About this ebook

Can one moment change your life forever?

For Eva Carmichael, it’s the second she lays eyes on Oak Harbor’s troubled bad boy, Finn McKay. He’s bold and reckless, and leaves a trail of broken hearts in his wake. She should stay away, but she soon discovers they have more in common than she ever dreamed. They’re both living with painful secrets, and a true self they keep hidden, not letting anyone in – until she takes a leap and risks it all…

Finn knows Eva is too good to be true. He’s been counting down to the day he can turn his back on Oak Harbor for good, and finally escape all the dark, painful shadows of his past. But this girl is impossible to ignore. Her smile makes him forget himself, and just one kiss could redeem it all. He’s determined not to fall, but then one night changes everything…

Two unlikely hearts. One intoxicating romance. This epic love story is only just beginning.

** Heartbeats is a novella story set before the events of Heartbreaker. Both books are written as stand-alone stories, so you can enjoy them in whichever order you like. **

I only read the first chapter of this novella. I'm not crazy about the fact that the story is told as a recollection. I suppose this is simply the author's style; The Promise is also told as a recollection. A quote from Heartbeats: "Looking back now, I wonder, if I'd seen that moment for what everything it was (...)".

I was given a courtesy copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. Heartbeats is the prequel to Heartbreaker and both can be read as stand-alones. From the very first page, Melody Grace grabs you and keeps you captivated until the very end. She takes you on an emotional roller coaster ride that has you hanging on tight.

Melody Grace has a way with making you feel the characters in her books. In Heartbeats she went back and gave you the beginning of Eva and Finn's story. She gives you the feel of that 1st meeting of 2 characters who've watched each other from afar, never dreaming of being able to be that "one" for each other, each helping the other with to break out of their comfort zone. If you've already read Heartbreaker, you won't want to miss this glimpse into the beginning of their love story. If you have yet to read Heartbreaker, do yourself a favor and get it now so you don't have to wait one second to continue on with Eva & Finn, because you definitely will want more of Eva & Finn. Another wonderful read from Melody Grace where you'll want more and more of Eva & Finn.
