Heartbreaker

A Hero Club Novel

By: Julie Kriss, Hero Club

Narrated by: Grace Grant, Lance Greenfield

Holden Whittaker broke my heart when I was 18. What kind of guy stands up his prom date and leaves her hanging, waiting for him to show up? A total jerk, that’s who.

Never mind. I left my tiny nowhere town and moved to New York to follow my dream of becoming an actress.

Ten years later, my dream hasn’t happened, and I’m working as the office supply girl at Morgan Financial Holdings, doing my best to keep my paycheck and not get fired by the world’s most terrifying boss. Life couldn’t get much worse, until I get stuck in an elevator and guess who comes to rescue me? In a city of eight million people, it’s Holden.

Turns out he’s moved to New York, too, to be an EMT. I don’t want to see my teenage nemesis as one of the good guys, but he’s out saving lives every day, and he’s still gorgeous and cocky. I could fall for him all over again, and that’s a problem. Because it’s only a matter of time before Holden crushes me again.

My hometown heartbreaker isn’t the guy I left behind anymore. If I could stop hating him, I might belong with him. The question is, which one of us will get hurt first?

That seemed too easy.

I guess I am used to more angst, but this seemed a little too cut and dry. She forgives to fast and easy and all he had to say was sorry. He says he feels like crap and couldnt explain what he really did that night. So instead of humiliating himself with his own truth, he humiliated and abandons her without a word for 10 years. yeah, I wouldnt have been able to let that go so easy. First it is his family and now it is his job. Those things that he put first are always more important than her.

Quick and Easy Listen

I’m a huge fan of author Julie Kriss and really enjoyed this story. It was definitely a quick and easy listen while still hitting all the right plot points.

very good

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! good overall

This book will have you laughing your head off!

Really cute and funny story! Enemies to more story with a crazy boss and snarky teen. Worth the read/listen!

What a great surprise

I have fallen for most all of the Cocky Hero Club books, so I saw Heartbreaker was a quick listen by two of my favorite narrators and so I downloaded even though I’ve never read anything else by Julie Kriss and hadn’t read any details on the plot.

It was so good. I loved the quick wit, the inclusion of a curvy heroine, and the nod to all of us who love romance novels! Best of all was the unexpected appearance of a Graham Morgan and Soraya from Stuck Up Suit. 💗

Too easy...

Spoiler: Prom is a big deal for most of us. The heroine spent time to get ready and was stood up by the hero. Fast forward ten years, they met again. Then she cried after he apologized and she agreed to go on a date. Okay, the heroine was so easy to let it go and willing to have dinner with him? I roll my eyes so many times with this story that I wanted to throw my phone and tell her how dumb she was! The hero was a loser because it took ten years for him to apologize and mind this, they met by accident. She tried to play games with him and playing hard to get. Yeah right! I will not recommend this story since I hate both characters.

Loved it!

This was sweet, funny, sad, and steamy. Julie Kriss is now on my favorite authors list.

The author’s narrations were perfect. Grace Grant is so talented, and has been a favorite narrator for several years. She never fails to make me smile.

Holden & Nina

This book was 2 hours to long.. Holden stood Nina up for the prom, 10 years later they meet again & 2 hours in he finally gives her a partial explanation of his no show of prom night. The book was told in two P.O.V.s which was good, but some of the filler was unnecessary.

3 stars!

Heartbreaker by Julie Kriss is another story written in the Cocky Hero World. Mina and Holden have history. In fact Holden stood her up 10 years ago on prom night and she’s never forgotten or forgiven him. To me 10 years is a long time to hold a grudge. I had trouble connecting to the characters. There were however a few side characters I loved that added humor to the story. Overall there were sweet moments and good chemistry. I didn’t love it, but didn’t hate it either.

Lance Greenfield and Grace Grant have good chemistry together. Their voices complimented each other well and enjoyed listening to them.

A fun story

This book is a great addition to the cocky hero club series. I love how all of the books tie together in some way so that we get to enjoy seeing the characters again.
