On a quiet stretch of ocean, where the past feels closer than the shore left behind, three lives begin to shift. Tides of Second Chances is a moving collection of late-life love stories set aboard a cruise where chance encounters reopen old wounds—and long-guarded hearts. Strangers become something more, and the weight of “what if” gives way to the fragile hope of “what now.” With each passing day at sea, these characters discover that it’s never too late to risk love again—and that some journeys are meant to lead us back to ourselves.

She lives with her husband, a very opinionated cat, and more mystery novels than her bookshelves can comfortably hold. The Okafor Cruise Mysteries are her debut series.View all by Blythe Carmichael
