Love's Second Chance (Second Chances #1)(64)
He had begun to lean his head down, so I tilted my head back to receive the kiss he was about to bestow on me. Before our lips touched, I paused to say one more thing to him before sealing our night with a kiss. They were words that came straight from my heart and soul, and from every fiber of my being. His blue eyes stared intently into mine when I said, “And I had a second chance at love. You’ve given me that love, a family, and a new life. You will always be mine.”
He smiled and whispered across my lips, “Always.”

Chapter 1 - Sweet Serendipity
Rebecca pulled open the curtains in her bedroom and looked out at the bright May morning. The sunlight cascaded through the window pane causing miniature rainbow prisms to dance along her walls. Another day, she thought to herself. Let the morning craziness begin.
As if on cue, her sixteen-year-old daughter, Riley, screamed at the top of her lungs, “Mom!
Rebecca ran down the hall where she spotted her ten-year-old son, Adam, holding a big black spider in front of his older sister’s face.
“Get him out of my room, now! I’m going to be late for school.” Riley demanded.
“Come on, Adam, stop teasing your sister, please. You need to get dressed and eat your breakfast.” Rebecca gave her son the look that told him to get moving or else.
“Geez mom, I was only having fun,” Adam responded as he slowly walked down the stairs into the kitchen, opened up the back door and lowered the spider on the deck. Rebecca poured a cup of coffee while she lovingly watched her son spare the spider’s life.
“OK buddy, what would you like for breakfast this morning?” she asked him.
“Pancakes,” he answered instantly.
“Pancakes it is then.”
Rebecca pulled a large bowl from a cabinet and began mixing together the ingredients for the pancakes. She didn’t believe in feeding her children frozen food. She wanted her kids to start their mornings with a homemade meal. While the pancakes were cooking, she hurried around the kitchen packing lunches for her husband, Jack, and her children, Riley and Adam.
Some mornings she felt as if she was Wonder Woman, capable of taking on the world. While other mornings she felt as if she was on auto pilot, following the same monotonous routines day in and day out.
Riley charged into the kitchen with her backpack on her back. She grabbed her lunch bag and headed for the door when Rebecca yelled out to her, “Oh no you don’t young lady, get your butt back here.”
“I don’t have time, Mom. Ashlee is already out in the driveway waiting for me. I’m going to be late.”
Rebecca handed her a plain pancake and told her to eat it on her way to school. She kissed her cheek and wished her a good day.
“What do you have planned after school?” Rebecca quickly asked her as she walked out the door.
“I have basketball practice, so you’ll have to pick me up at five thirty.”
“Thanks for the advanced notice, Kiddo, Adam has hockey at four so I might be a few minutes late.”
“Yeah, fine, whatever. See ya!” Riley waved goodbye as she got into the car and closed the passenger door.
Rebecca took a deep breath; she knew she should be grateful that Riley was a good kid as far as seventeen-year-olds went. She got good grades and played team sports, but Rebecca missed the times when Riley needed her and looked up to her as her hero. Rebecca watched as the car pulled out of the driveway. She gave a quick wave goodbye. She knew that Riley now had her own friends and her own routines. She no longer needed Rebecca the same way that she used to. She was her own person now.
