Decisive Second Chance Web Novels & Stories

Rowan Hale spent seven years giving everything to her husband Dominic Pryce and his family: her savings, her career, her health. When the dead rose in the winter after the Great Flood, he had one seat left on the evacuation truck, and he gave it to his mistress. Rowan’s own sister was the mistress, and the child Rowan had raised as a nephew was theirs. Rowan died in the snow with the truth in her mouth like ash. Then she woke up in her own bed, with ninety days left on a clock only she could see. Rowan walks away from the marriage on day one. She has no tears left, only a paper trail and a grandmother’s sealed inheritance that her husband never knew existed. She sells what the end of the world will make worthless and buys what it will make priceless. A strange spatial ability she barely understands is awakening in her hands. The whole neighborhood thinks grief has broken her mind, and her ex-husband is already circling her new money. But this apocalypse is wrong. The weather is turning too early. A silent, watchful neighbor with a soldier’s eyes keeps noticing things about her that no stranger should. And someone is moving through Rowan’s carefully rebuilt life who seems to remember the first timeline too. She died once because she trusted the wrong people. This time she’s counting every day.

Seventy-seven days. That was how long Marcus Harper had gone without saying a single word to his wife. No argument. No explanation. Just silence. And the worst part? Lila Harper still loved him.

Lila came to Dominic to end her marriage. She never expected him to become the man who made her believe she could love again. But Dominic has never stayed for anyone. And Lila refuses to become invisible for another man.
