"Second Chances may be an issue-laden novel, but it weaves these issues seamlessly into the book by virtue of the strength of Cole's characters. This doesn't read like a magazine article masquerading as a novel, it's a fully-realized work of fiction through and through, which is a significant accomplishment. The novel manages to be both entertaining and eye-opening. It will make you feel more socially aware and connected by book's end." - Self-Publishing Review "Second Chances leads the readers on a roller coaster of emotions while simultaneously reflecting on problems that face today's society" - IndieReader "It makes you dream of a better world for us all; one where we are not defined by race or gender, but rather by our skills and capabilities.
