Second Chance - Hardcover

Dr. Chance Ramsey has built a comfortable life of order, skill, and quiet detachment-until a cryptic letter from his elderly godfather, Manny Montoya, draws him back to Hermosa, the small New Mexico mountain town he has left behind. There, long-buried family secrets begin to surface: the truth about his father, his heritage, and events that have shaped him in ways he never understood.

As Chance finds himself entwined with the community of his youth, he navigates moral dilemmas, ethical challenges, and lingering grief. As he gradually understands more about his own background and about the difficulties and strengths of the people he encounters in Hermosa, Chance forms a bond with the determined and spirited Vangie Ramirez and must make wrenching choices about how to lead his life going forward.

Second Chance is a gripping, heartfelt journey of discovery, resilience, and redemption-a story that reminds us that even in the wake of tragedy, life offers the chance to rebuild, love, and leave a lasting legacy.
