Show Me a Second Chance: Small-Town Single-Father Cowboy Romance (Cowboy Crossing Romances Book 2) by Alexa Verde!
A single-dad cowboy, a woman with a secret who left him, and a second chance at love neither of them expects… A sweet, clean, wholesome romance with a happily-ever-after!
Frightened by a possible stalker, a big-city marketing manager flees to her uncle’s B & B in the small town where she once felt safe. A place where neighbors know each other and where she fell in love with a hometown hero over two decades ago. Only now, that handsome cowboy is a large ranch owner with a little daughter and soul-deep scars left by his alcoholic ex-wife. Kimberly Byrd made mistakes that will haunt her for the rest of her life. Can she allow herself to love and be loved again?
Broken heart or not, Mac Clark can’t leave a woman in danger. Old feelings rekindle, but he has a precious daughter to think about now. As he discovers shocking secrets in Kimberly’s life, can he hope that he or his child wouldn’t get hurt for the second time?
Welcome to Cowboy Crossing, a small town in the Show Me State where swoon-worthy single dad cowboys fall for strong-willed forty-something women, though sometimes those rugged handsome men might need a nudge—or a push.
Some Amazon reviews:
Amazing Story
This Is such a wonderful story. The trials Kimberly had to face with her addiction was just heartbreaking. I loved the love that father and daughter shared and that little girl had such a difficult time in her short little life. It was heart wrenching. They all had difficulties that they had to overcome and they did for with God all things are possible. This is such a great series. I would highly recommend this book.

Soundsike a great book. I escaped a 13 year abusive mariage. Now on my 3rd marige God has given me a good guy who treats me right. He works through problems with me. God is good. Your book sounds very good
Thank you for your kind words, Rory! And so sorry to hear about what you went through. I am glad God gave you a good husband. Praying for you!
Wow, Rory, I am so glad you are doing well now!!
I have needed several 1st, 2nd, 3rd…chances in my lifetime. I tend to always give chances, although there have been a few that were a bit harder to give. I believe in love and kindness wholeheartedly.
Sherry, you deserve thousands, no, millions of chances! You’re so sweet and kind-hearted!
Amen, Sherry! I am right there with you ❤️
God is always willing to give us another chance. He is always trying to draw us closer to Himself. That’s why He sent us Jesus. There are times we may not feel like following or drawing near due to our life circumstances. But He is always there for us to talk to and if we listen to what is within us, we will figure life out or gain insight as to our next step. God puts us into life with others and we need to trust Him through it all and be strong and bold in our faith of what He makes possible.
Praise God and amen, Cindy!
Amen! So true and so beautifully said!
There are some people I’ve given way over 2 chances, and each time they keep doing the same things. I’m so glad God is patient with us! I try to do the same, though I feel sometimes we just have to let it go, especially when they just keep hurting us.
Yes, Trudy, sometimes it’s just so hard!😔
Trudy, I met some people like that, too. Sadly, there are folks who take advantage of others’ kindness.
I’ve been given several second chances. I think God is always ready to help us, if we let him. I tend to give people second chances. Sometimes it’s hard, but if Gof forgives me I need to forgive others.
Amen!!
Mary, very well said and so true!
Such a wonderful story <3
To answer your question:
Matthew 18:21-22
21 Then Peter came up and said to him, “Lord, how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?” 22 Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you seven times, but seventy-seven times.
Sometimes it's so hard to do, right?
Yes, Natalya, it is hard to keep turning the other cheek though 🥺
Yes, Natalya, super hard! Thank you for the great answer!
As usual, great book. Never has Alexa let me down. All of her books are fun, interesting, hear-felt, and CLEAN!!!! Thank you so much for your books, Alexa!!!
DO true, Betsy!
Betsy, thank you very much for your kind words! Sooo blessed to have readers like you!
I love this book and this whole series. If no one gave second chances I don’t know where I would be right now. Thank you God for giving me multiple chances. I love second chance romances because I am on my second chance and couldn’t be happier. Thank you Alexa for keeping these stories real.
PTL, Terry, you are such a blessing!
Terry, you’re such a blessing indeed!
I love your books and that they are christian based. I definitely believe in second chances and more.
Thank you, Mary! Completely agree with you!!
Thank you so much, Mary Jane!
Mary Jane, thank you so much for all your support! Thrilled to hear you love my books!
I have been given second chances and I try to give the same grace to others.
That’s a wonderful and kind way to live!
We all need as many chances as we can get and offer. God does not limit us to one chance but offers His grace and mercy every time we need it. For me, that is quite often!
Second chances are important, as long as it is not a bad habit.
So true! Some people can abuse all the many chances they are given. Thank you for stopping by!
