Second Chances - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

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.
