Second Chances in Brittany (en Inglés) - Anne Morenn

An award-winning and moving contemporary romance about second chances, emotional healing, and finding love.

At the end of a busy professional life spent in European capitals, Sarah Pullen has arrived in Saint-Malo on the north-west coast of France, eager to rebuild her relationship with her husband, James. She has organised a comfortable home and has made friends locally. She feels secure in the reality of their love.

But then she suffers disabling headaches. James' attitude to her leads to doubts. The marriage begins to crack open.

But only when she is finally left alone does Sarah realise what James had intended. And why.

Sarah summons the courage to start over. She sets herself goals for settling into her new life. But she is used to being busy, and as she tunes into her community, she begins to find projects that need her attention - office problems in local government, a digital system for the English expatriates who live by renting holiday cottages, a young migrant who needs to learn about Brittany, a brother-in-law looking for a place to belong.

Sarah's influence begins to reach beyond her own life into the lives of those she meets.

And then love finds her when she least expects it.

Second Chances in Brittany is the unforgettable first novel in Anne Morenn's Romance in Brittany series, a poignant, uplifting story of love, betrayal, and the healing power of starting again.
