Second Chance Santa by J.J. Knight
4.0
4.25⭐️ The Perfect Christmas Read!
This book has been on my TBR since last Christmas, and I never got around to it. Until now. And I’m so, so glad I gave this book a chance. The cover is not my favourite, and although they say to not judge a book by its cover, I’ve gotten pretty good at telling if I’ll enjoy a book or not by the cover and blurb. Or so I thought. I picked up this book with very little expectations. Second chance romances are usually a bust for me, since I always think the reason why the MCs broke up in the first place is reason enough to stay away. Not this time.
Rory left Mack behind after law school with little to no explanation, moved to the other side of the country after a two year relationship because she knew it would be the best move for her career. Now, over a decade later, she’s heard Mack is working as a mall Santa… And she can’t help but go check it out for herself.
This book was absolutely wonderful. It’s Christmassy, it’s angsty in the best way, the chemistry between the MCs is insane... And although there were a couple details that were not my favourite, I know it’s a personal opinion and others won't have trouble with it. This book did just what I wanted to do, though – it put me in the Christmas spirit. So much so, that I’ve decided to put up my Christmas tree right after I’m done writing this review. Nov 30th is officially the holiday season, right?
I’m also definitely checking out the rest of the Pickle Series, because this is my first JJ Knight, but I’ll make sure it’s not my last.
