My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars
Heart String by Melanie Moreland is a beautifully written, often sad story of trying to live your life when everything is against you. The story focuses on Charlotte ‘Lottie’ Prescott, a woman who hates her job and is slowly dying inside. She goes to work, goes home, and puts it on repeat. On her way home she stops to listen to Montgomery Logan play his guitar in the subway, it is the only thing that seems to soothe her and thus their story begins.
The story brings together two people who are each other’s anchors. Both Logan and Lottie have had a lot going on in their past as well as in their present, but they seem to melt together and heal each other’s hearts. Lottie’s story is quite sad and the fact that it seems to come to such a disastrous head makes it even more poignant. You don’t have to agree with what her mother and father did to her, but you do feel sympathy for what all of them have been through.
Logan is just one of those instant boyfriends, he is sensitive, strong and caring. He takes care of Lottie the only way he knows how and that is through sheer love and protection, whether it is in his arms or through his songs.
This was a beautifully written book with some superb characters. The fact that all Logan wants to do is let Lottie shine is a testament to how well written a character he is and how much of a page turner this book is. Melanie Moreland has hit the nail on the head with this one and I can’t wait to see what else she comes up with.
ARC received for a fair, honest and sometimes long review. All opinions are my own. 😊
