It's trope time, and today we're talking about Second Chance Romance! Join us as we share some of our favorite books and movies that showcase the trope, tackle heavy issues like Megan's Weighted Vest, and put the call out to K-Dramaland for more contemporary second chance romances...with bodyguards and idols.
