Finding my Heart

Drew Clark is a former Marine Gunnery Sergeant and martial arts master and instructor. She’s hiding secrets and is suffering from PTSD. Sean is a psychiatrist and senior student at the dojo. Her twin sister, Susan, and she live together and hide their own secrets. Susan’s partner is Sean’s business partner. Their lives are turned upside down by the turmoil they face. A slow real of what they need to heal themselves and each other. Marvelous narration.

Warrior is a heart touching story of love, with a vet.

Drew was a marine who taught self defense in the core, she also carried a dark secret that prevented her from finding love. Sean is a young therapist by day, but by night all her efforts have going to get her black belt, and now she was on the last steps to making it. Strangely on first glance they are drawn together.

Loved this book.

Great romance and story telling. Love Radclyffe I'm always taken away. Thank you for writing this book.

Second time reading, so here's a new review

The first time i listened to this book honestly i wasn't impressed. The storyline for me was hard to follow with the narrator. So whats different now, I choose to listen to the words more carefully. Drew is ex military and has suffered great loss. Susan and Shawn are twins with hidden issues themself. the backgrounds of these ladies are not exposed right away, but are casually brought out in conversations. for some this would be frustration. However, i undersrand this is more about Drew and Shawn finding eachother dispite their past.
Susan's brief relaps is what finally pushes them together, and from their they can no longer hide their feelings
I really enjoyed this book this time around. I felt sad and heartbreak, I felt passion and chemistry between the two main characters as if i was right there witnessing them interact personally. This book was well written full of love.
So this is one of those, dont judge right away , truly take the time to listen this wonderful love story.

Great story

Bad narration. After reading a few negative reviews about performance, I waited until this one was on sale before getting it. I’m a martial arts enthusiast, so I’d hoped that would balance it out for me. I would’ve thought the narration was AI if it weren’t 9 yrs old - there’s not even any excitement or emotion during sparring or love scenes. Be warned that the sound drops really low during some chapters. And sorry my TKD ladies, some of the commands are mispronounced. The story is great, however. And spice is 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
