Review: Could Have Been Better
Rating: 3 out of 5

I've just finished reading "Full Moon," the second novel in the "Second Chances" series, and am trying to figure out what's bothering me about it. As much as I liked the story and the characters, I think there was something missing from it. All the sexcapdes that Josie followed thru with that were on her list, they were all hot and steamy, very erotic, at times very instructional (I learned a thing or two ;) ). Josie and Jake definitely had physical chemistry. I just didn't feel the emotional love and connection that they supposedly had for one another. On it's own it's a fine novel; but following on the heels of "Fix Me," the first book in the series, which is a beautiful story about a woman dealing with a serious health issue with the help and support of her best friend who turns out to be her true love - "Second Chances" falls flat. I really felt that it was missing the emotional connection between two people who fall in love. Not to mention, there's very little character development with respect to the hero of the story, Jake. So even though I thought this to be a good novel, I didn't think it was as good as the first one. Here's hoping the third and fourth books in the series to follow are better. Just remember this is my opinion.
