Mary married niggly Nigel on the rebound - and regretted it from the moment she said, 'I do.'

In a last-ditch attempt to resurrect their passion-free marriage, they head to Venice. But when Nigel books the cheapest hotel, unpacks his paisley-pattern pyjamas and spends his days doing a running cost analysis of gondolas and gelato, Mary doubts things will improve.

And she's right. Even the most romantic city in the world can't revive a dead relationship.

Then fate intervenes. Her first love - the one who made her heart race - is staying in the same hotel... with his frosty wife.

Is this Mary's second chance at happiness, or will she be stuck forever with safe but boring Nigel?

If you enjoy women's fiction full of heart and humour - with a dash of 1970s nostalgia and a bite of romantic comedy - you'll love Second Chances in Venice.
