My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hennessey On The Rocks is a fantastic second chance romance novel by Monica DeSimone. It was the first time I had read any of this author’s work but I was attracted by the blurb and decided it was worth giving it a go. I’m so glad that I took a chance on this book as I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Charlotte (Charlie) Hennessey is a famous cook with a couple of restaurants and a successful TV show. Sick of life in the rat race, she moves herself and her 2 children Jace and Abie back home to the house she grew up in.
Her ex-husband Jonathan (Johnnie) Hennessey is a famous author who is still battling with alcohol and depression (and his love for Charlie). He also decided to move back home to be near Charlie and the children. He desperately wants to be part of a family unit again.
The chemistry between Johnnie and Charlie is still off the charts hot and both are still deeply in love with each other but the issues that caused their marriage to break down are still there and also Charlie is hiding a huge secret that could totally devastate Johnnie.
This is an amazing story. I loved the interactions between Johnnie And Charlie. These characters are so well written. They have many flaws and are broken. In addition the 2 children are just amazing. Jace is the typical moody tween and 3 year old Abie is such a scene stealer. She is just the most adorable little girl ever.
I’m a total sucker for a second chance romance and this is one of the best that I have read. 100% recommend this book to others.
