Heartbeat. So good on so many levels, but also so, so heavy. Emotion. There’s grief and then there’s anger that’s not entirely baseless; later there’s the normal-ness in how she wants certain things. Layer on those lines made between her and her step-father as well as that between their before and ...

Other reviews at The Book Babe's Reads. History is full of death, and I've had enough of that. I really liked Heartbeat. I was very hesitant to start it, because I didn't really know much about it... just that it was by Elizabeth Scott, one of my favorite authors! Turns out I should have been wo...

I've said this and I'll say it again. Elizabeth Scott is an excellent author. Family issues are always more important than getting a new boyfriend in her stories and I admire that.

They are slow to start and require you to fully commit before they give you that rush of feelings and emotions. And then there ...

Super-confused -- thought this was coming out in August.So I'll keep my review brief for now. As a parent… wow... I found the premise of this one to be emotionally wrenching and heartbreaking. It was hard for me to read at times.Emma's anger toward and awkward relationship with her stepfather felt r...
