Second Chances...by
Contemporary Romance Novel Author Cindy Troy
Second Chances tells the story of a true love lost to the ravages
of cancer, leaving 35-year old Chase McCormick alone to care for
his four-year old daughter. He seeks help from newly divorced and
newly independent Anna Devereaux who sees this as an opportunity
to escape her own childhood nightmares and perhaps become part of
a real and loving family. Anna's troubles date back to her own
mother's murder when Anna was just a child. Now, twenty-five years
later, Anna herself is the target and she and Chase work together
to keep her safe as well as solve the mystery behind who is trying
to kill her. Their investigation takes them back a quarter of a
century, and nothing can prepare them for the links that they
discover between their families. And the links all lead to murder.
Both Chase and Anna must make a decision of whether or not the
danger is worth seizing this second chance at love.
While copies of the book show a dedication to my
husband-- which is absolutely deserved -- it also
needs a dedication to my dear dear friend, Holly. Holly
brought me my first romance novel and first came up with
the silly notion that a couple of full-time English
teachers, wives, and mothers could actually write a book.
Much of the storyline behind Second Chances can be
credited to her. I hope you enjoy my best selling
contemporary romance novels now available at
Barnes and Noble and
Powell's Books.

Contemporary Romance...
Contemporary romance, which is set after World War II,
is often what people mean when they refer to a romance
novel. The largest of the romance novel subgenres,
contemporary romance novels are set in the time in which
they were written and usually reflect the mores of that
time. Heroines in the contemporary romances written prior
to 1970 usually quit working when they married or had
children, while those novels written after 1970 usually
have, and keep, a career. As contemporary romance novels
have grown to contain more complex plotting and more
realistic characters, the line between this subgenre and
the genre of women's fiction has blurred.
Over half of the romantic fiction published in the United
States in 2004 (1468 out of 2,285 books) were contemporary
romance novels. (Wikipedia)

Romance
literature is my love - no pun intended. I've been an avid reader
for as long as I can remember and have been writing for several
years. As a secondary and collegiate English teacher, I appreciate
almost any type of writing, but this genre is my favorite, and I'm
honored to have the opportunity to contribute to it.
I have been an English teacher since 1995 and cannot imagine myself
doing anything else -- unless, of course, it's writing novels all
day.
I spent the first 33 years of my life in Arizona, but recently made
a leap of faith as my husband, daughters, and I packed up everything
and left our family and friends behind to move to northwestern
Kentucky. We have certainly been blessed in that decision as we have
found a new and loving community in which to raise our two beautiful
girls.
Another leap of faith encouraged me to begin my own editing business
www.editedwrite.com
where I am able to put my years of proofreading and editing
experience in the classroom into a new and profitable environment.
While teaching is my career, I certainly enjoy writing in every
spare moment I can find. And I hope you enjoy reading what I have
written.
Ideas for new books are forming every day. In fact, my second novel
is well under way.
