Some of these I’ve read, others I’ve been wanting to read. They also have different characters and plots, making them stories all their own. Some people claim that tropes make all stories predictable and too similar, which is simply not true! These stories are all second-chance romances, but they’re different romance subgenres (contemporary, western inspiration, romantic suspense), as well as penned by authors with unique styles. As I mentioned last month, these lists aren’t meant to be exhaustive–this is a popular trope–but simply show the variety of stories that can use this device. Here’s a quick reading list if you’d like to explore this trope more. There are some great second-chance romance novels, novellas, and short stories out there, too. Second-chance is one of my favorite romance tropes–I love the awkwardness and emotion that come from reuniting two people who have a past.
