This Heart of Mine

De: Susan Elizabeth Phillips

Narrado por: Jennifer Van Dyck

New York Times bestselling author Susan Elizabeth Phillips magic is vibrantly alive, and it's on display in This Heart of Mine, the fifth book in her wildly popular Chicago Stars series!

Molly Somerville loves her career as the creator of the Daphne the Bunny children's book series, but the rest of her life could use some improvement. She has a reputation for trouble that started even before she gave away her fifteen-million-dollar inheritance. Then there's her long-term crush on the quarterback for the Chicago Stars football team her sister owns—that awful, gorgeous Kevin Tucker, a man who can't even remember Molly's name!

One night Kevin barges into Molly's not-quite-perfect life and turns it upside down. Unfortunately, the Ferrari-driving riving, poodle-hating jock isn't as shallow as she wishes he were, and she soon finds herself at a place called Wind Lake. Surrounded by paintbox cottages, including a charming old bed-and-breakfast, Molly and Kevin battle their attraction and each other as they face one of life's most important lessons. Sometimes love hurts, sometimes it makes you mad as hell, and sometimes—if you're lucky—it can heal in a most unexpected way.

Pure Escapism

I always rate a book by how much I miss the characters when I've finished reading it - SEP books always exceed my expectations and I miss her characters terribly at the end of a story! I LOVE how she doesn't reserve passion for "the young" - it is so refreshing! In this story I often laughed out loud - quite embarrassing when walking alone!

Cute story

I thought this was a cute story. It was uplifting. Enjoyable, nothing serious, no awful things happening just cute.

Great story

Ah I loved it!!! So entertaining!!! First o didn't think would be that good but after the story really started I realized what a great story it has.

Emotional, beautiful story

Author did an excellent job of telling the story of two awkward lonely people finding love. I laughed and cried and fell in love with them both.

favorites

this is always been one of my favorite books and I have read it at least five different times. it will make you laugh out loud throughout the entire thing and has a ton of heart!

Last of the Chicago Stars

I'd forgotten how charming and funny Kevin and Molly are since it's been a few years since I first read the book. This is a fitting end to the Stars books which are all wonderful, although HEAVEN TEXAS remains my favorite.
Sad to think that we won't hear Anna Fields again.

Always a pleasure, Susan Phillips books!

This is another great story from Susan Phillips. Hilarious and unexpected fun, it had you bursting out with laughter. Anna Fields did a marvelous job too with the voices. I especially like the banter between Benny and Daphne. However, on plot-wise, I like Match Me If You Can more. But that doesn't mean this is not a great story, oh no...

Timeless.

This book might be almost 20 years old but the love, humor, passion and entertainment are as fresh as the day it was penned. Like all her books, it's one to listen to over and over. Anna Fields...well, that aren't enough superlatives to describe her performances.

I love this story.

My favorite story from Susan Elizabeth Phillips. Natural Born Charmer is my second favorite by her. But I love the Chicago Stars series.

Excellent Story

I adore this story and read, re-read, and listen to the recording often. The late Anna Fields is one of the very best narrators ever. I have listened to books I've never heard of just because of her talented voice. This Heart of Mine is delightfully crafted by Susan Elizabeth Phillips. The human characters are vibrant and engaging. My very favorite part is the fictional children's books that Mollie writes and all the creatures she creates. This story has tears and frustration, but also laughter and love. I find it a very comforting read.
