She thought she’d never see him again. He didn’t even know he’d left something behind. Sunny Brightwater ’s life revolves around her eight-year-old daughter Iris, until a field trip to a beachside garage collides with the past she’s spent years burying. Standing at the workbench is Knox Ravencrest : the tattooed, brooding mechanic who broke her heart and vanished without explanation. Knox has spent years trying to outrun his mistakes until a pair of green eyes stops him cold. Iris is unmistakably his. And the woman he never stopped loving? She’s furious, heartbroken, and still impossibly beautiful. As Knox fights for a place in Iris’s life, he must prove he's no longer the reckless man who walked away. But when emotions reignite and old wounds resurface, co-parenting becomes a minefield of passion, pain, and possibility. Can they turn a missed chance into a new beginning, or will history repeat itself? Second Chance Dad is a poignant, slow-burn small-town romance about love lost, family found, and the courage it takes to claim your second chance.
