Second Chance: A Murder Mystery (The Chance Series) by C. Baldwin

The second novel in the The Chance Series opens with Hanna and Chance celebrating their engagement. Little do they know that this night and nature will change their lives forever. Defense attorney Chance Bryant and his fiancée, Hanna Rockwell, a retired crime reporter turned private investigator, should have been celebrating their engagement; instead, they found themselves standing in the wreckage of nature’s wrath, mourning a friend taken too soon. As the debris cleared, a suffocating fog of suspicion settled over their tight-knit circle. The ensuing investigation quickly devolves into a bitter battlefield, pitting Robert, a charismatic and widely respected divorce attorney, directly against the grieving husband of the woman killed. As Hanna digs into the ashes and Chance parses the legal fallout, they unearth a trail of long-buried indiscretions that point to a terrifying possibility: the tragedy might not have been purely accidental. With every secret dragged into the light, the couple is forced to confront a chilling question—how well do you truly know the people you hold closest?
