A reread for me. It was just as fun the second time around.

Lovely book which was right up my alley. I love me a poor downtrodden heroine. I also love a former mean girl who has changed her ways and must prove it to the people she formerly tormented. The hero is also a well written character with a lot of painful backstory. Lots of fun secondary characters. Some people who need to have their own book and some that might have already had one. I did read the first in this series but I think it might be a spin off? Anyway, I'm not real sure about Jessie Kay, but I'm loving this series so I will definitely try it. ( )

Harlow is homeless, artist, who was a merciless bully as a teenager and is hated by most of the townfolks. Beck is now living in her former home he catches her stealing a pie. He's been fascinated by her since he found a box of photos in the house and feels a connection of a traumatic childhood. Problem is Beck is a one night stand kind of man and Harlow is aving herself for her one and only. Drives Beck crazy and forces him to let go of the past so he has a chance of a future.

Their is just some special about The Original Heartbreakers series. I don’t know what it is that keeps me swooning and come back for more. Maybe it’s the small-town feel, the people who all have their own issues, pasts, and hatreds, or maybe it’s just Ms. Showalter’s amazing storytelling skills.

I was pulled in from start to finish and I couldn’t stop listening to the audio book narrated by Savannah Richards.

We are treated to Beck who is friends with Jase and West. They all moved to Strawberry Valley to start fresh, except Beck hasn’t changed his ways. He’s a player, a ladies man, and known as, One and Done. Then we have Harlow who grew up in the home that Beck and his friends now own. She’s lost a lot. Her mother, her home, and no one will give her a job all because of how she acted as a teenager; she was the town bully. She’s different, changed, but no one will give her a chances. No one has forgotten and so they give her a hard time, every chance they get.

The chemistry between Beck and Harlow is scorching. They have sparks from the start, but Harlow knows his reputation and will not be a one night stand and so she will settle for friendship. This book was fantastic. I was laughing out loud one moment and having my heart break the next. I just love the characters, the snarky humor, and those sexy scenes made me sigh with delight. This book is full of snark, steam, and lots of heart.

Narration: Ms. Richards is a wonderful narrator. She captured me. The voices are all distinctive and come across clear, crisp, and well defined. The small-town feels like a small town with it’s own unique people making a living in and around it. Everything from the setting to the characters felt genuine and passionate. I'm loving the audio books for The Original Heartbreakers series and I plan to continue the series in this formate.

Rated: 4 Stars

Beck and Harlow are two people with bad childhoods who are intensely attracted to each other. Demonstrated how early years can impact one's ability to have healthy relationships and importance of communication. ( )

The Hotter You Burn

The Characters:

Beck Ockley
Harlow Glass

The Story:

Beck and Harlow’s story is kind of strange but also wonderful. Beck is a stubborn cus but Harlow is just as stubborn and that’s probably why he loves her. They have their usual ups and downs but man that ending. I loved the chemistry between the two, even when they were arguing you could feel it.

The Random Thoughts:

Beck spent so much money in this book without a thought. It was crazy.

Harlow Glass stood on the porch of a hundred-year-old farmhouse that had more character than most people, wandering daylight wrapping the structure in its loving embrace.
