Review: Just a Heartbeat Away
✨ Thank you Harlequin Books for the complementary ARC of Just a Heartbeat Away! Out Now! ✨
Listen, if three of your trusted romance friends all rave about a book, you buy the book!!! I had a Netgalley ARC of Just a Heartbeat Away, but I’m so glad I decided to buy a copy of it to read 🥰 I ADORED this book and think it deserves all the stars!
I haven’t made it a secret that age gap is one of the tropes I’m not crazy about. But if more age gap romances were like this one, I think I would read them all the time. @carabastone knows how to write some really swoon-worthy romance! And I love love loved how the characters handled the difference in their ages.
On paper there are admittedly some things in this story I don’t normally gravitate towards: age gap, single parent, heroine dates someone else for a while in the story. But I devoured this and immediately wanted more from Via and Sebastian. This is the kind of slow burn that grabs your heart and won’t let go. I can’t rave enough about how perfect every aspect of this story was. Just a Heartbeat Away easily made my 2020 favorites list.
And don’t let this sweet cover fool you, there is some steamy steam and it was very much worth the wait 🔥🔥🔥 Seriously, I could probably read about these two and their sweet love story forever. If you love friends to lovers, realistic storylines, and slow burn romance, Just a Heartbeat Away is a MUST read!
Thank goodness there’s already another book out, I immediately ordered a copy of Can’t Help Falling and I cannot wait to dive in tomorrow 😍💜 Kellisa
