BlindSided: a love story

★★★★★ “That had to be one of the most emotional and heartfelt books I've read in a long time because wow, that was both intense and sweet and just everything my romantic heart wants!” (Goodreads)

In this swoon-worthy enemies-to-lovers tale, where grumpy meets sunshine, the tension between April and Carter is as palpable as the Tennessee mountain air. Perfect for fans of Mia Sheridan, Nicholas Sparks, and Jennifer Hartmann.

April Simmons, a bestselling author, escapes to a secluded mountain cabin to find solace and inspiration. What she doesn’t anticipate is her infuriatingly charming neighbor, Carter Hills—a rock star with a bad-boy reputation and a heart full of scars. Their initial clash sparks fireworks, their banter sharp enough to cut through the thick mountain fog.

Despite their differences, April can’t help but be drawn to Carter's rugged charm and the way his smoldering gaze sets her pulse racing. Carter, captivated by April’s fierce independence and quick wit, finds himself battling the demons of his past while trying to resist the pull of her allure. Both carry emotional wounds: Carter from a recent betrayal, and April from a past heartbreak that left her wary of love.

As their paths continue to intertwine, the chemistry between them becomes impossible to ignore. But with every heated kiss and whispered secret, they edge closer to the precipice of heartbreak. In this secluded town, passion and peril are two sides of the same coin.

Will April and Carter give in to the fire that threatens to consume them both, or will they retreat before they’re burned? In the end, they must decide whether to take a chance on love or protect their hearts at all costs.

Blindsided is a poignant, heart-wrenching story of love and redemption, where the journey to happiness is wild and unpredictable. Book one in the Heart Song duet, this is the introduction to April and Carter’s heartbreakingly beautiful love story. It begins where False Promises ends. The book can be enjoyed on its own, with or without reading False Promises first.
