Review: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 

A small town second chance romance novella featuring an overachieving wedding planner and a semi-grumpy rancher. 

This is my first book I have read by Lyons and I found it a pleasant read perfect for the winter holidays. I appreciated both Chloe and Dylan as characters; their backstory was interesting and their chemistry felt organic. The romance was on fast forward because the novella is so short, but they have a cute, clean romance that I totally approve of going on. 

I think my favorite part of this novella is the fact that it takes place in a small town in Colorado. Everyone knows everyone and it felt super homey no matter where the characters went. It made the end scene work, despite the low odds of something like that ever happening. Despite it being unlikely, it was a perfect fairy tale moment that works well in a romance book. 

This novella does have some major flaws though besides the rapid fire pacing of the romance (it is literally the exact opposite of a slow burn). My other biggest concern is the lack of detail. There are some really cute moments that are totally fleshed out, but so many others that are just mentioned in passing. I think this novella could have benefited a ton even from an extra twenty to fifty pages just to give a little more content in the story. 

Overall, "Chloe's Second Chance" was a super quick read that is perfect for wintertime. I love the fact that Chloe is a wedding planner and that she is working to put on a grand wedding in her hometown despite her sudden disappearance ten years ago. A fun and sweet story that read like a Hallmark movie. I would recommend this one if one wants to read a cozy, small town romance that centers entirely around weddings.
