SOUTHERN HEART BY NATASHA MADISON

5/1/2021

While Southern Heart isn't my favorite book of the series I did enjoy reading it. I just wished it wasn't as "quick". A little more depth would have gone a long way!

Chelsea

Coming back home was supposed to be normal.

Not that my life had ever been normal, but it was getting there.

Then I opened the door and found a man—broken, bloodied, and fighting for his life.

I don’t know why, but I said I would take care of him. I had to. Needed to.

He was a mystery, showing up from out of nowhere. But he might have already stolen my heart.

Mayson Carey

The only thing I have ever wanted in my entire life was to forget who I was. Joining the military helped me do this.

Keep your head down and glide through life was my new motto. No strings, no relationships. Nothing.

Everything was working until a knock at the door had me face-to-face with the reason I was running.

So I ran—I fell into her arms, and she fell into my heart, but I know better than to think it’ll last.

Some secrets have a way of coming back and haunting us, no matter how much we try to bury them.

My Rating: 3 stars
Genre Romantic Suspense

While I absolutely love Natasha Madison’s books this one just wasn’t my favorite. I think it felt a little to rushed for a book that had characters dealing with some pretty awful stuff. Don’t get me wrong, the book isn’t bad, and I enjoyed reading it (in one sitting), but I felt like everything happened way too fast! For me, it would have felt more suspenseful if the author took her time and given the characters more backstory. I also would have liked a little more angst towards the end when everything got hairy.

Even though this wasn’t my favorite read from Natasha, I would still recommend it especially if you’ve been following along in the series like I have. The ending of this one has me really intrigued for the next book and I’m really excited for it’s release!
