Second Time Around was a good book but, I felt like it was a little bit misleading. The way the characters were written, you would think they were much older. Up until Rae said how old Bennett was, I thought he and Sage were in their late 50's or early 60's. Bennett was 45 and the author never clarified how old Sage was. The way the characters spoke is what made me think they were much older. Sage asked Bennett if he was "getting fresh with her." Men and women in their 40's don't use phrases like that and, more importantly, black people in their 40's don't use phrases like that. Hell, I'm older that these characters and I don't say ish like that. Aside from that, I really loved Sage and Bennett. I'm a sucker for a second chance love story. It's always refreshing to read a book about characters in their 40's. These are the characters I can relate to. Sage and Bennett were hesitant to start a new relationship and find love again because, both of them were widowed. But, once they got past their guilt, it was on and poppin'! Second Time Around was a really good black seasoned romance. DL White is quickly becoming one of my new favorite authors.

Lovely short story
This short story was a lovely addition to the Potter Lake series. It starts about a year after the epilogue of book 1, Leslie’s Curl & Dye. However, as the main characters were not really featured in that, so you could read this on its own. This is a great read for those still in the mood for a little “holiday” in their reading as it’s set over Christmas and New Year’s. White gives another low angst relationship set in a small town. I love that this time the MC’s are in their mid-40s. Bennett and Sage are both widowed with grown children and struggling with the guilt that comes from being ready to move on. White does an amazing job of balancing their sweet & understanding with need & sexy. An easy and delightful read. I’m super excited to listen to book 3, The Guy Next Door.
