More Life as a Dog by L.A Davenport

A Dozen Second Chances by Kate Field - Contemporary Romance/Romcom

"What are the chances that twelve little tokens could change a life?"

Eve works in a school as a P.A. She gave up her dream of archeology when her sister died

leaving a two year old daughter Caitlyn. Eve has since brought up Caitlyn as her own and

left archeology and a past love Paddy, behind her when he walked out at a critical time in

her life. Caitlyn has now become a young woman and is off to Paris to work as an au pair.

On leaving she gives Eve a collection of cards each with the instructions that she is to be

kind to herself. She has to fill them in with something she has done to fulfill this and then

send it to Caitlyn. I took to this very early on. It struck a chord with being kind to yourself-

sometimes we put others first in life and forget ourselves in the process. Selfish is very

different to self care. Eve had good principles, was selfless , passionate over some things

and had a steely determination- something I like in a lead character.  A grandmother

who provided not only grounding but wonderful laughs. A book that is more than a

good story, a book with a message. One of hope and love, not to look over your

shoulder too much but to reach forward in life. One life - live it!

A Dozen Second Chances What are the chances that twelve little tokens could change a life? Seventeen years ago, Eve Roberts had the wonderful life she’d always dreamed of: a
degree in archaeology, a gorgeous boyfriend, and exciting plans to travel the world
with him, working on digs. But when her sister Faye died, the life Eve knew ended too.
Faye’s daughter Caitlyn came to live with Eve, her boyfriend left, and she quickly gave
up on her dreams. Now approaching her fortieth birthday, Eve faces the prospect of an empty nest as
Caitlyn is leaving home. Caitlyn gives Eve a set of twelve ‘Be Kind to Yourself’ vouchers,
telling her that she has to start living for herself again, and that she should fill one i
n every time she does something to treat herself. With her very first voucher, Eve’s life will change its course. But with eleven more
vouchers to go, can Eve learn to put herself first and follow the dreams she’s kept
secret for so long? Because life is for living – and as she well knows, it’s too short
to waste even a moment… Purchase Link - https://amzn.to/2VCh3ce
