Hard Hart

A Hart's Bay Novel

De: E. Davies

Narrado por: Greg Boudreaux

I felt all wrong until I met you.

Jesse Stone is rebuilding his life. He’s ditched his no-good ex, sworn off men, moved to a new town with his four best friends, and started the pottery business of his dreams. And then he slept with his hunky new neighbor. Oops. Jesse needs to focus on work, but all he can think about is getting Finn between his hands like a perfectly-shaped work of clay.

Trouble just blew into town, and his name is Jesse. Finn Hart knows that pursuing Jesse will ignite old family tensions, but he can’t stay away. The construction foreman has never built a lasting relationship. He’s too busy keeping the peace in a town that was founded by one Hart, but is slowly being strangled by another - Finn’s grandfather.

Finn and Jesse are on the same page: they want to save Hart’s Bay, and it starts by bringing tourists in with Jesse’s new art gallery. But their hearts are bruised, and taking a chance comes with a price. Not everyone in Hart’s Bay wants change. For a few narrow minds, nothing good should come to Finn’s branch of the Harts, and that includes love.

Can love wash away 20 years of bad blood and bring a new dawn for Jesse, Finn, and all of Hart's Bay?

Hard Hart is the first book in the new Hart’s Bay series about a small town full of nosy but well-meaning neighbors and brotherly banter. It’s a stand-alone novel with a happily-ever-after ending, and plenty of smiles and steam along the way. If that cove could talk…oh boy, has it ever seen things.

What a Hart Wants

Main Characters: Fin Hart/Jessie Stone

Fin is a man burdened by a terrible sense of responsibility. Believing that because he is a Hart that he has a duty to the citizens of the beautiful but declined town named for his family, Hart's Bay. He does what he can to improve the lives of those living in the city as do his part of the Hart family (referred to as "good Harts") but their efforts are constantly undermined by the "bad Harts" (Think Hatfields and McCoys except all within the same family it's brutal).

Jessie found the courage to leave an abusive relationship standing up for himself wasn't easy and he is marked by the relationship and has sworn that he will not be put in that position again. With the help of a motley crew of amazing friends he sets out to create a new life for himself. Life in a small town may be just what the doctor ordered but is the reclusive community ready for a gaggle of proud men to enter their city?

Fin meets Jessie and sparks fly but Jessie is determined not to be distracted by anyone, this is his life and he has to make it work, dependent on nobody...but maybe Fin is just what he needs a friend and possibly more. You can never have to many friends right? And passion...what is life without passion. Passion creates art and he is an artist so it's kind of job requirement and it's something that has been missing for so long. But will he get distracted by the power of this beautiful man with haunted eyes? Will Fin chase Jessie away when the family feud threatens Jessie's new life?

Listen to the melodic voice of Greg Boudreaux and find out. I personally cannot wait for the rest to come out. Greg is outstanding as always and E. Davies knocks this one outta the park.

You sculpt my heart with your love

So a new spin off from E. Davies and I’m a happy camper! I like his writing style because it has just the right amount of fluff, romance and steam. Now, onto reviewing.

Jesse has come to Hart’s Bay for a fresh start. And our protagonist has a pact with his friends and that is no relationship because they want to focus on their art. But you know pact and promises have a way of breaking easily because Jesse met Finn, a native Hart’s Bay dweller who’s just irresistible. To trust again for love or to preserve? Jesse has to make a choice soon.

This has good pace. Finn wants to save his town but he couldn’t believe that new people are actually coming to town. And Jesse wants the slow pace and leisure of a small town. They started off as f-buddies but they both knew soon that they wanted much more than that from each other. It was doing really well until the middle of the book when they started to doubt each other. Although it was resolved quickly, I personally think it was unnecessary. The feud of Hart family is rather complicated and messy but it was tied quite neatly in the end. Honestly, I just don’t care because Finn and Jesse were so lovely together. And this was very steamy! 🔥 Greg did an excellent job portraying the character.ls. Loved him to the moon and back. Looking forward to next books in the series.

Good story sprinkled amongst the sex

Good story sprinkled amongst the sex.
Likable characters, even the bad guys.
Good story.
Lots of sex scenes, perhaps a little too many. Sometimes more is just more. A little fewer would actually be better, more anticipatory, if you get my drift.
Excellent narration by one of my all time favs.
