It’s been three decades since he left her alone and heartbroken. She wants to avoid him, but he wants answers, and their cruise doesn’t end for nineteen days.

After years of hard work and being the family caregiver, Maria, 52, has a life she loves, cruising around the world and living every day in the present.

Until now.

Now her plans are falling apart, and her past is coming out of the shadows.

— Her family wants her home to pick up life where she left off.

— Her travel companion wants to go solo

— And Nathan, a man she loved long ago, is on the ship, forcing her to re-examine their shared history — a history she has tried for decades to forget.

But her heart still remembers.

Nathan can’t believe she’s here. Maria. The woman who broke his heart when she married another man without telling him why. Now he wants answers.

But the only question that seems to matter is, will she give him another chance?

Can Nathan and Maria heal their differences and forgive old hurts? Or will they both sail off in different directions?

If you enjoy a story of friendship, love, and second chances in the second half of life, this one may be for you.

I thought this book was going in a different direction and was so grateful I kept reading. Losing love and finding it again in the last place you expect. I found this story so sweet.

I enjoyed this later-in-life second chance romance with interesting characters, lots of family drama, friendship and a cruise ship setting. This is the first book I have read by Jeanine Lauren but I hope to read more by this talented author. If you enjoy second chance romance, don't miss Repositioning - Lost Love Found. I received an advance reader copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving my review.

Teenage lovers separated for years, each blaming the other for the breakup. Years later, they happen to meet on a cruise. They have to open their minds and communications to understand what happened, and why, and where to go from here.
This was a really enjoyable book and the couple has a lot of familial conflicts they needed to face. Even though it sounds like a "heavy" story, it was enjoyable. I got to travel part of the world without leaving my seat!
I was provided a copy of the book and this review is my honest review.

Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2023

Family is complicated. And, it seems, the older you get, the more baggage your family seems to accumulate. The flip side of that, is that, hopefully, you can also accumulate some wisdom to deal with, or even resolve some of that baggage.

Repositioning is just that, a book dealing with one couple that comes together in middle age, and finally decides to deal with some of that baggage, with each other and with extended family.

Nathan & Maria were very young when they met and fell in love. Too young, too inexperienced to deal with the issues that separated them. Now, years later, they meet again, quite accidentally. They both draw on enough wisdom AND courage to talk out some of those issues. Find some resolution, some peace. Each is at a critical crossroad in their life. The question becomes, will they choose the road going forward, together?

Jeanine Lauren is a new author for me. The story is soft, gentle; thoughtful, with no over-the-top drama or conflict, even though the issues were huge. I felt I could sit with a cup of tea, and listen to a close friend open their heart to share their thoughts. That’s not easy to write, but Ms Lauren did it. I cared about the characters. As a side note, editing was good, so that I wasn’t pulled out of the story. I will read Ms Lauren again.

Second. Chance Romance

Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2023

Would you consider living on a cruise ship?

Misunderstandings + second chance romance + cruising.

After the death of her husband, fifty-two year old Maria has created the carefree life she loves living aboard cruise ships and traveling the world. Her sister and her young adult children would like her to return home but she is conflicted. As her current cruise gets underway, she is horrified to spot her old high school boyfriend, Nathan, among the guests. Suddenly, her life becomes complicated as she initially tries to avoid him and when that fails, she's faced with having an uncomfortable and potentially confrontive conversation. As misunderstandings and old hurts are addressed, Maria and Nathan are faced with an inevitable attraction and the possibility of a second chance romance.

Can they repair their relationship? What are the risks? How will their families react?

Amid the twists and turns, a lovely story emerges. Thoughtful themes include second chance romance, new found family, honesty and trust, reconciliation, sibling dynamics, heartwarming romance, loss and heartbreak, and complicated family drama.

I'm enthusiastically recommending Repositioning for fans of light women's fiction, for those who love more mature characters, and for readers who appreciate closed door romance and no profanity. It's engaging and heartfelt.

Thanks @BookSirens and the author for a complimentary eARC upon my request. All opinions are my own.

Marie Phillips had been spending the last three years on cruises since her husband Evan had passed away. She had met Belle on one of the cruise ships and they had become close friends. But she was looking forward to her sister Cynthia to join her on this cruise. Cynthia didn’t show up and when Marie called she said Gerrard her husband wasn’t doing well. Marie was flabbergasted that Cynthia didn’t let her know sooner. Cynthia wasn’t there for Marie when her husband had gotten ill so should she help her sister. But then Marie saw Nathan from a distance on the ship and she couldn’t believe he was on this ship. They had been in love during their high school years and suddenly he broke off the relationship.

Marie’s family wants her to comeback home to Sunshine Bay and ironically Nathan’s family wants him back home too but can he leave his life of world photographer?

Can an old love become a new love?

Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2023

Not your typical love story … and I liked it a lot! This is boy meets girl, fall in love and through a series of misunderstandings, they fall apart. Fast forward more than 30 years and boy finds girl again. A lifetime has passed in that time. But can they work through old hurts and the new realities of their lives and find their way back to each other.

Jeanine Lauren has created wonderful characters and set them in real mixed up relationships like today’s modern families. And while there is some sadness, there is far more funny and sweet times… much like life itself.

This story is very heartwarming and readers of all ages would enjoy it.
