him home to Somaliland because his previous love had been in an accident and has lost some of her memories, including the fact that she was once in love with him. As far as Amal is concerned, she doesn't owe anything to Mansur, but she has unexplained feelings for him. In fact, when she discovers that she once rejected his proposal, she is more than shocked.

Romance stories are often based on tropes, and this one is a second chance romance. Mansur and Amal are perfect for one another and I rooted for them all the way. I love how this tory unfolded and allowed their love for one another to eventually shine through.

Many thanks to Harlequin Romance and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.

It's a second chance romance with an amnesia trope for Hana Sheik's Harlequin debut, and all I can say is this author has certainly set the bar high for whatever comes next. Amal and Manny are terrific characters and I found myself rooting for them almost immediately. I also really liked the way the amnesia storyline was handled here. Plus I got to do a little traveling from the comfort of my recliner thanks to the author's wonderfully descriptive writing. She managed to paint a picture with her words that made everything so easy to see in my mind's eye, and she did it without going overboard or making it feel like filler. So, great characters, rich settings, engaging storyline - all of that combines for an entertaining weekend read.

Second Chance to Wear His Ring grabbed me at the title. I immediately wanted to know what happened and why there was a second chance.

Manny finds himself back in Somaliland as someone needs help. It was exciting to witness the development of their relationship. Amal's accident and memory loss made me want to find out if they would ever rekindle what they once had.

They are definitely people to root for!

Hana Sheik captures family dynamics well and the dilemma of "will they/won't they" is excellently created.

The setting is interesting too and new to me. Second Chance to Wear His Ring is an excellent debut.

I am a person who loves learning about different cultures and the combination of past memories, real life matters and the mystery of how, or if, everything would resolve itself, was gripping. The writing style is fluid and fast-moving which made me want to know what was going to happen.

Thanks to Hana Sheik and Harlequin Romance for my ARC in exchange for an honest and voluntary review.
