Reckless Abandon

Reckless Hearts, Book 1

By: L.A. Shaw

Narrated by: Heather Firth, Theo Sinclair

He was my brother's best friend… but my brother was never the problem. Everything else was.

Sloan

Have you ever felt such a pull to one person that you cannot control yourself around them? Just one mention of their name and a fire ignites deep within?

Well I, Sloan Barton, had that connection... with my brother's best friend.

You see, I was in love with Wesley King long before I ever knew what love was. Always tagging along, admiring him from afar.

Until one day, he loved me back.

Except I found out he wasn't mine first and because of that, I had no choice but to let him go.

Although I tried desperately and failed to fight the pull between us over the years, that wouldn't be the last time we had to walk away from each other.

Wes

I'll never forget the moment I realized the sweet kid I grew up with had turned into the girl I couldn't stop thinking about.

I fell hard.

Suddenly, she became all my hopes and dreams. Until life pulled us in different directions.

They say timing is everything, so when I see the most beautiful woman I have ever laid eyes on sitting in my bar… I take that as my sign.

Maybe our stars have finally aligned.

beautiful story

This was such a beautiful love story. Wesley is the dreamy boyfriend every one wishes, however their road to their HEA was not a smooth one. The decision Sloane makes is one I'm not sure many could. Watching how Sloane's decision effected Wesley was hard to see. Their love was so strong, watching their story finally come together then break apart broke my heart. I enjoyed the duo narration as well as the current and past timeline. I kept expecting their third act breakup but it wasn't what I expected but I loved how their relationship was repaired. Just a great love story all the way around.
