Two decades ago, two strangers make a connection that bonds them for life.
Perfect for fans of second chance romance, This Time Around is the love reunion hopeless romantics have been waiting for.
Dr. Tessa Howard is sick and tired of everythingâher job, her nagging mother, and her boyfriend who wouldnât know commitment if it hit him in the face. The only thing that didnât work her last nerve was her soon-to-be twenty-year-old daughter, Cyrah. Watching her one and only child, her greatest accomplishment, live life out loud was her greatest joy. Tessa didnât know what sheâd do if she didnât have Cyrah, whom she admittedly lived vicariously through. After an epiphany in the middle of the night, Tessa finds herself single and unemployed.
With no job, no man, and no prospects for either, Tessa finally decides to let loose and learns that history does, in fact, repeat itself.

In an effort to make a clean break, he accepts a job at the prestigious Black Elm University, over two thousand miles away from his current residence. With a new job in a new city, Cypress has high hopes that a new woman will soon be added to the equation.
However, maybe this time around, someone new isnât what he needs.
