Resumen del Editor

With madness comes truth...with truth comes sorrow.

Ellie Whitaker thought she had a clear path ahead of her; she would sell her bar, return to school, and enjoy a change of scenery, but one peculiar event in the night sky is about to change everything, not only for her, but for everyone in Saint's Grove.

Bryan Nichols has always struggled with his curse. Life as a werewolf is anything but easy, but when you have an overbearing father, life can be even more difficult. After his return from college, Bryan distances himself from the pack and finds solace in an unlikely place with a woman who has no idea how smitten he is with her.

When the most spectacular lunar eclipse shrouds the alignment of six planets, portals open to varying dimensions, unleashing creatures from other realms. Soon, chaos erupts, bringing death and destruction with it. Along with those horrifying events comes significant changes to Ellie's body, revealing that she's not entirely human. She has no idea who she is nor where she belongs, and she only has seven days to find answers that may undoubtedly change her future. The choices that present themselves will not be as easy as she first thought. She will need to decide between the man who saved her and the world that would worship her.

A captivating tale with memorable characters

My first read/listen from author Miranda Hardy. The author has woven a captivating fantasy tale with memorable characters. The narrator does an excellent job with voice inflections, adding to an already good read/listen. Well worth the 5+ hours it took to listen to the book.

New Worlds

Engaging storyline although the characters are relatively two dimensional. The narrator, though competent, did not differentiate the various character's voices sufficiently. Still enjoyable!

Sweet Story

I didn't read book one, but I wasn't lost picking this up. This is a very sweet urban fantasy that is very pro family, and has some good messages people should take to heart about co-existing. Very light and enjoyable.

Miranda Hardy wrote an awesome, fast paced and entertaining story, an excellent audiobook. This is my first but not my last book of hers.

Danielle Marcel Bond made this book an honour to listen to.
This is a very sweet urban fantasy that is very pro family, and has good lessons.

Book 2

HEARTS ALIGNING is a story involving bar owner Ellie Whitaker, and werewolf shifter Bryan Nichols. A lunar eclipse preempts worm hole openings allowing aliens to depart and come through. Truths are revealed and histories unearthed that lead to personal discoveries and a family reunion for Ellie.
The story's premise is entertaining and you'll either love or hate the characters. I wanted to punch the main villain once or twice on Ellie's behalf. The romance is a little underwhelming; I didn’t feel the connection between our leading couple. Overall a good lite fantasy story. The narrator did a good job providing different voices for the characters.

Excellent, fast paced story

This is an awesome, fast paced and entertaining story, an excellent audiobook.
As the town of Saint’s Grove celebrate the alignment of six planets, a night under the stars, Ellie Whitaker is packing up her family’s bar. Five years after her grandfather’s death Ellie has fulfilled her commitment and is ready to move onto the next phase of her life.
Bryan Nichols returned from school a few months ago; he is no longer the happy carefree boy Ellie remembers. Each night he comes into her bar Ellie notices him alone staring out the window, estranged from his family and friends.
The night under the stars quickly turns into a night of destruction. The aligning planets open portals into other worlds allowing dangerous creatures come through. To keep Ellie safe, Bryan reveals himself as a werewolf and protects her from creatures attacking. The planet alignment causes a physical change in Ellie where she discovers she is an unknown creature herself.
To help Ellie learn about where she came from, Ellie and Bryan trek into the woods to find Ellie’s mother, a woman they thought was long dead. This is a wonderful story of friendship, strength and self-discovery.
I received this book free from the author and voluntarily reviewed it with my honest opinion.

Good book, terrible editing

I liked the story and will be looking for more by this author.

However, the editing was terrible. Multiple times sentence parts are repeated, and at one point the narrator clears her throat loudly and restarts her sentence! Did no one in post-production listen to this book?
