Resumen del Editor

Dr. Maximillian Ramsey has a problem....

I’m a jerk. Everyone I know or have ever worked with agrees. “Misanthropic asshole” is the term I hear most often.

I don’t care what other people think, as long as they leave me alone to focus on my research on soil microbiology. Plus, I walk with a cane thanks to a childhood accident. I have scars on my face. And if that isn’t enough to scare people off, my bad attitude and general grumpiness seal the deal. Which is just the way I like it.

Except, I’ve been short listed for one of the most prestigious academic fellowships around. To win it, I’ll have to give a series of speeches. On a stage. With an audience. While being filmed.

Yeah. None of that is going to happen.

Unfortunately, my boss has a plan. He brings in one of the communications lecturers to give me a “make over,” help me write the speeches, and manage my social media.

But the last thing I need is some nosy, bossy, gorgeous woman meddling in my life.

And Holly is the solution....

I’m a mere communications lecturer at a prestigious research university. I’m used to being outclassed and under-educated compared to the PhDs who surround me.

But I’m good at what I do. Brilliant, actually.

When Max’s boss (who happens to be my ex-husband) begs me to help transform this beast of a man into someone worthy of the fellowship, I have my work cut out for me.

It’ll take a lot of badgering, blatant manipulation, and some outright thievery to get Max to cooperate. All of which I handle with the enough professionalism and restraint that should earn me a fancy grant.

What I can’t handle is how unexpectedly attractive I find the stubborn and brilliant man.

This is a battle of wills and wits, and neither is prepared to admit defeat …

Heart Smart is a full-length contemporary romance and can be listened to as a stand-alone. Book 2 in the Work for It series, Educated Romance World, Penny Reid Book Universe.

A Growly Sweet Romance!

I loved Heart Smart!!! This audiobook made me cry, laugh, and swoon! Emma Lee Jayne is a new-to-me author and I absolutely adore her writing. It’s witty, smart, and slow-burn steamy!

Connor Crais and Natalie Duke gave perfect performances as Max & Holly! I love how they tackled these complex characters! These two are always auto-click narrators for me. This collaboration was so seamless. They were perfectly paired for a delightful listen!!

Beauty and the Beast

Very similar to the age old romance. I really like it. Love the narrators, love the humor.

short and sweet

This was a sweet story with likable characters and a plausible story line. I enjoyed it.

Enjoyed

Sometimes a simple none complicated and engaging story is all you need. This hit all the butterfly check boxes for me. Narration was great as always! Natalie just makes the sass come across in the best of ways. Conner, well he is just an auto download for me!

a pure delight

Max and Holly are both highly skilled in their respective fields, and are each drawn to the other from their first meeting – while each is convinced the feelings could not be reciprocated. Heart Smart is a delightful romance / comedy / sexual romp. I read Heart Smart in ink print before listening to the audiobook; Natalie Duke and Connor Crais capture Holly and Max perfectly.

it was great but.......

I thought the story was great but certain parts didn't sound romantic, I hated how he kept saying my cock and dick which by the way he mentioned wayyyyyyy too many times. The overall story was pretty cute, not porny which is a quality I like. But the racy parts could've been handled a little better. I do recommend reading it.

Love!

Love this story! It is about two imperfect people leading normal lives, albeit with minor social challenges. I enjoyed the character development and the excellent description of how people on the spectrum think and relate to the world. This is a feel-good story that makes you smile.

enjoyed

came in reading this book soley based on being part of the smartypants romance series and was not disappointed at all. it was a fun story and the narration was great too.

Love it!!

This book is smart, witty and overall a cute romantic comedy. It gives me an Erin Mallon/Kayley Loring vibe. The banter is hilarious between Holly and Max, both are soo different but complement each other. Emma is anew author for me but I hope we'll get more books from her. Natalie narration was spot on and she was perfect as Holly. Connor was superb as always plus who doesn't looove growly Connor!? 😉

Ready for more!!!

First time listening to a book by this author & she is now one of my favorites!
This book is everything I love; hilarious, witty, fast-paced dialogue (imagine Lorelei Gilmore), with a strong, intelligent, and quirky hero & heroine.
If possible, I would have given this book 10 Stars!
Please produce more audiobooks from this Author!!!!
