Paperback. The night they ran, the world went quiet in a way that felt unforgiving.By morning, sixteen-year-old Eli Moreno and his sisters-Maria and little Lila-are standing in the wreckage of one desperate choice: a stolen truck, shattered glass, and a system already closing in around them. All they have left is each other, and a promise they've lived by for years-don't let anyone split us up again.The court sends them somewhere they never planned for: a rural farm under the care of Jack Walker, a man with firm rules, steady hands, and a past shaped by loss he rarely speaks of. Jack never intended to take in three frightened kids with too many instincts and not enough trust-but walking away feels like another kind of failure.As days settle into routines and tensions rise beneath the surface, Eli prepares for the moment it all falls apart. He's learned that safety never lasts, that exits matter more than hope. But when his plans come to light, the fragile balance between them is tested, forcing Eli to confront a truth he's avoided for far too long-that some people don't watch you because they expect you to leave, but because they're afraid of losing you.Second Chances is a powerful coming-of-age story about grief, chosen family, and the quiet courage it takes to stay. Rich with restraint, tenderness, and hard-won trust, Rose GoodKnight tells a deeply human story of belonging-not found in perfection, but built through persistence, patience, and the belief that sometimes, staying is the bravest choice of all. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
