Publisher's summary

Number-One New Release in Romance

The number-one New York Times best-selling author of Verity and It Ends With Us delivers another breathtaking novel with a magnetic suspense that will keep you glued to your device.

"This book deserves a whole galaxy of stars, but alas, five is all I can give." (Shades of Rebecca)

Life and a dismal last name are the only two things Beyah's parents ever gave her. After carving her path all on her own, Beyah is well on her way to bigger and better things, thanks to no one but herself. With only two short months separating her from the future she's built and the past she desperately wants to leave behind, an unexpected death leaves Beyah with no place to go during the interim.

Forced to reach out to her last resort, Beyah has to spend the remainder of her summer on a peninsula in Texas with a father she barely knows. Beyah's plan is to keep her head down and let the summer slip by seamlessly, but her new neighbor Samson throws a wrench in that plan.

Samson and Beyah have nothing in common on the surface.

She comes from a life of poverty and neglect; he comes from a family of wealth and privilege. But one thing they do have in common is that they're both drawn to sad things. Which means they're drawn to each other.

Beyah and Samson agree to stay in the shallow end of a summer fling. What Beyah doesn't realize is that a rip current is coming, and it's about to drag her heart out to sea.

Enjoyed Very Much!

I want to find a reason to rate this 4 stars, instead of 5, but I just can’t find a reason.
There were a few good twists, and I was happy to finally see a “step” family that wasn’t made out to be like Cinderella’s step-family!!!
It’s also just a good story about how a person can screw up, but how that doesn’t make the person a screw-up - “you are not your actions” comes to mind.

Great story!

COHO got me with this one!

I am reading every book by Colleen Hoover. Heart Bones is my 12th read and this one had me crying like a baby. I love every one of her books, but this one may be my favorite.

One of the most heart warming stories I’ve ever heard

Colleen Hoover knows how to make you ache for a fictional character. Sampson and Beyah are the epitome of characters you root for, two damaged souls finding each other. And the heart bones quote, omg, my heart dropped when I heard that. I keep trying to put off listening to more Colleen Hoover books since I feel like she’s all I read, but every time I pick up a copy, I never regret the choice.

One of those rare books I will listen to 2x

I’ve listened to hundreds of audio books, many good but only a few I consider outstanding. This is one of them. The story made me want to get in my car and drive and when I was not listening I was thinking about the story and what was going to happen. Excellent book.
