FOOTSTEPS OF THE PAST is the second book in the Second Chances series and this time, it is Chess and André's story. They have been together for nine years but there are still secrets hidden away, just waiting to be found.

Oh, what a story. Poor Chess. I can completely understand where he was coming from. He's worked so hard to turn his life around, but sometimes the doubt resurfaces that maybe, just maybe, he doesn't deserve all the good things. As for André, he loves Chess completely but is swayed by his mum to be away from him more often than not. I loved it when he took a stand and said 'enough!'

The group of friends play a big part, as you would imagine. Elliot and Win are still my favourites, with Chess and André close behind. As I suspected would happen, Ms Stevens is changing my mind about Spencer, and Wolf has learnt his lesson.

A fantastic addition to the series, this book focuses on truth and honesty, sharing the highs and the lows. I loved every word and have no hesitation in recommending it.

THE LIST is the first book in the Second Chances series and in this introduction, we are treated to Elliot and Win. Elliot is a diehard romantic homebody who just wants to be loved. Win is afraid of love, having lost his husband to an RTA, but there is something about Elliot that draws him in like a moth to a flame.

I loved Elliot and Win. Both of them have been through so much and I really wanted them to be happy - with each other, of course! They both have tragedies in their pasts and show how different people react. I thought this was incredibly sensitively written, and I loved every word.

What I didn't love are Spencer's friends. I'm sorry, I know I should like them, but I don't. Chess is the nicest one and even he is hiding a secret. Spencer is completely annoying and I want to slap him upside the head with every scene he is in. And Wolf!!! As a lawyer, what the hell was he thinking, going off half-cocked like that? I look forward to reading their stories and having Ms Stevens change my opinion of them.

This is the start of a new series and I am already hooked. Elliot and Win stole my heart, and I hope to hear more from them in the future. Highly recommended by me.
