I really enjoyed Heartwood! It is a sweet romance but also has depth and a little bit of mystery going on. I absolutely loved watching the relationship between Alex and Blake develop. They both had some dark things in their past that they are trying to deal with, but they are able to break down each other's walls and start to heal. They could be lighthearted and playful but there was also so much more going on beneath the surface. The way they came together to not only work on the refurbishment of Blake's place, but also to figure out what really happened to Blake's mom was incredible. This is a perfect book if you are looking for something feel good with a touch of mystery/danger!

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the advanced copy in exchange for my honest review.

This is a very emotional book. I loved the romance but I also felt like crying while reading those scenes. It's really, really good. I wish more people read it. It's more than romance and the chemistry is great but it's more than just a love story.
