A Season for Second Chances by Jenny Bayliss
5.0
Of course this plot setup is just my cup of tea. I've probably read a dozen books with a similar setup in the past 6 months. Luckily I don't seem to tire of them.... especially when they're well written like this one.
Something always causes the heroine to leave her past behind and redefine herself in a small town (or in the country). In this case, Annie catches her husband having sex with a young waitress in their restaurant. After leaving him and the restaurant behind, she ends up as a caretaker of a small historic house (and cafe) on the sea coast somewhere near Cornwall.
It is definitely more genre/women's fiction than romance, although there is definitely an HEA. But it's more about Annie redefining herself and her life, along with portraits of the characters in this tiny town. I enjoyed the characters, including Annie and John, and loved the house. I desperately want to live there!
