Foundations of the Heart

By: Ngozi Bolin

Narrated by: Erika Calvert

When accomplished New York architect Amara Blake returns to her coastal hometown to sell her late mother's storm-damaged house, she doesn't expect to find herself working alongside the guarded and grief-haunted Leo Hayes. As they restore the old Victorian's crumbling foundation, walls slowly come down between them, revealing wounds they've both been hiding.

But when misunderstandings and ambition threaten to tear them apart, they must decide what's worth building - and what's worth fighting for.

Set against the backdrop of a recovering coastal town, "Foundations of the Heart" is a powerful story about second chances, healing from loss, and finding home in the most unexpected places.

A Tender Story, Beautifully Told

This was a gentle, heartfelt listen with real emotional depth. The narration is steady and well-paced, letting the quieter moments shine. It’s a story about family, forgiveness, and finding your way back to the parts of yourself you’ve left behind. Honest, tender, and quietly moving—this one stays with you.

The romance built well

This was a slow and thoughtful build to a beautiful romance. I love how the author made this such a fast read. It is not syrupy but really left a good feeling.
