Building a Second Chance

Building Love series Prequel

By: Janice Lam

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

She bought a condemned building sight unseen. He thought her dreams were impractical. Together, they'll build something that lasts.

She came to Pine Ridge with nothing but hope—and a building everyone said couldn't be saved.

Widow Clara Whitfield has spent every penny of her late husband's insurance on a condemned building in a Colorado mountain town she's never visited. Her dream? A lending library where the community can gather. The reality? Rotting floors, a collapsed ceiling, and a carpenter who thinks she's foolish for trying.

He stopped believing in dreams the day his father died.

Samuel Carter is the only builder in Pine Ridge, and he's spent three years just surviving. When the city widow asks him to perform a miracle in six weeks—in time to impress a railroad investor who could transform their town—he should say no. But something about Clara's determination makes him want to believe again.

When a devastating flood threatens to destroy everything they've built, Clara and Samuel must decide what matters most—playing it safe, or risking their hearts on a second chance at happiness.

As the deadline approaches and the town rallies behind them, Clara discovers that the stubborn carpenter who challenged her at every turn has become the one person she can't imagine building her future without.

Building a Second Chance is a sweet historical romance about community, courage, and the foundation of the Carter family legacy in Pine Ridge, Colorado.
