The Second Chance Cinema

‘Charming and clever … a must read’ EVIE WOODS

The Midnight Library meets Ashley Poston in an emotional, heartwarming debut romantic novel, where an engaged couple stumble upon a magical movie theatre that plays formative memories from their lives, showing secrets they both have been keeping from each other.

What if the love of your life could watch the story of your past?

At the end of a fog-covered alley, glitters a glamorous cinema. It’s nearly impossible to find. When Ellie and her fiancé, Drake, stumble upon it during a late-night walk, they’re shocked to discover what’s playing inside the red-velvet auditorium: their formative memories.

Drake fears what the cinema might reveal, but eventually gives in when Ellie insists they return for more viewings. She’s haunted by a night from her past that she doesn’t fully remember. This is her opportunity to piece the story back together. But as the memories displayed on screen inch closer to the present, they realise they’re both keeping secrets from each other.

With their wedding on the horizon, Ellie and Drake must decide if seeing their pasts changes their plans for a future together.

Filled with warmth, hope, and a dash of magic, The Second Chance Cinema is both an enchanting escape and a thought-provoking examination of how our memories shape who we are.
