Product Description
God's Time is the Right Time. Marc Thompson is on top of the world-a newlywed with a beautiful wife, the owner of a thriving Boston sports advertising agency, and a century-old home they're renovating in the suburbs. Then the unthinkable happens. Two months after the wedding, Marc sits in a hospital emergency waiting room after Natalie suffers a horrible fall. One shock follows another. Not only does his wife remember nothing of their life together, but now he has a personal timeline to reconnect with her-seven months. Marc's gold wedding band mocks him, a glaring reminder of a promise broken by a rotting basement stair and his own negligence. His renowned psychologist advises him to court his wife again-a daunting task the first time around. Then Marc's pastor suggests he call Sam and Lexa Lewis of TeamWork Missions, a ministry dear to Natalie's heart. Determined to help her reclaim her life, the young groom makes great strides until a ghost from the past surfaces, opening fresh wounds and threatening to destroy it all. With Natalie's trust shattered and Marc's faith wavering, they head to Milestone Ranch outside Helena, Montana, with TeamWork for a two-week work camp. But instead of romancing his wife in the freezing November temperatures with warm fires and shared sweet moments, he's out in the cold and back at square one. Even if Natalie recovers her lost memories, will she forgive him? If not, can Marc come to terms with his deepest fear-the failure of his marriage? You'll root for Marc and Natalie as they fight against the odds and discover that surrendering all at the throne of grace doesn't mean failure. It's simply called faith. And it might be the only way to finding their way back to one another . . . the second time around. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Second Time Around is JoAnn Durgin's second published novel, the follow-up to the popular Awakening featuring the adventures of Sam Lewis and Lexa Clarke and the lively TeamWork crew.

Loved it!, Dec 17 2011
By Bsharpton - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Second Time Around (The Lewis Legacy, Book 2) (Paperback)
Second Time Around's storyline has a great mixture of forgiveness, persistence, friendship, hope, and most of all love. Mrs. Durgin did a great job demonstrating that to have a true romance between a man and a woman, God must be in COMPLETE control. This book reminded me that God uses things that happen in our life that we view as "bad" to bring us to a place that we will be more open to hearing His voice. You will not regret purchasing this book, in fact, you'll be anxiously awaiting the next one! If you haven't read Mrs. Durgin's Awakening which is the first book in this series, you should seriously consider making that purchase as well.

Another wonderful novel from an amazing author!, Nov 27 2011
By Heather - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Second Time Around (The Lewis Legacy, Book 2) (Paperback)
After loving her first book "Awakening," I could not wait to read her second book, "Second Time Around." Ms Durgin is a master of characters feel so real, you would expect to run into them on the street. I am thankful for her courage to tackle tough issues without ever crossing the line. Her books are full of emotion, romance, and of course, humor! I cannot wait for the next book!

Sweeter the Second Time Around-Kindle, Nov 14 2011
By Jude Urbanski - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Second Time Around (The Lewis Legacy, Book 2) (Paperback)
JoAnn Durgin treats readers to another romance-filled adventure involving the Team Work Crew first met in her novel, Awakening. Second Time Around, book two in the Lewis Legacy Series, introduces Marc and Natalie Thompson, newlyweds immediately plunged into a medical crisis leaving Natalie with little memory of Marc as her handsome, wedded husband.This book held particular interest for me since my daughter had suffered injury from an automobile accident and did not recognize her husband either for many months. As can be imagined, such a scenario creates multiple challenges. Issues of faith and trust further complicated these challenges for Marc and Natalie until they each let God work His miracles.
"God will take care of your wife" the old man in the Emergency Room waiting area told Marc, but believing this proves daunting for hard-driving Marc. Even though the hurdles are many, Marc is nevertheless passionate about maintaining his marriage, regaining his wife's love and making good his second chance. They both learn God is faithful even to those of little faith.
This writer has crafted a well-written Christian romance that will absolutely keep you turning the pages! I look forward to the next book in this exciting series.
