Once Upon A Second Chance by Claire Kirby
He shattered my heart, returned as my colleague, and knocked me up during a tornado.
Ten years after Richard Hogan left me for New York and medical school, he’s back in Tennessee—divorced, devastatingly handsome, and working at my clinic.
He got the prestigious career and society wife.
I got small town life and lonely nights.
When a tornado ravages Mount Juliet, we work side by side through the chaos.
Exhaustion and adrenaline blur boundaries until we’re tearing up the sheets.
His ex arrives like a second disaster, spreading vicious lies.
Richard’s fierce defense of me reveals feelings neither of us buried completely.
His parents swoop in with bribes—a prestigious New York position,
far from small-town life and the woman they claim is trapping their son with a pregnancy.
I’m terrified that history is about to repeat itself, only this time he’ll be leaving not just me—but his unborn child.
