Summary

An 85-year-old woman jumps from a twentieth-floor window — and wakes up in 1980, thirty years old, with her newborn son in her arms. Given a second chance, June knows exactly what went wrong: a husband who controlled every dollar, a son who grew up to abandon her, and two daughters she failed to protect. This time, she's building her own empire. From a folding table at a farmers market to a regional food brand, from a silenced wife to a woman who answers to no one — Second Life is a story about money, revenge, and the quiet violence of starting over.

    She was eighty-five when she jumped. She woke up thirty, in 1980, holding a son she'd already raised once. Now June has one goal: seize control of the money before her husband Walter locks her out for another forty years. But Walter has never met this version of his wife — the one who isn't afraid to shatter a glass and say: whoever backs out is a coward.
