Resumen del Editor

From USA Today best-selling author Claudia Burgoa comes a small-town, friends-to-lovers romance.

I’m not sure how I ended up in Heartwood Lake. One minute, I’m trying to help a friend, and the next, I’m being shipped off to a small town. And the only person to blame for my predicament is Callahan Thorndale.

It was my mistake for letting my guard down. Confession time: I have a soft spot for Cal. A debonair FBI agent who also happens to be a billionaire. He’s kind, intelligent, and always there when you need him. He’s also my best friend. How could I not help him? How could I not fall?

But in my line of work, I can’t trust anyone. I shouldn’t get attached. I shouldn’t let anyone into my heart. Now, I have to find a way out of Heartwood Lake with my heart still intact.

Starts with You is a novella. The prequel to the Heartwood Lake Secret Billionaire series—an emotional roller-coaster of a journey that combines the intense drama of Succession and the hilarity of Schitt's Creek.

A great prequel with great narration

Starts With You is everything you want and expect in a prequel to a new series. This short read gave you just enough to leave you wanting more, just enough to have you falling in love with the small town of Heartwood Lake but more importantly it has you falling in love with the characters. I was so excited when I heard Claudia Burgoa was releasing a new series set in another small town and all I need to say is I wasn’t disappointed in fact I fell hard and fast for FBI agent and billionaire Callahan Thorndale. What I didn’t expect was to be intrigued and wanting more from Sophia Hawkins Zimmerman a woman who is keeping secrets…..
Connor Crais and Stella Hunter did a great job bring the characters and their story to life. They were spot on with the love and the mystery.
I was captivated and intrigued in this quick read and it certainly kept me on the edge of my seat throughout and now I’m excited for what’s to come from Heartwood Lake.

Rip

Seriously I used a whole credit for a quarter of a story???? Where is the rest of the story???

Great start to a new series

I was so excited when I heard that Claudia Burgoa had a new series releasing. This is the prequel and has only wet my appetite for what is to come in the Heartwood Lake Secret Billionaires series.

I love stories set in small towns such as Heartwood Lake. I really liked FBI agent and billionaire Callahan Thorndale, he ticked all the boxes for me. Whilst Lake Sophia Hawkins Zimmerman is an intriguing woman, a woman who has secrets, who I admired. It may have been a novella but it captivated and held my attention.

Once I started this book I couldn’t put it down. Callahan and Lake met at Quantico and have remained best friends. I enjoyed the mystery and intrigue within this story and cannot wait for the next book in the series to learn more about Callahan and Lake and the secrets that are being hidden.

However, the heart wants who the heart wants and the attraction that sizzes between them is too powerful to overlook. As the walls they have both built, begin to crumble they both must learn to trust again. The question is are they prepared to put in the work?

The narration by Connor Craig’s and Stella Hunter drew me in and had me invested as I listened to their narration. They brought the story and characters to life for me. Their voices are easy to listen too, and they expressed all the drama, romance and passion
