Book Excerpt:
“Why would a professional hockey player fly out here, seduce me, and then vanish again?”
I can’t believe I fell for a liar. I was an idiot. A blinded-by-lust, hopeful idiot who threw me into bed with a sexy stranger, invited him to dinner with my entire family, and then woke up alone to a note.
I hope you can forgive me for lying.
Ha. Like that’s ever going to happen. If Beau French or Evanko or whatever the hell his name ever shows his hot, bearded face in this town again, I’ll make sure he regrets it.
To be fair, I practically threw myself at his crotch. And okay, fine. Getting naked with him was the first time I’d felt anything worth feeling since losing my little sister. It’s almost kinda nice to be fueled by the fires of rage instead of the numbness of grief. But I’m certainly not going to thank him for lying and then sneaking out of my bed like a thief in the midafternoon.
Thankfully, I have my older sister’s Christmas wedding to distract me. There’s no way he’d show his face there. Besides, there’s no excuse good enough to make me forgive him."

Review:
"Heart of Hope" by Lucy Score
My Assessment:
'Heart of Hope' was a good read about the closeness of a family to the donation of a sister Hope's organs after passing. The sister, Bristol, writes a letter to the organ recipient telling the person of Hope's life. How will this affect the person that receives this letter? The reader will have to pick up this novel and see how the author brings it all out to get the answer. The story will bring out a lot of good information about secrets, forgiveness, and trust. Will Beau and Bristol be able to make it back to each other? After Beau's explanation, it was hard to understand why Bristol had problems with his reasoning...but other than that...it was all good. The extended epilogue was exceptionally well thought out, and the author gives the reader a big smile. The story was an outstanding read.
