Second Act

Series: Second Glances, Book 2

Lights. Camera. Romance.

Jessica Quillen, veterinarian for the charitable K-9 Angelz program, didn’t mean to stumble into the middle of a New York movie shoot. She just wanted to rescue the stray dog she’d been chasing. Instead, she’s playing catch-up with her ex-fiancé and the screen’s hottest action hero, Hugh Baker. The only man she ever loved. The dream that disappeared. The heartthrob who’s now hoping for a “take two.”

Seeing Jessica triggers emotions Hugh has tried to forget. Abandoned by his mother to foster care, he still struggles to feel worthy of love and to open his heart to a woman. His biggest mistake was not trusting Jessica. It was his fault she left. All he wants now is to make up for lost time. But he has to prove that she can trust him.

Though the sparks still smolder, he’s still Hollywood—a world far away from Jessica’s. Now it’s up to her to give their love story a happily ever after.

Praise for the Book

“The reason why “Second Act” works for me is not so much because of its hero but its heroine. Here is a woman who stands on her own two feet and it seems to be less HER who needs HIM (with all his millions) but it seemed more like that he needs her and THAT I liked! A lot.”
–Elke, Jars and Spices

“Hugh Baker is an awesome hero. His charisma and take-charge attitude makes him very appealing.”
–Vikki, Romance Writer and Lover of Books

“Nancy Herkness does a great job of digging deep into the lives of her characters so that you care about what happens to them. She always sees New York City with its infinite complexities, brings to life the world of the insanely rich, and truly creates believable scenes filled with well-developed characters.”
–Escondida, Amazon reviewer
