Straight from the Heart

A Novel

By: Tami Hoag

Narrated by: Staci Snell

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Tami Hoag comes this powerful novel of passion, heartbreak, and redemption—a story that celebrates our capacity to love one time, for all time, even in the face of adversity and change.

They say that each of us becomes an entirely new person every seven years. But Rebecca Bradshaw doesn’t feel any different when an old lover shows up severely injured at the hospital where she runs the physical therapy department. Seven years ago baseball player Jace Cooper left her without a second thought or the chance to share the life-changing secret she swore she’d keep from him forever. Now he was back, wanting both her help and a second chance. Becca hadn’t changed, and she didn’t believe Jace had either, but as she helped him repair his broken body and his fractured past, she would find she was wrong on both counts. The only thing that had stayed the same was the most important thing of all—and now suddenly time was running out.

This book had nothing to offer at all. I have LOVED other Tami Hoag books but I actually hated this one. The story was too predictable, too cheesy, too boring, and just annoying. I could not care less for either of the characters and their dialogue and interactions were juvenile at best. The whole story was just cliché. No more Tami Hoag romance novels for me! I have over 1,000 audio books and have given less than five 1 star reviews, but 1- star is high for this book. I bought it on sale and it was not worth it's sale price. Don't waste your time.
