Songbird's Second Chance by Ashley Farley
Southern Fiction, Sister Fiction, 295 pages
Published April 16, 2024 by AHF Publishing
Thirty years ago, Savannah’s child was taken from her shortly after giving birth. The next day, she ran away to the Pacific Northwest where she’s been living ever since. But her circumstances have changed. The tavern where she bartends is closing and her landlord is selling the house she rents. Now seems like the right time to go home to South Carolina, but does she have the courage to face her past?
Upon her mother’s death, while searching for funeral instructions, Harper comes across a sealed envelope containing a worn scrap of yellow flannel, an address in a small town she’s never heard of, and her adoption papers. Everything about her life suddenly makes sense, including why she and her mother were so very different. Determined to find her birth mother, Harper embarks on a journey of discovery to the South Carolina Lowcountry.
My thoughts about Songbird's Second Chance ~~
(I love to note the first lines of the books I'm reading. First lines can really grab a reader's attention and I love seeing where the author takes the reader after their first lines.)
First lines—"I feel all eyes boring into me, watching me, waiting for me to make a wrong move. I'm an imposter, a wedding crasher, the newcomer in a small town, where everyone knows everyone else."
This series just keeps getting better and better! I've become more and more invested in all of the characters lives with each new story. And I want more!
I love this whole series and this installment takes us into the world of Savannah, who fled the family home thirty years ago, taking her secrets with her. Can she go home and make things right? And maybe, just maybe, she'll find what she's been searching for all those years.
Harper's life spins out of control when she finds unexplained items in her late mother's things. Searching for answers, she heads to South Carolina to see if she can connect with possible family members she didn't even know she had.
Be prepared to devote some time to this book when you sit down to read it because you are not going to want to stop once you start. This book is amazing, with its wonderful characters and all of the family drama and emotions going on. I highly recommend Songbird's Second Chance!
I received a copy of Songbird's Second Chance from the author and this is my honest opinion.
