Fragments of the Heart

By: Ally McGuire

Narrated by: Savannah Rivers

Love can be the most thrilling expedition of all.

Archeologist Kelly Pierce lives for adventure, weaving a tapestry of exploration, seeking out artifacts that whisper stories of the past. Always ready for the next expedition, she never thought Oklahoma would be on her map.

Shawn Scott thrives in predictability. As director of Descriptive Statistics, numbers are her world, but people? They're a puzzle. So, collaborating with a British archaeologist is an incongruous with her routine as a desert oasis in the Arctic.

But when a new site is temporarily exposed in Alaska, Kelly and Shawn unite, racing against time to claim the artifacts. Amidst the treacherous terrain and chilling uncertainties, they grapple not only with the elements but with the awakening of emotions neither anticipated.

As danger looms, will they unearth more than artifacts or will the forces that brought them together ultimately tear them apart?

Contains mature themes.

Loved this book

When one of the MC is on the spectrum, you learn a lot about the spectrum and I love it. In addition most of the book takes place in Alaska and I love Alaska, in my mind it is the most special state of the 50 states and I visited all of them. Narration was good.

Good

I enjoyed this book. It is set in a very different location than most books which was refreshing. Not much spice. Enjoyed the storyline. Would love to see a book about their BBFs romance.

Wow!

This book, I found very enjoyable. Though danced all around it but not specifically stated, this is a unique love story between a sexy British beauty and a handsome butch who is probably on the spectrum of autism or Asperger’s syndrome. Their combined expertise in archeology blend their personal attractions and professional gifts together. I laughed, listened intently, and rooted them out of the frozen predicament. Ali McGuire’s infusion of archeology, geology, and folks living with different ways of coping and viewing life made this a wonderful listen for me. Savannah Rivers’ narration brought these characters to life in a very positive way. Her British accent was beautiful!
