The Queen of Second Chances

The Queen of Second Chances is the story of a young woman who champions seniors' hopes and dreams while challenging their worst enemies: regret and abuse. Along the way, she seeks her own second chances. Carraway (Carra) Quinn is a free-spirited English major confronting an unreceptive job market. Desperate for cash, she reluctantly agrees to her real estate agent stepmother's marketing scheme: infiltrate a local senior center as a recreational aide, ingratiate herself with the members, and convince them to sell their homes.
Jay Prentiss is a straitlaced, overprotective attorney whose beloved but mentally fragile Nana attends that center. More compassionate than calculating, Carra discovers she loves working with the seniors and convinces Jay to finance innovations to the Center's antiquated programming. Her ingenuity injects new enthusiasm among the seniors, inspiring them to confront and reverse the regrets of their past.
An unlikely romance develops. But when Carra's memoir-writing class prompts Jay's Nana to skip town in search of a lost love, the two take off on a cross-country, soul-searching chase that will either deepen their relationship or tear them apart forever.
