I just finished a Bolden story a few months ago that completely blew me away. So of course I jumped at an opportunity to read and review her next book. This story is totally different but a great change of pace.
Hidden Hearts is a nice mixture of police action, drama, thriller, suspense, and sweaty romance. Read on for the full review.
Hidden Hearts by Marci Bolden
Series: The Women of HEARTS (Book 1)
Publisher: Pink Sand Press (October 15, 2019)
ISBN-13: 978-1950348237
ABOUT:
Former Army Sergeant Holly Austin and her team at the HEARTS agency don’t normally find the police at their door. But it’s been weeks since a local woman vanished into thin air…and now there’s a second victim. Police Detective Jack Tarek wasn’t officially working the Julia Frederickson case until a second victim made the matter personal. Holly is willing to cooperate with Jack “unofficially,” but she quickly becomes a distraction he can’t resist.
The leads on their cases might be running cold, but the attraction between the investigators is sizzling hot. With every lead a dead end, those close to the investigation grow increasingly impatient for answers. Just as hidden secrets come to light, one of the investigators vanishes without a trace. The HEARTS team has just hours to solve the case—or risk losing one of their own.
Hidden Hearts by Marci Bolden Review
I love when an author takes a female and makes them the bad ass in the story. But it wasn’t so much that she was a bad ass, it’s the fact that she is hiding shame, pain, and so many other emotions. She can’t let go until she meets the one person who completely understands her.
The relationship between Jack and her is powerful. The suspense portion of the story almost takes a backseat to their budding relationship.
But there is another story going on that is tense and time is of the essence. The author uses extreme detail that can get down right shocking. She keeps us on our toes with many twists in the story.
A balanced blend of romance and suspense, Bolton writes a compelling story full of emotional highs and lows. One you won’t want to put down.
