From USA Today Bestselling author Michelle Heard comes a new HOT friends to enemies to lovers standalone.
Everything changed the night my boyfriend died.
What should’ve been the most special moment of my life turned into a nightmare. Because of Hunter Chargill, I lost the love of my life. I’ll never forgive him.
Hunter used to be one of my best friends, but it turns out he’s nothing more than an arrogant a-hole determined to make my life a living hell.
But he should’ve known you can’t break something that’s already broken.
I manage to avoid him until my freshman year at Trinity Academy. Our cruel words and intimidating touches quickly spark a flame, and instead of us going down in a blaze of hatred, desire sizzles to life.
I know I’m in trouble when I start enjoying our fights. Instead of wanting to punch him, I find myself wondering what his lips would feel like on mine.
A stupid game. One kiss. And my perfectly constructed walls come crashing down around me.
I should feel guilty and make Hunter pay for what he’s done.
But sometimes a tormentor becomes a protector.

My Thoughts <3
I want to start off this review saying that I LOVE this author. The Enemies to Lovers series that she wrote is still one of my go to series to re-read. That being said, I have felt with the Trinity Series and now with The Heirs that some of the ‘bite’ in her stories is just not the same. I guess I am expecting a little more ruthlessness from the main men, especially with the names of the titles, but it just does not seem to be on the same level. Don’t get me wrong, the Trinity Academy series and now The Heirs series are REALLY good and I really like them, I just miss the grittiness! It could be that these books are NA books and the characters are younger, but they just seem quite a bit more immature and not as ‘hard’.
But back to Coldhearted Heir, these characters practically make me giddy. I LOVE that they are the mixture of the Trinity Academy and Enemies to Lovers series, just HECK YES! This book is Jade and Hunter’s story and to say that things started of rocky is like saying that the Grand Canyon is kind of a little deep. The blurb does a PERFECT job of introducing the characters and the story and it allows you to get caught up in the book from the very beginning.
All in all, I liked the book, the story was one I could get behind, it was just the childish nature of the characters that turned me off a bit *COUGH Jade COUGH*. BUTTTT, this is still a book that I would read again for the story, nostalgia of the characters and next gen atmosphere. I give it 4 outta 5 stars and will check out the rest of the series. I see that there are a lot of books planned to come up for this series and I like that I will be able to see these characters grow and hopefully mature!
PS: Thank you to Michelle Heard and Candi Kane PR for allowing me an advanced copy of the book to read and review honestly.
