The Wrong Heart

De: Jennifer Hartmann

Narrado por: Stefanie Kay, Neill Thorne

When my husband died, he left my broken heart behind.

He left another heart behind, too - his.

I know it's wrong. I shouldn't be contacting the recipient of my husband's heart. I don't even expect him to reply....

But there's a desperate, twisted part of me that hopes he will.

No names. No personal details. Just a conversation.

The only thing I have left of my husband is inside him.

Warning: This book contains heavy themes, such as loss of a loved one and suicide. Please listen responsibly.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Mind-blowing. Body-heating. Heart-stealing. He's a tortured hero, and she's a beautiful broken melody, colliding together in death and resurrecting from places within, where 'the beats are loud and songful.' All the damn stars!" (Pam Godwin, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today best-selling author)

"They say there is no reward without pain, and that’s how we’d describe The Wrong Heart. This author shredded our hearts to pieces, then stitched them back together with love, sincerity, and a whole lot of clever and insightful storytelling. The Wrong Heart has left an indelible mark on our hearts, as we’re still living every moment of this unforgettable emotionally stirring story of love, grief, and second chances." (Totally Booked Blog)

"There are books where you read the last page and then move on with your life, and then there are BOOKS, which even after the last page, stays with you forever. THIS is one of those books." (Lilith Seven Reviews)

So many emotions!!!

This book deals with some really tough issues! Death of a spouse. Attempted suicide. Child abuse. It is not for the faint of heart. But the story is SO good! Melody gets married to her high school sweetheart, and he dies on their 5th wedding anniversary. This was obviously a tough thing for her to deal with. She ends up in a suicide prevention group. This is where she meets Parker. He is her opposite in EVERY way! And is nothing like her late husband. But that is probably what attracts her to him. They end up going through a lot, even though Parker has this cant stay away/cant stand to be around her attitude. Parker is a tough one to deal with because you know what he has been through, but still get so hurt by some of the things that he says.

This book had me emotional in quite a few places. I really felt for Melody. She just seemed to keep having to deal with one thing after another and she somehow managed to keep a mostly sunny outlook on things. The narration was ON POINT!!! Stefanie and Neill brought the emotion! Brought the intensity! I was totally captivated listening to them!

Angst 💔💔💔
Narration 👏👏👏👏👏

prepare for your heart to be ripped out!!

There's so much I have to say about this book but first I need to acknowledged the stars of this audio!
Neill Thorne and Stefanie Kay are phenomenal; they honestly left me bereft at many parts of this book.

When I say this book needs to be listened to and not read, it's because both of these insanely talented narrators brought this book and all the emotions to life!!
Neill has become my newest favorite narrator because he is so incredibly talented. He voiced several characters and was consistent with the juggling between them. Stefanie is brand new to me but I will be looking up more audio by her.

There's no other book out there like this one which made it 5 stars , hell, 10 stars!!

I won't be giving anything away that would affect a new listener's enjoyment, but just know: you will cry your heart out, you will fall in love with an unlovable character. you will feel so much for the hero and heroine you won't be able to contain and you won't expect any of the twists!!!

Love it!

I loved this book. This is the second book by this author I’ve listened to and she is amazing. There are trigger warnings for this book, so make sure you check them out before going into it.
This book is full of emotion and angst. The story pulls you in and keeps you wrapped until the final word.
Melody is a young grieving widow. Her grief has paralyzed her and kept her from
being able to live and move forward. She decides to reach out to her husband’s heart recipient. Everything is anonymous, but she feels led to hold on to whatever last bit of her husband she can.
Parker is a troubled guy. He is angry at everyone and feels he doesn’t deserve anything good in his life. His past has also paralyzed him in the past preventing him from living a happy life.
When these two come together in a support group, they can’t resist the pull they feel for one another. Together they are flawed, but together they put each other back together.
This story was painful and yet beautiful. It was a true representation of how your past and grief can prevent you from seeing the good in the world. Jennifer was able to capture all that in this story.
Stefanie Kay and Neil Thorne were the narrators of this book. Their acting brought all the emotions to life. They were perfect in this together. They brought the raw and beautiful emotions off the page.

Amazing Story!

Oh My Heart!

I loved it. This book flipped all my emotions upside down and back again. It also held a twist I never saw coming. I thought for sure I had it figured out and then wow what a surprise. Just such a good book - definitely recommend!

Oh the twist

Such a sweet story. I loved how the characters evolved. The twist made my jaw drop.

One of the best books I have listened to.

This book was moving in so many ways. It has love and loss, fear and hope, passion and rejection, and life or death. It’s a beautiful story about dealing with grief, not just from death, grief of living.

Emotional

I really liked this book. I thought the characters were likeable and realistic compared to some books I have read. Melody was level headed when dealing with Parker. There was not a lot of frustration over wishing they would just communicate better. They actually talked about things like adults and patiently helped one another work through their difficulties. It did run the gamet of emotions though. I laughed, Parker's dry humor was wonderful. I cried, the first few chapters were heart breaking. I was surprised, the story takes a turn I did not expect at all. I was happy, the ending was everything you wanted it to be. I did not care for the epilogue. I understand why it was included, but it took the warm fuzzy feelings from the last chapter and stomped on them! I have read several books by this author recently, and have not been disappointed with any of them. Her style is clean, and the way the characters develop pulls you in. You can almost feel what the characters are feeling. I would recommend reading any of her books. The narrators were also great. They definitely added to the story more than taking away from it.

Beautiful Story!!!! ⭐️❤️⭐️❤️⭐️

5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I absolutely loved this book!!! A fantastic story with few twists and turns and the perfect amount of steam! Be ready to cry, laugh, swoon and fall in love with Melody and Parker!!! And y’all the epilogue- OH MY GOD THE EPILOGUE!!!!! Such a phenomenal book! Hartmann knocks it out of the park again!

What a great story!!

The narrators were spectacular!! I absolutely loved the way they brought this story to life. Two broken souls uniting as one.

Amazing!

I Loved every moment of this book! Such a beautiful story! Highly recommended great read!
