"Utterly charming and sigh-worthy."—Josie Silver, #1 New York Times bestselling author of One Day in December A heartwarming story about the power of the perfect dress—and the perfect love—to change your life. Francesca Delaney has a knack for matching a bride-to-be with the wedding dress of her dreams. Her shop, The Whispering Dress, is no ordinary bridal boutique. Every gown is vintage, and the wedding dresses seem to share their stories with Francesca, pointing to which woman needs them next. Fran credits her success to two rules: never covet a dress and never sell a dress that led to a doomed marriage. But then she finds a beautiful 1950s couture floor-length gown, and her obsession threatens win out. The owner, however, would quite like the dark past of the dress to remain hidden forever... The Second Chance Boutique is a beach read perfect for fans of Danielle Steel and Josie Silver, promising that the romance of a wedding day can provide a second chance stronger than any dark past.

A "second chance shop" can be as simple as a thrift store where you pick up a hand-me-down t-shirt. But life may offer us second chances of a different type: a chance to try something new, correct a mistake, change course, expand our understanding, find a friend, chase a dream, or fall in love. This collection includes stories about baseball, ghosts, zinnias, a bracelet, an IBM punch card machine, a farm pond, fortunetelling, housesitting, swimming, a high school, a diner, a shop in Brooklyn in 1902, the Nevada desert in 1958, and a cat on a Chicago fire escape in 1962. The Second Chance Shop explores what people do when they're presented with-or seek out-a second chance.
