It’s in His Heart by Shelly Alexander

Blurb

She has a secret. He has a scandal. And they both have an attraction they can’t deny.

Ella Dennings is furious. Soaking wet, muddy, and furious. All she wants is to enjoy a quiet summer retreat in her Red River Valley cabin. Maybe she can finish healing after the death of her husband, Bradley. Maybe she can even finish writing that third book in her anonymously written bestselling series. But when she arrives at the cabin in a raging rainstorm, who does she find holed up there but Cooper Wells, Bradley’s sexy best friend—a man capable of seducing women within seconds—and a man Ella has never liked.

Coop’s got his own baggage. He’s engulfed in a nasty legal battle, and after selling his home to cover his legal fees, he’s got nowhere to go but the cabin. He and Ella will just have to coexist under one roof…but is their heated animosity boiling over into attraction? And when Ella’s racy new book rocks the sleepy town, will her secret identity spell scandal for both of them?

My Review

All in all there were some funny moments and some sweet moments to be found in It’s In His Heart by Shelly Alexander. The scenario is plausible, but the H is difficult to like because of his actions towards the h. Cooper did eventually worm his way into my good graces, but not without a ton of fighting. Ultimately, he does become the man that the readers think he should be.

The h, Ella, is still grieving over her loss and is looking for closure. Can she find what she’s looking for? Will she open her eyes long enough to see what might be in front of her? The romantic story line is one we’ve read before, but does have a somewhat fresh perspective.

I found there to be a lot of repetition within the book and that distracted from the story line. I did receive this book as a Kindle First selection and found that it did make for a nice afternoon read and I probably would read something else from this author.
