The Heart

The Reluctant Romantics, Book 3

By: Kate Stewart

Narrated by: Aaron Shedlock, Samantha Brentmoor

Jack

For the last ten years, I've roamed the globe, captivated by the world around me. I've seen the seven wonders and admired sunsets from every continent. I've lived and loved, and that was enough for me. It would have to be. I was content, satisfied with my collection of experiences... until a phone call led me down a road less traveled.

If I'd known my fascination would pique and be forever quenched only a few hundred miles from where my curiosity had been born, I may have never set sail.

Rose

Stripped of the future I'd planned with the love of my life, my family and my career are now all that matter.

I've lived and loved, and that was enough. It would have to be. I struggled to move forward, to discard the part of me that held out hope for my obliterated heart. But I was bred a romantic, so it was easier said than done.

The chances of being struck by lightning are 1 in 960,000. The odds of being struck twice are 1 in 9 million. I risked those odds every minute, often cursing the dark sky, praying for static and a rumble of thunder, but it never came.

No, that second bolt hit me on a clear day.

Narrated in duet style. Books in the Reluctant Romantics series must be listened to in order.

Just.. wow

I laughed, I cried.. I cried some more, and then put back together.

This story was so impactful.
It’s about love & loss, and finding yourself through the grief, and moving forward.

It was worth every single tear.

The narrators were phenomenal!

Perfect end to a series

This was the perfect end to a series. This book made me laugh, eyes leak a little, and smile. It was great to see Rose get her happy ending, even though it was hard earned. The narration was perfect, and as a person from the south I normally cringe when southern accents are used (even though this was a Louisiana southern) it was nicely done.

Loved it!

Oh Kate what a great series!! I loved this story and the emotions evoked throughout this read. I was sad to finish it!

Perfect ending to a beautiful series.

What a beautiful book to end a perfect series. The story of Rose and Jack the last love story of the reluctant romantic series was full of love, laughter, banter and heartache. I love how Kate Stewart’s writing can really give you so many emotions and put you right in the story. If you have not read this series it is a 5 star must read!!

They really compliment each other

I really enjoyed Aaron’s Cajun accent for Jack. Hot! Especially when he laid it on thick. Samantha still had a hint of something other than Texan pop out.
