"The generous gift of a second chance......""Life changes every day. You need to be ready for the next painful or wonderful thing that walks in the door. Because something will."I don't usually read paranormal books, but the write up on this one said it had a "twist of the paranormal" and that intrigued me. This certainly wasn't what I expected! It was the most emotional book I have read in a VERY long time! I couldn't put it down.  This story will tear your heart out, have you question why things happen the way they do and will make you stop and appreciate the people around you... because everything can change in a heartbeat!This is a love story, of sorts, between Cathy and Nick Chance and Roxanne Ruiz.  Cathy and Nick were high school sweethearts, married, and seemed to have the perfect relationship. Cathy and Roxanne are best friends, since childhood, who couldn't be any different from each other, who call themselves "secret sisters."  What looks perfect from the outside isn't always as it seems!The writing is superb as you are sucked into the lives of these characters who are very real with real-life problems. You are on an emotional rollercoaster as these lives are torn apart and relationships are tested when the unimaginable happens. There are so many twists and turns that you are captivated right from the very beginning!  It brings to light the seriousness of depression, mental illness, faith and how unconditional love can alter your course in life and death."Roxanne told me once that someday she would get the opportunity to do something special for Cathy, to make it up to her, about our family's indiscretions. And then the accident happened..."
