Nothing Breaks Like a Heart

A riveting psychological thriller!

The strongest lies aren’t the ones we tell others—they’re the ones we tell ourselves.

I thought I'd found my fairy tale ending when Andrew Chadwick saved my life during a hotel fire and gave me a whirlwind love story I didn’t think existed. But trusting him made me vulnerable, and believing in the impossible made me an easy target.

Six months later, we're celebrating our dream wedding at an exclusive island resort, where every luxury imaginable is at our fingertips. It should be perfect. It should be paradise. But it's not.

Trust is a fragile thing, and as cracks begin to form in our perfect life, I realize I might not know my new husband at all. The man I trusted with my heart is keeping dangerous secrets—and the closer I get to unraveling them, the more I realize it's not just my heart at risk…it's my life.

From #1 New York Times Bestselling Author Barbara Freethy comes a pulse-pounding psychological thriller about deception, dark secrets, and the danger of trusting the wrong person. NOTHING BREAKS LIKE A HEART is perfect for listeners who love domestic suspense and twisted mysteries!

Loved this one!

Great story. Loved Lauren’s character. I would love to have a follow up with Lauren & Ethan.

Heart broken

Not trusting Andrew! I think the best option He was very convincing! Finding out her real father was a shock to me!

DNF due to narration

I listened to about 3 hours of this and just couldn’t go on. It is one of the worst narrations I have heard. I have no idea if I could recommend the book itself. I think I might have liked it, but I was too bored to focus.

Better than expected!

Great story with lots of interesting twists. Loved the concept behind the main plot. I’m not sure why so many were hating on the narrator, I thought she was fantastic.

Amy McFadden Narration is insufferable

Amy McFadden narration is terrible Stifled boorish dead flat annoying and insufferable This sappy ridiculous unbelievable story has good parts that allowed me to continue listening. Lots of eyeball rolling Over use of the "had" tense 😬 This story should be half as long for better delivery and impact
