Im not sure this is the one I read because I don't remember it droning on this much! Chapter 8 and no progress between Kagome and Sesshomaru except one meeting. There just a bunch of unnecessary fillers. Like who cares that she ordered soda? Could have said she ordered a drink and moved on, not go into the whole reason why. Then there's a bunch of side quest like a new victim and songs details that make her think of Sesshomaru in-between?! Huh? Sigh now I know why I didn't add this to my favs. I know I've def come across this one but I think the one I liked was another story where he was a dog. But I definitely remember the first few chapter so I definitely read this before. The pacing was so good at first though. At this point I'm practically skipping chapters!????

I really didn't like what Sesshomaru did the Kikyo she deserved better in the story! I love that she at least got revenge and things are currently working the way the way she intended. Sesshomaru has been learning some hard lesson. Even as sad as Kikyo's life ended up being I'm glad Kagome is now in the picture and the story is progressing nicely! PROTECT HER!! YASSSS

I've read this story before! I'm glad I don't remember everything that happened so that I can enjoy it once more! Great pacing btw! We don't get that in some of these newer stories on this site. I'm sp excited to read this again!

Af5er a long story you give a very short ending.  That's the only complaint.  The end sucks¡!!!!!!

i bow to you, oh great writer of Sess/Kag fan fiction. this was the best story and it didn't even seem like it was beauty and the beast until it got to the end of the story. i have put you in my faves author here and on FanFiction.net. i love your stories. they are well thought out, with no grammers at all. you must thank the beta you used for a job well done in that department. i found some of your stories in the Spark section on this site. i hope you get around to finishing the ones that are incomplete. keep up the GREAT writing and i WILL be looking for more of your work. c'ya'

It's been several years since I first read this fanfic and it is still one of my favorites. Just wanted to thank you for the effort you spent writing it. 

Yay that was magnificent. Keep up the good work.

A little confusing towards the end but I enjoyed the story over all. Thank you!

hello, I have just fiished reading second chance and I am confused with the ending. Did Sessshoumaru die at the end and watch over kagome or did he live because of the golden light? The last 2 or 3 chapters just really confused me....  thanks for reading.

I read this story a while ago, and reading it again, I am still enthralled with it.

Oh my god that was so amazing. I spent the entire day reading that AMAZING fic. It in 6AM now and I'm so going to regret staying up but I coulgnt help it. I hope this has won awards because you are truly great at what you do. The ending was perfect, I loved how everything felt so real and came together. I love their relationship, I love her and shippo. Everything was perfect. Thank you so much for writing this.

I loved this story, seeing as how beauty and the beast is by far my favorite disney movie lol, for a while i couldn't access chapter 40 and I freaked out thinking that was the end but I finally got it and i loved the ending, and i'm glad you included rin at least a little.

I think some things were left hanging, like her powers and her singing, but i'm good with it.

Overall good read :) thanks for posting!

Hello there. I've read this story mmore times than I could possibly count. And I want you to know that I was just reading a novel, a published novel that my mom picked up for me at WalMart because she thought I might like it. It's kind of similar in a way to Second Chance, being that it's a romance between a girl and a male who is forced to assume animal form. Except, in the case of this book, he's a tiger, not a dog. In any case, the book is terrible. The entire time I've been forcing myself to read this book, all I've been able to think is "This sucks. Striking Falcon did it so much better than this crap." There you are, your humble fanfic is in reality far better than an actually published novel, in so many ways. You rock. And now, rather than finishing the rest of that crap I was trying to read, I'm going to reread this, which is infinitely better. I bid you adieu. XD

I really like this story. The beginning was great! I was concerned about how you were going to bring in Kagomes Miko powers because she didn't seem to really have them to begin with. I have sympathy with Songo's disease. Because a year after I was married I too came down with diabetes and had a lot of the same feelings and reactions that she had to go through. I was waiting for something of the sort at the end of the story to have some kind of blood shed, gun shot, etc.. I was a little turned off with the whole beauty and the beast ending. I realize the story line kind of followed that way, but not so much that it stood out. Not to be critical, but I think the ending could have gone a bit differently so that is wasn't so Disney. However, I really think this was a really good story and I thank you for the time and effort you put into it so that I could read it. Thank You.

I read this a while ago and just finished re-reading it today. i really must say that Second Chance is, and most likely always will be my favorite sess/kag fanfic. Well done :')

That story was wonderful! it had humor, action, morbidism, cruelity, love and a whole lot more! i loved it!

I love this story. I was kind of hoping for one more lemon but oh well. Anyways I simply loved this story. It was AWESOME. Thanks

oh my kami-sama!!! FANTASTIC JOB!!!
