Heart of Hope

A Small Town Romance

De: Lucy Score

Narrado por: Sophie Daniels

“Why would a professional hockey player fly out here, seduce me, and then vanish again?”

I can’t believe I fell for a liar. I was an idiot. A blinded-by-lust, hopeful idiot who threw myself into bed with a sexy stranger, invited him to dinner with my entire family, and then woke up alone to a note.

I hope you can forgive me for lying.

Ha. Like that’s ever going to happen. If Beau French or Evanko or whatever the hell his name is ever shows his hot, bearded face in this town again, I’ll make sure he regrets it. To be fair, I practically threw myself at his crotch. And okay, fine. Getting naked with him was the first time I’d felt anything worth feeling since losing my little sister. It’s almost kinda nice to be fueled by the fires of rage instead of the numbness of grief. But I’m certainly not going to thank him for lying and then sneaking out of my bed like a thief in the midafternoon.

Thankfully, I have my older sister’s Christmas wedding to distract me. There’s no way he’d show his face there. Besides, there’s no excuse good enough to make me forgive him.

Sweet, Small Town Romance!

I listened to Heart of Hope on Audible, and I absolutely loved the narrator Sophie Daniels!! This audiobook is on of the shortest I've listened to in a while giving me the chance to listen to it, and not have to be listening to it for the next 2 months.

Bristol Quinn and Beau French/Evanko are a sweet couple in a truly sweet book by Lucy Score. The Quinn family has to make a really hard decision, and the Evanko family - such as it is, has their world rocked by the Quinns.

This was my last new to me book by Lucy Score, but I'll admit, this book had me nervous. I knew going in only that it dealt with death, and a transplant, and given that when I lost my Dad almost 15 years ago the only things my Mom could decide to donate were the muscles in his eyelids, I've always had the feeling that we didn't do enough, or couldn't do enough.

Anyway, the Quinns made the best decision they could when they had no choice left, only now they're having a hard time moving past the pain. Seemingly overnight after Bristol wrote the letter, and tossed her wish out into the universe, a stranger showed up in Hope Falls. Beau French, the BUILT yoga teacher, suddenly seems to be everywhere Bristol doesn't need or want him to be in Hope Falls.

Beau French (Evanko) is in Hope Falls to make sure the Quinns are decent people who aren't going to want something wacky from his sister. The sister who has wanted nothing except to meet the Quinns since the very minute she woke up last year and KNEW she needed to thank them.

Bristol and Beau's meet cute isn't a meet cute, but instead is almost a tragedy. And then when Bristol cooks Beau breakfast at her restaurant, The Early Bird, Beau already knows he's almost surely in love with her. Beau keeps making mistake after mistake, even though they're disguised as really nice guy things to do. He taught her to skate, to teach her child hockey lessons, to be there to distract her family on Thanksgiving. Through it all though remains the fact that Beau has lied over and over. And when he decides he's done lying he compounds it by making it worse.

I love Bristol and Beau, but probably almost to the end I wasn't sure if they were going to be able to work out their differences. The sweetness from Hope, their community, and their family was enough to keep me interested, but it wasn't my absolute favorite. That said, Lucy writes with her heart, and helped me to understand that all transplant families are doing the best they can, even if they can only donate one item and that Bristol and Beau were destined to spend eternity together (even if it were only as friends.)

Fantastic

Always a pleasure to have a story from this wonderful author. Thank you for your amazing work

Heartwarming Christmas novella

I really enjoyed this Christmas novella by Lucy Score. A beautiful story of family, love, and fate. Written with the author’s usual spicy romance.
