A Second Chance (Powder River Pack Book 1) by Brooke May – Review by Roxsanne Lesieur.

A Second Chance by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Derek Sumerland is a man who has had his heart broken, but it still affects him many years later because he is a werewolf and his heart was broken by his fated mate, the other half of his soul and because of that he has never been able to move on. Annabel Daniels is a young woman who also has a broken heart, but even though she is a human, she still has never been able to get over her first love.

This all happened when they were both kids, Annabelle had to leave and Derek never followed her, each thought the other had abandoned them, so when Annabelle has to return years later to her hometown, to settle affairs with the father she wished she never had to see again, but she is guilted into it and so makes the decision to go home. Meanwhile, the Powder River pack Derek belongs to have gotten used to his surly self and it is nothing compared to when he was younger, despite the tragedies in his past, so instead, he has thrown himself into work and his day-to-day existence.

When she does arrive in Fetterman, Wyoming, she hopes that she won’t see the young man she left all those years ago, but she also secretly hopes that she will. Derek has become a grumpy and broken man, however, when he finds out that Annabelle has come back, he immediately wants to go to her, however, he is also scared of her reaction if he does. When they encounter each other for the first time, the feelings return full force for the both of them, but it is not all smooth sailing and although there is hope when they start to talk, love is something painful, as well as beautiful.

As the attraction builds and their bond strengthens, choices have to be made and the realisation that their lives are about to change leads to the biggest choice of all, can they build a life together, or will their dreams block the way? This is a steamy shifter romance where past and present collide as fated mates come back together, and second chances appear in a tension filled and spicy story.
