Who says you can’t marry the same mistake twice?
Certainly not Nya Perez…because that’s precisely what she’s done.
Liam Watts is the bane of her existence.
Her first love. Father of her child. And breaker of her heart.
Oh, he’s also her ex-husband. Well, he was, anyway…right up til this morning, when she woke up beside him in a Vegas hotel room, sheathed in satin and tulle with a sinking … and tulle with a sinking feeling in the pit of her stomach.
If it were just between the two of them, an annulment would be the obvious solution. After all, they wouldn’t be the first to marry and divorce at the little white chapel in the span of twenty-four hours.
But their daughter’s greatest wish has just been granted, and if there’s one heart Nya wants to protect more than her own, it’s Ellie’s.
So, she promises to give it six months.
There’s no way she’ll be swayed by his thick southern drawl, those well-defined abs, or that annoyingly delectable scruff lining his cheeks.
Nope. She’s got it all under control. Six months of playing house, then everything can go back to the way it was before.
But first she’ll have to muddle through marriage with Liam—take two.

Nya and Liam- so good together!! I loved them!! Another great rom-com by Heather Orgeron!! This book gives all the feels. The brokeness of Nya when she left Liam the first time to the true love that Liam has for Nya and their daughter!!
How get back to happily ever after is so fun and real!! Why I love best about this story is that true love and honesty wins! Such a great thing for all to realize in life!!
This is such a cute second chance love story! It was exactly what I needed. Something light and steamy with an adorably quirky Hero paired with Type A personality sassy Latina. Not a chapter went by that didn’t have me smiling or laughing. Liam’s unwavering love for Nya was so swoon worthy!
This is my first time reading anything by Heather Orgeron and if all her Heroes/Heroines are like Liam & Nya, then I have some catching up to do! If you’re looking for a sweet and fluffy read, this book is what you need!

4.5 stars! This is actually my first book by Heather alone, so she is pretty new to me. I was drawn to this book because it has basically all of my favorite tropes rolled into one book. It has waking up married in Vegas, a bit of enemies to lovers banter, and a marriage reconciliation. I have asked in book groups for books that resemble Sweet Home Alabama. There is nothing like a good reconciliation story with your first and only love. This book delivered.
Nya and Liam fell madly in love when they were younger and made some very bad choices which led to their divorce. They have been co-parenting their daughter for 11 years and Liam never has given up hope that one day they would be a family again. He has never stopped loving Nya. So, on their daughters birthday, she wishes for them to get back together and in a drunken haze, Nya makes a decision to try it out for her for 6 months. Jumping at his chance, Liam whisks her away to Vegas and gets the party started. This book has real issues, each of them can’t see what they did wrong the first time until they communicate. Watching these two navigate a whole new relationship is beautiful. You can see that neither of them has ever let the other go, it was a great story.
This was the easiest 5 stars to give a book!
Sexy, hilariously funny with a touch of angst to give a little more kick!
Excellent writing, with phenomenal characters, this story is worthy of all the stars!!
Even the secondary characters brought something unique to the story.
We all need Abu in our lives!!
There are second chances romances and then there’s Nya and Liam’s story.
We all pretty much know what happens in second chance romances, but how it happens in THIS story, is what makes it a truly unique one of a kind read.
Feel good, laugh out loud, and a steamy swoon fest had me falling in love with these delicious characters.
Liam is the all American alpha god hero, Nya is a fiery Latina with a spit fire no BS attitude and a ready “chancleta” to toss. These 2 have the best chemistry in and out of the bedroom. Their snarky sarcastic banter was not only hilarious, but sharp, edgy and on point. They should be the perfect couple right?
Not!
They’re exes, and what they were willing to do make someone’s wish come true just warmed my heart.
What happens is an amazing heartfelt adventure of pure undadelterated love, humor and passion. There was more to this story than just the second chances.
You just have to read and find out for yourself!
Who says opportunity doesn’t knock twice?
Once is a mistake, twice is the universe slapping you in the face saying- Take Notice. Take Two!
Nya Perez is back with her ex-husband Liam watts with no recollection of how she ended up with him…AGAIN
Maybe something to do with their daughters birthday wish
For better or for worse, they’re back again and they plan to ride it out. Only Liam has other plans
Their road won’t be easy, lots of HARD work to be required…
“It’s going to take honesty, bravery, and loads of grace to repair the damage between you two.”
Liam is willing and ready to unleash the O-mageddon on her and his inappropriate charm is a sure fire win!!
It’s a hilarious anecdotes sprinkled, second chance story that will make you laugh and swoon.
Liam is handsome and naughty, his mission in life- to make his wife happy
“I feel like my life could have been so different had I known a job existed where you do nothing but touch titties all day.”
See what I mean.
A honeymoon with a coconut cracking on the head later, it’s time for Hot sex…and there’s aplenty
I loved reading it, you will too!
4 stars for For Better or For Best
A Must Read Feel Good Romance
SWOON ALERT! This second chance romance brings ALL THE FEELS and a whole bunch of laugh-out-loud moments. No one does rom-com and brings out all the emotion like Heather! Liam is alpha sexiness and Nya is all sass! You will LOVE them!!!
They were married once and when Liam screwed up, Nya walked away. It’s been ten years and after a drunken night, her ex becomes her new husband. She’s ready to erase this mistake a second time, but since it’s her daughter’s birthday wish she agrees to six months as a lawfully wedded wife. It’s going to be a fun ride!!!
One of my favorite tropes and this author delivers a beautiful love, amazing family, comic relief and Epic HOTNESS!!! That bathroom scene…DAMN! These two sizzle. However, Nya is not going to give Liam her heart without making him work for it.
Nya and Liam have a past they need to work through and a bright future to embrace. This is a feel good romance. It will make you smile, laugh (a lot) and completely fall in love.
An unforgettable feel good romance. You need this story!
There were sooo many times I laughed out loud during this book!
I had a smile almost permanently planted on my face the entire read.
But the star of the story, the one who stole my heart? Liam – obviously
MEGA SWOON… Gah, I just want to bottle Liam for all those days my bf disappoints me (seriously though, I’ll take him because he is hella hot)
Nya -while stubborn and a little cold in the beginning- eventually grew on me.
Other pluses: dog, kid, crazy family and over-the-top/in-your-face best friend.
Fucking fantastic read, highly recommend.
Bravo, Heather M. Orgeron!
It’s rare that I’ve read a book where the hero and heroine are, or have been, married to each other and get their second chance. This is a new author for me, so I was a little skeptical when I started the book, but in no time at all I was engrossed in the story. And I now have another talent to add to my list of not-to-be-missed authors!
Nya and Liam were young and in love. They married without the big wedding, and it lasted until their daughter was four. They remained friends for Ellie’s sake and, seven years later, after a night of too many shots, they somehow end up married again. Liam is thrilled; Nya is not. Considering it was their daughter, Ellie’s, birthday wish, let’s just say Nya feels a bit stuck.
She’s feisty and sassy with a hot temper, and he loves nothing more than to wind her up. Together, they’re snarky and snappy, and their chemistry is out of this world. But underneath her fiery Latina personality is a woman who still feels a little uncertain and insecure. Liam broke her heart once, and if he does it again, Nya doesn’t think she’ll survive it. But Liam knows he has a lot to make up for, and he’s determined to win Nya’s heart once more.
Oh my heart, these two are so much fun, and so hilarious, but their story is so touching. I didn’t know whether I was coming or going between my side-splitting laughter and my heartstrings being manipulated so masterfully. They won me over from the beginning, and I was sorry to see the book end. It’s charming, hilarious, steamy and heartfelt, and you definitely won’t want to pass this one up!
I received a complimentary ARC – early release copy of this book in Kindle format from the author for review purposes.
This is a new standalone story from a favorite author of mine. The author is one of my favorites because she writes with lots of humor. This story was not as funny as her other stories but it was a fun romp with a 2nd chance at love romance.
Liam and Nya married some 10 years before when she got pregnant but they both were very much in love. However, life got in the way and Liam made some bad choices and Nya divorced him when their daughter was very young. Now she has a boyfriend but their daughter wants them to get married so as a birthday present they head to Vegas for a quickie wedding.
Liam has always loved Nya and he knows he screwed up but he plans to show her how great they can be together. Nya agrees to give it 6 months. Can she resist Liam and her daughter? Well you will have to read to find out.
If you love second chances and a couple that love each other but couldn’t be together and a matchmaking daughter then you will adore this light hearted romance.
Take Two by Heather M. Orgeron was such a fun take on a second chance romance. The last thing Nya ever expected was to marry her ex-husband in Vegas after walking away from him. She is ready to fix her mistake, but she does not want to break her daughter’s heart. So, she will give it six months. She can make it through six months, right?
I just loved Nya and Liam. He was sexy, charming and determined. Nya was just as strong and full of sass. She was not going to let Liam get into her heart again, but Liam is excited and determined to win her back. It was so much fun watching these two navigate through what they each wanted and watching them fall. It was a fun and charming story full of heart and some of the best feels.

Happy reading!
First off, you can always expect a great read from Heather M. Orgeron. Her books are so well-written, they have a ton of heart, and they are for readers that like mature, witty conversation, deep emotions, humor and heat. She is a master of rom-coms that bring you a balance of humor and feeling that leaves you so, so, so satisfied
Take Two is a second chance romance that if filled to brim with emotion, but not overloaded with angst, and to many moments that will have you laughing so hard people around you will be wondering what you’re reading. Liam is sexy, determined and wants Nya back. Nya is all sass and smarts and confidence.
Liam and Nya were married once before, but Liam messed up, and Nya cut her losses. Ten years later, they find themselves married AGAIN after a night of drunken adventures! Nya wants to forget it ever happened, but her daughter gets her agree to a trial period. And boy does Nya make Liam work hard to earn this true second chance at happiness.
If you have never read Heather Orgeron you are missing out on some of the most amusing tales ever told/read. Heather has a way of writing knee-slapper, rib-tickler repartees that will have you laughing out loud with some of her tomfooleries.
Take Two is about a couple Nya Perez & Liam Watts who were married, they share a daughter, Ellie but divorced ten years ago. Ellie’s birthday wish is for her parents to get back together again. They wake up in Vegas and what happens in Vegas never stays there and this is the start of absurdity! I hope that you will enjoy this comedy.
Heather Orgeron is one of my 1-click authors, and this second chance rom-com is no exception. When Nya wakes up with a dreadful hangover, wearing a wedding dress, a wedding ring and curled up next to Liam Watts, her ex-(only not quite ex anymore) husband, she realizes that she is in serious trouble. Liam has always been the sexiest man she has ever known and if he had only put his club ahead of her and their baby daughter ten years ago, they would still be married.
Liam has never stopped loving Nya and gets her to promise to give their marriage six months, give him six months to prove that he has changed. Nya agrees but maintains that this is temporary and after six months it will be over. This means that Liam, with the help of their daughter Elle, needs to work fast to prove that he is a changed man. Nya discovers what a great dad Liam is and that just makes him even sexier. But when once again it looks like Liam puts the club before Nya, it could mean the end of their relationship again.
Sweet, sexy and sassy with a big helping of humor – another winner.
Nya and Liam are couple goals. So what that they failed their first marriage to each other. They tried again ten years later and not only was it hilarious, it was also very sweet. Liam will sweep you off your feet within the first chapter. He was just so sweet and determined to win the love back of Nya. You really feel for Nya, she has had her heart broke by Liam before. I understood a 100% her not wanting to go through that hurt again, but I was a little put off on how against Liam she was at first. Their connection never dulled and shined through the pages!
Heather M. Orgeron mixes sweet, heat, and funny together perfectly! Liam and Nya’s romance is one you don’t want to miss!
Second Chance Romance | Accidental Marriage
Once again, Heather M. Orgeron amazes me with her skillful writing and realistic characters! I’ve been a fan of her work from the beginning and always find myself anxious for me. In this one, readers will view the second chance at love between Nya and Liam.
This is a special book to me not only because it’s a second chance romance between a DIVORCED couple, but because it also incorporates one of my newly favorite tropes; accidental marriage! Heather turned this book into an intriguing read with a bit of a slow burn and a whole lot of love. Seeing these two come to terms with their past and let go for their future (and for their child) was absolutely breathtaking!
That all being said, I adored this book and am looking forward to much more by the author in the near future. I love her books to pieces!
A second chance romance with characters that can steal your heart. Ellie stole the show in my opinion, but Liam and Nya certainly had the capacity to light my kindle on fire. This author never fails to deliver a great story that makes you laugh and lose all track of time. Well sleep in my case because I kept saying one more chapter. One to add to your list of must reads.
5 Estrellas and so much more!
A real laugh out loud page turner with all the feels! I loved Nya and Liam. Enjoyed their banter and off the charts chemistry so much. Mix in a tell it like it is pre-teen, and you have perfection with this trio! Nya was such a spitfire and couldn’t help but love her immediately. Liam definitely won me over with his swoonyness, hotness and his determination.
“What’s yours is mine, sweetheart.”
Both of their families are so much goals for me, it’s not even funny. I fell in love with them all too and made me wish I was part of the family.
Heather has put out another unputdownable book I couldn’t get enough of. Everything she writes is pure gold on paper and why she’s one of my automatic 1-Click authors. Take Two was amazingly written in dual POV and a complete standalone with it’s own HEA. You dont want to miss out on Nya and Liam with all their shenanigans.
This might be my new favorite second chance romance! I loved that they drunkenly got married again! Liam & Nya were so entertaining and I loved every second of these two attempting to make their marriage work a second time. It was lighthearted with touches of angst and the book just read so quickly for me.
I seriously loved it!
I want to start off with I loved everything about this second chance romance.
The blurb intrigued me but the story blew me away, I was touched on so many levels by Nya Perez and her ex husband Liam’s story. Liam was her first love and the father of her daughter Ellie and like most children (who are in a split home) Ellie wishes every birthday and Christmas for her parents to get back together, so imagine her surprise when Nya and Liam arrive home announcing they have tied the knot, but it’s not all it seems and Nya has told Liam in no uncertain terms he needs to prove himself over the next six months because she won’t let him break her heart again……
This book has all the feels, it’s a story of love, romance, passion and humour, it has plenty of laugh out loud moments and as you would expect from this author Ellie stole the show with her classic one liners only a child could deliver. I loved the characters, the plot, the chemistry well I loved it all and I really didn’t want this book to end so I urge you all to one click this gem of a read.
Take Two was a light-hearted, heartwarming, second chance rom com that I loved so much!! This book had the perfect combination of humor, steamy moments and romance. The plot was solid and everything about the storyline gave me all the feels.
Liam and Nya were hysterical, their witty banter and the unique dynamics of their relationship kept me on my toes. I adored their daughter, Ellie and the Perez and Watts family antics were hilarious! And Liam with his irresistible charm and sexiness made me swoon so hard. He had the ability to melt a woman’s heart and set your panties of fire at the same!!
Take Two is a must read and I would definitely be interested in reading books about the secondary characters.
