The story is a three-act structure, with each sister getting her moment to shine. They have to come back to their childhood home and live together for one year. Their mother, in her infinite wisdom, crafted her will so the sisters would have to confront their self-imposed demons in order to gain control of the family fortune. It’s also a tale about three sisters, whose childish behavior during a family crisis twenty years prior had serious ramifications on where their lives are today. In my book, Blame It On The Brontes, there’s a lot of trouble in the Bronson household, and it’s not just between the women and their men. If you made the wrong choice with a lover from long ago and have always regretted it, or if someone in your past did you wrong and put you off from trying a new relationship, second chance romances are tailor-made for you. This isn’t their first rodeo, and they have lived long enough to have some flubs and skeletons in their closets. The heroes and heroines are usually a bit older than standard fare romances. That’s what second chance romances are all about. When you were a kid and something didn’t go as planned, wasn’t it great to be able to yell “Do Over” and fix whatever the problem had been? If only the big flubs in life were so simple to fix. Today, we have Becky Lower talking about “Do Overs” and her latest book, Blame It on the Brontes.
