FIRST LOVE, SECOND CHANCE

Maribel McCray knew moving back to Horseshoe, Texas, would mean facing Elias Rebel, the cowboy she was forbidden to love in high school. She just didn’t expect it to happen so soon. With her teenage son, Chase, in trouble, she needs Elias’s help. He may be a Rebel, sworn enemy of every McCray, but he’s also Chase’s father.

For the lone bachelor of the Rebel clan, there’s only one way to make up for lost years with his son—become a family for real. But Maribel’s distance runs deeper than the Rebel-McCray feud. Elias won’t settle for a marriage of convenience with the woman he’s falling for again. How can he convince Maribel some second chances are worth taking?

Maribel is back in her hometown after a family member died leaving her to relocate to a friends house until she gets back on her feet. It seems thought he son Chase isn't taking the change too well and and has gotten himself into trouble with the law. Elias is one of the people who caught her son Chase in the act and bring him to the station. Little did he expect to find out that that same kid is his own child. Now he wasn't to be a better figure in his sons life and make up for lost time and get his son back on good behavior.

I really enjoyed this book. There was that connection between Maribel and Elias. I loved seeing how much of a positive change Elias was on Chase. He really wasn't a bad kid he just got lead astray for a while being new and it was nice seeing him improve through the book. I loved getting to know Maribel story and why she was standoffish and getting to know he background. I thought it was interesting how Elias took the news to having a child and seeing what he would do with that bit of information. There was plenty going to keep the reader interested and loads of drama and I really found myself enjoying the book to the point where it was hard for me to put down at times. Overall this was a pretty great book.
