5-Stars
Anna and Derek are meant to be mates but when her parents’ divorce, she is forced to move away with her mother at sixteen. Separated from each other they both believe that the other moved on. Ten years later as her father is starting to die, Anna returns to settle his accounts. She knows she will run into Derek.

When he finds out that her father is near death he begins to prepare for her returning, believing whole heartedly that she has moved on.
I loved following the reunion of these two wonderful characters. There were so many emotions present in this novel. I hated that the two lost all that time together. I found that the storyline was easy to read and get lost in. I also really enjoyed Spence’s character. He was Anna’s best friend.
A Second Chance by Brooke May is the first book in the Powder River Pack series. It is a great story about fighting for what you want or learning to live with the hole it leaves behind.
This is a new author to me and I was excited to get into this book. The blurb promised an angsty tale and that is definitely what you get. I was drawn into Derek so easily. It was so easy to feel what he was going through. And it was easy to understands Annabelle’s decision over her new life and her old.
The story had good pace that flowed from start to end. There was never a point where my attention wandered or I thought there was too much going on. An enjoyable book, I am looking forward to the rest of the series.
This is a paranormal-shifters story that I enjoyed from beginning to end. This is my first book by this author and I enjoyed how I was pulled into the story and felt that I was there with the characters. I liked Derek and Annabelle. They had great chemistry and I also I felt compassion for them. They are both angry people, not only angry with others that hurt them but with each other. This is their story and if they will get a second chance at a life together. I highly recommend reading it.
