It was like in the movies: their eyes met from across the room and they fell in love.
Nine years later, Chess and André are the envy of all their friends.
But this is real life….and things are never what they seem.

Still waters run deep—the better to hide Chess’s ugly past. He’s worked hard to bury the troubled teen he once was and is living a life he never imagined possible. André’s love is a gift that makes him believe in second chances, and Chess is grateful for it every day. The only thing he wants is what André finds impossible to give: his time. Six months apart might be the breaking point, even for Chess.

One horrible night changed André’s life forever. Formerly a party boy of the Hamptons social scene, André buries himself in work for years until he meets Chess and learns to enjoy the simple things. He’s tired of being away from home all the time and ready to step down from his role as CEO of the family business, no matter how they try and pull him back in. But old habits die hard…and so do memories.

Photos from the past and present surface, shocking Chess and André out of their carefully constructed dream life. They are forced to face the unthinkable: the love they thought would last a lifetime may be on the brink of falling apart. Secrets are exposed, opening a Pandora’s box both men hoped would stay locked forever. Now Chess and André face the hardest question: do you ever really know the person you’re living with?

Praise for the novel:
“Footsteps of the Past was a heartbreaking yet a heartwarming story about true love, and the best friendship in the world” ~ Lelyana, Goodreads reviewer

“A beautifully written book with heartbreak, past hurts, lots of love and family with or without your blood.” ~ Tracy, Goodreads reviewer

“Felice Stevens books are always fantastic, but this one was refreshingly different since we don’t usually get books about an already established couple. The way it was written, with just the right amount of flashbacks and information about their pasts, was incredibly well done.” ~ Lisa, Goodreads reviewer

“A fantastic addition to the series, this book focuses on truth and honesty, sharing the highs and the lows. I loved every word…” ~Merrisa, Archaeolibrarian – I Dig Good Books! book blog

“…a beautiful, emotional slow burn that gave me all the feels and I connected immediately with the characters and this beautful, beautiful story.” ~Konny, Goodreads reviewer

“Felice has done it again…a masterful combination of raw emotions and love.” ~Audrey, Goodreads reviewer

“…their story is ultimately a beautiful testament to unconditional love. This one has my highest recommendation.”~ Randall, Goodreads reviewer

“This book does have angst, but oh was it worth it. Love that this story is about a couple who has been with each other for years…I absolutely adored this story – Chess and Andre have each other’s hearts and mine too!” ~ Nicole, Goodreads reviewer

Second Chances Series

Felice Stevens has always been a romantic at heart. She believes that while life is tough, there is always a happy ending just around the corner. Her characters have to work for it, however. Like life in NYC, nothing comes easy, and that includes love.

She lives in New York City and has way too much black in her wardrobe yet can’t stop buying “just one more pair” of black pants. Felice is a happily addicted Bravo and Say Yes to the Dress addict and proud of it. And let’s not get started on House Hunters. Her dream day starts out with iced coffee and ends with Prosecco, because…why shouldn’t it? You can find her procrastinating on FB in her reader group, Felice’s Breakfast Club.
