Four women. One villa in Spain. A month that could change everything. Lotty Hernandez is exhausted from spending her life caring for everyone but herself. Rose Nguyen built a successful online brand only to discover she no longer recognizes the woman behind it. Caroline Nagle has fame, wealth, and an Oscar nomination, yet longs to disappear from public view. Evangeline Fisher spent decades building a successful career and now finds retirement far lonelier than she imagined.
When a chance invitation brings them together at a secluded villa in the hills above San Sebastián, Spain, none of them know exactly what they are seeking. Peace. Escape. A fresh start. Perhaps simply a chance to breathe. As spring unfolds beneath lemon trees and endless blue skies, the women form unexpected friendships and begin confronting the lives they left behind. Old wounds surface. Long-buried dreams reawaken.
And each woman must decide whether she has the courage to return home unchanged or embrace the possibility of a new beginning. Inspired by the timeless charm of The Enchanted April, The House of Second Chances is a warm and uplifting novel about friendship, reinvention, and discovering that it is never too late to create the life you truly want. Perfect for readers of Karen Swan, Jenny Colgan, and fans of women's fiction filled with heart, hope, and beautiful destinations.
