From the moment I first saw him shirtless, with those rippled abs on full display and his grey sweatpants barely hanging off his muscular hips, my insides melted.But this desire I’m filled with is one I know can never be satisfied.Single dad Jaxson Brentwood doesn’t talk about the hard times. He’s lived them. Four years prior, he lost his wife in a tragic accident. Since then, he’s been left to … then, he’s been left to raise his daughters alone.
His world is everything mine can never be.
It doesn’t matter that our chemistry is off the charts. It doesn’t matter that Jaxson’s arms are the only ones I feel safe in.
He and I are like oil and water – and while opposites clearly attract, I can’t believe there’d ever be a place for a girl like me in Jaxson’s world of foam dart battles and bedtime stories.
Or, at least, that’s what I thought until we both dared open our hearts – and began wondering if, just maybe, we deserved a shot at love the second time around.
Second Time Around is the first in Alandra Knight’s Finding Our Forever series – emotionally intense tales of true love, featuring beautifully crafted characters overcoming the darkest odds to earn their happily-ever-after.

This book was phenomenal, I laughted, cried and forgot how to breath.
I read it in one sitting I couldn’t put it down. I loved jax from the first page.
This story split my wide open, my heart broke and then mended then broke again.
They say tragedy is its most brutal form isn’t something you get over you just learn to live with but finding that rear love a second tone round is what dreams are made of.
What an amazing story worth all the stars in the sky
This book has left an impression on my heart I wasn’t sure if I wanted to laugh, cry, or shout while reading it. There’s so many characters you’ll get to meet in Jaxson and Kellie’s (Peaches) story that play such a huge part that you’ll be tripping over your heart from the way it swells in your chest. I have to admit I got choked up several times reading this spectacular book. I don’t want to give away to much of this story and ruin it for you however I will say that Alandra Knight has definitely earned a five star rating and my stamp of approval .
Hot and steamy love story.
Another romantic love story within the Brentwood family with unexpected twists and turns. I loved reading and watching all the children growing up together. Definitely one to read if you like hot, steamy scenes!
A two-sided coin.
The beginning is heartbreaking. Tragedy is brought to 3 of the 4 brothers and the repercussions go on and on. Jaxson and Kelly find each other and sparks fly.
The story rides the waves of emotions while the two find their way. The years pass quickly as the family finds their ways to deal with the heartbreak and memories. In the midst of it all are the children, parents and grandparents who will make you smile.
The ending is a tear jerker but leaves a lot of questions to be answered.
This book took me by surprise. A typical romance with a twist I didn’t see coming. I absolutely adored this book, sobbed and smiled. I couldn’t wait to read more and binged in the series in a weekend and have found a new favourite author.
Jason and Kellie….true love will win in the end.
A captivatingly beautiful romance read – the first in the Finding our Forever series by Alandra Knight. This book with it’s relatable characters and smooth flowing storyline will captivate and please. This is Jaxson and Kellie’s story. Jaxson is a widow raising his daughters and since he’s already had the love of a lifetime – he wasn’t looking for love to strike again, but then Kellie – both have pasts that keep them from jumping right into the chemistry that’s there but will they be able to overcome and find a forever love?
This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.
This book and series is a heartbreaking story, but then everything gets better when they meet their women. This book had me on edge of seat to see what happens next. So many coincidences from the past to present. I couldn’t put book down once started.
I loved Jaxson and Kellie together, they both may have gone through tragic pasts but they never knew how connected they was. Kellie brought Jaxson out of his stupor and Jaxson tamed Kellie. They may of had ups and downs but they finally get through it.
I loved how Kellie was with the kids.
I highly recommend this book.
I think that the paperback edition must be different then the kindle edition with all the 5 star reviews. This book was worse then book 1 – there was so many grammar mistakes that I had to put the book down numerous times. But what was really disappointing is I read book 1 so I knew what was going to happen to Jaxson & Kellie, there was no surprise. Also a lot of things in this book was in book 1 but some things were new. Again this story has to much written about other characters so it doesn’t flow and gets confusing while reading. Also without giving any spoilers away the thing with Mateo and Kellie that happens and then when proof is found and it isn’t settled then is just unbelievable. Also Jaxson and Aliana is to unbelievable. I hoping book 3 will be better.
OMG Jaxson and Kellie.
Jaxson lost his forever in a auto mobile accident leaving him a single father of twin daughters. After years of being alone he decides to go to the Main Street fair. He meets the lovely Kellie. They fall in love over the next few weeks. Years later Kellie gets her dream job and moves to Alaska. Can their relationship survive the distance?
Loved this story. It is nice to get the other perspectives from the first book in this series. Sometimes I had to think really hard about what happened as it was a long time in between books. I think they should be read consecutively to get the whole picture. I will reread when I have a chance to make sure I did not miss anything. I totally love this series and this story!!
