A Second Chance
(2018)(The fourth book in the Boarding House Misfits series)
A Novella by Annie Boone
Tragedy. Despair. A family torn apart. Can God make anything good come of such a mess?
Harry Cardwell's life is a wasteland. He's gone from a respectable family man to a drunken vagrant in record time. He literally has nothing but the clothes on his back. The happy life he once shared with a wife and their children is a memory he cherishes, but he despises it at the same time since he knows he'll never have a second chance. He doesn't deserve a second chance, after all.
Suzie Cardwell was to the end of her rope. She couldn't take another minute of her husband's lies. She knew what he'd been doing, she just didn't know how bad it had truly gotten. But the information she had was enough. He had to go. She and the boys would figure out a way to make it on their own. They'd both struggled after the death of their son. Suzie had been the strong one. She'd relied on her faith while Harry had turned to the bottle. Now their lives were shattered - not because of the death of their son, but by Harry's reaction to his death.
In his hour of need, Harry meets Dolores O'Hanlon who takes mercy on him and helps him make decisions that will turn him around in his path. When he makes his way back to sobriety, will he have the faith and courage to try to win back the love of his life and his family? Will Suzie's heart be open or will the past keep her from seeing the husband she'd once loved with all her heart?
