About this listen
A woman who can’t let go. The wounded veteran who broke her heart.
The day Michael Anderson left town to join the military, is the day Reyna’s world came crashing down around her. They’d been high school sweethearts destined to walk down the aisle…until they weren’t.
Now, years later, he’s back and desperate for a second chance.
When someone tries to abduct her, Michael offers her his protection. But she worries it comes at a cost she can’t pay…her still broken heart.
Former Army Ranger Michael Anderson is good at what he does. A bodyguard for Knight Security, he’s highly sought after. So, when someone tries to kidnap the woman he still loves, Michael knows there is no one more qualified to protect her.
Unfortunately, Reyna’s trust in him was broken a long time ago. And if he’s going to earn it back, he has to do the second hardest thing he’s ever done…walk away and allow another member of his team to take the lead.
But after tragedy strikes, Michael and Reyna are pushed together once more, and this time he plans to make her see that he’s no longer the teen who walked away…but a man ready to risk it all.
If you are looking for a swoon-worthy romantic suspense, with no spice, a protective Christian hero seeking forgiveness, a small town that protects their own, and a team of wounded veterans turned private security officers, then Second Chance Serenity is for you!
This Christian Romantic Suspense deals with:
-Coping with PTSD
-Struggling with forgiveness
-Seeking God in everything.
The Coastal Hope series can be enjoyed in any order!

Story
When Eliza's life is threatened, she turns to a handsome veteran for help. I Left everything I've ever known behind. And it might cost me my life. The moving truck hadn't even been unpacked when my fresh start went up in flames. A frightening letter left in my mailbox and signed Always Yours sends me running to the only man in town who can help me. Driven by his protective nature and a mission he believes comes from God, ex-Army Ranger Lance Knight agrees, despite the fact that I've made it no secret I want nothing to do with him--or anyone for that matter.

Story
Patience Whitford spent the last two seasons watching her elder sisters make grand matches. She is thoroughly apprehensive with the notion of being limited by marriage. But that seems like an inconsequential concern with no prospects on the horizon to follow in her sisters' footsteps. And to make matters worse, she is uncommonly jealous of all of the military officers she's befriended and their grand adventures. When Major Ashley Stuart is assigned to investigate some petty crimes near his brother's estate in Greenwich, it soon becomes apparent that there is something much larger going on.

I cannot wait for the next book!
For my first ever Christian romance reads (this series), I could not be more happy with these! I've recommended the series to my husband and my mom, and some more sisters in Christ. I love the faith that is shown within these books, and I kept finding myself wanting moreand wondering what was going to happen next everytime I had to stop and complete a task. Fantastic job with these amazing stories, and I can't wait to read the next one!
