Ari Daniels didn’t count on her whole world tumbling down around her in a mess of shredded promises, broken love, and unbelievable heartbreak. Alone and stricken with grief, she shouldered the blame and eventually closed her heart off, refusing to open it for another. After all, anytime she tried, guilt and regret were waiting in the wings to remind her how painful it was.
A bet and one steamy night with a stranger force Ari to confront all she’s been hiding behind. She tries to move on, but he refuses to stand down, wanting what she is terrified to give—herself. This man may very well destroy her in the end, especially when it’s clear he has his own demons.
What happens when two broken souls come together, finally allowing themselves to believe in the beauty of love … only to have to fight harder than ever to keep it.
Holy hell that was hot! This is my 2nd book by Harper Sloan and WOW I was just blown away by this book.
Unconscious Hearts is the story of Thorn Daniels, a smoking hot alpha male owner of a strip club and Ari Daniels, a savvy business owner of gently used high end fashion items. The many layers to this story… the intrigue, the mystery, the pasts of both of the hero and heroine and the love that emitted from the pages really speaks to the raw talent of the author to captivate the reader and suck them into the first book in this new Hearts of Vegas series… I am literally DYING for book 2!
Thorn and Ari are thrown into each other’s paths one night when she sees him kissing another woman at a bar… but their eyes meet during this kiss and it’s damn freaking HOT and unforgettable! Fate brings him into her store to sell stuff he inherited from his grandmother and what starts as a contract to buy his items for her store turns into more when he has thirty seconds to get her to want more. And OMG I desperately wanted her to want more… especially after that scene *fans self*
What makes Ari different for this known manwhore is her almost innocence and ability to be real and honest with him and to prove to him that he is more than just the money she could make from selling his high-end things… despite her broken and sad past… and when you find out about this past… WOW… just heartbreaking! But this strong man who has never shown any feelings toward anyone or anything before, opens up in ways that will make readers just fall in love with every part of him… not just his body… or his tattoos… but his good heart and the man that he is behind the fear of his past.
All of this mixed with Thorn’s broody, alpha male presence made this book unputdownable… I literally DEVOURED it in a couple of sittings. There is some mystery sprinkled in that when it all is revealed I was shocked and surprised because I didn’t see it coming. I loved most especially the scenes watching the characters seek help for things in their past… to grow and overcome, to be better versions of themselves. They never gave up, they always wanted what was best for themselves and each other and I just loved reading the care that went into their own mental health.
There were some things that I thought were a bit too fast… where I wanted a bit more but overall Thorn’s patience and Ari’s good heart and their friends and loved ones made this a series that is a must read for me and I can’t wait for more. I just loved every moment I was immersed in this story!
Readers who love sexy, panty-melting heat combined with a great story and unforgettable characters look no further than Unconscious Hearts!
