Second Chances: Enriching Life Lessons (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798668331352)

Second Chances, most fundamentally, explores how to process and recover from an excruciating loss, forgive those who have hurt us, and best live a rewarding, faithful, and hopeful life. In Second Chances, Julia, a middle-aged, investigative reporter, faces a life-altering decision when her visit to a local hospital leads her to Jonathan, a needy fifteen-year-old suffering from severe health issues and mental disabilities. They form an improbable, strong bond that threatens her forthcoming marriage to her fianc , Ben. Driven by her faith and with words of wisdom from her dying mom, Julia embarks on a mission to discover Jonathan's unknown past and to improve his life, including by possibly adopting him. As she struggles whether to become Ben's wife or Jonathan's mother, she realizes she can't become both, or can she? In her journey to making her decision, Julia uses her investigative skills to discover a shocking secret about Jonathan's unknown past. Along the way, she meets a cast of characters who, each in their own way, guide her decision. Despite its setbacks, heartache, and devastation, Second Chances ultimately is an uplifting saga of the human spirit, as it provides a blueprint of important life lessons. In our increasingly polarized and divisive society and politics, Second Chances focuses on what unites us, and it gives a voice, and a sense of belonging and importance, to those who are different, marginalized, and ostracized.
