Defenseless Hearts

A Tender Hearts Novel, Book 2

De: Meagan Brandy

Narrado por: CJ Bloom, Alexander Cendese

After months of silence, here she stands on my front porch, waiting to be let in again. But it's the same play every time, and I know how this ends - I give her all I have, and she carries it with her on the way back to him.

I should turn her away, but I won't. Couldn't do it if I tried.

Because no matter how many times she pops back up, pulls me in, and drags me under, it will never be enough. I'll always want more. More of her. More for us.

And she'll always choose him.

Contains mature themes.

#2 is even better!!!!

LOVE!!! I felt so deeply for the pain in this story. I loved the pull of attraction and the aches of frustration. I was absorbed and felt like I was living in their story.

Parker 😍

After falling for Parker in Fumbled Hearts, I couldn’t wait to dive in to his story in Defense Hearts – and wow, what a journey it was.
At first, I’ll admit, I wasn’t sure how I felt about Kendra. If you were swooning over “Hero” in the first part of this duet like I was, you might struggle with her in the beginning too. But trust me – stick with it. Their story unfolds in a way that makes you understand, and eventually appreciate, every moment they share (even the tough ones).
Parker is everything I hoped he would be and more. He picks up a few different nicknames along the way, and each one fits perfectly for the phase he’s in – but “Hero” might be the most fitting of them all. And it doesn’t just apply to him.
This book is emotional, raw, and real – with just the right amount of swoon. Meagan Brandy absolutely delivered.

I couldn’t put it down!

Welp! I stayed up all night listening to this one. Such a beautiful story. It hit on a lot of sensitive issues but ended in a HEA- beautiful.

Interesting...

Ok, this is heartless, but my opinion...⚡️⚡️⚡️SPOILER⚡️⚡️⚡️ newlyweds should've gone, not Peyton's guy (innocent)!! Parker & Kenra horrible match. Kenra's character is a weak, pathetic, stupid girl. Parker deserves better. Listened to several of Alexander Candese's audiobooks & have not gotten used to his overly excited narration.

The love of friendship!

I absolutely loved this story!!! I’m now curious if there’s going to be a 3rd +++ book coming out soon and if so when?!?!?

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Woah this one was even harder to read. Like I knew there was more to Parker, but this was heavy. I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop, but there was more than one shoe. An avalanche really. I was expecting a story like Lolli and Nate’s but it’s so not. And that’s not to say it’s not good because it is. It’s just different. And it sets up Say You Swear SO good! If I hadn’t already read the book I’d have already been invested in Ari’s story. I do want to reread it now and see everything that I missed as a connection.

It wasn’t what I expected at all but it wasn’t terrible

My literal only comment is Parker is God sent, Heaven sent. I couldn’t but he is a literal angel. As for Kendra, Idek how I feel about her and WHY Deaton? Ughhhh I cry everytime I think about that scene. Onto Ari’s story.

Good story!!!

I loved this book!!! Parker was sooooo lovable!!!! It was a little long but keeps you interested!!!!

PARKER (Hero)

We meet Parker Baylor in Fumbled Hearts so I recommend listening to that first to get a backstory on some amazing characters that overlap into Defenseless Hearts. Can’t forget Lolli! Parker is the kind of selfless, loyal, patient, wears his heart on his sleeve type of guy & is in love with the one girl he can’t have. Kendra struggles with trying to do the right thing & hurting everyone in the process including herself. Is there a happy ending? This story is definitely a grab your tissues in more ways than one but well worth the listen! Thank you Meagan Brandy for another amazing story you never disappoint!

“I want to take all the bad away”

This is Parker and Kendra’s book who we first meet in Fumbled Hearts. While it can be read as a standalone I do suggest reading in order as there are spoilers and you will enjoy the side characters more.

This book hurt, a lot! You will fall in love with Parker, be angry with Kenra, cry a lot and then actually get an HEA that will feel good but still leaves the scars behind. I could deal with the angst but it is very sloowwww burnnnn.
Overall written really well and went through all the emotions! I wish we could get more of them, maybe a novella living their HEA as we spent so much time watching them in pain ❤️‍🩹

We meet Payton (Parker's little sister) and man, cue the tears that’s all I can say 🤧. Can’t wait for when we eventually get her story.

Ari and the crew are introduced and you can move on to Say You Swear to read her book.

CJ and Alexander did an amazing job with narration really handling all the emotions so well 👏🏽
