GRR Reviews Back to the Heart by Sky Corgan


Back to the Heart is about secrets and letting go. It delievers average drama as the setup is pretty much a trope.

Ana White moved home after having her dream destroyed, her heart betrayed, AND pregnant. She wanted to be a paralegal, but she can only find a secretarial job in a law firm... Then the head lawyer seduced her... but made it an affair. When she got pregnant, he accused her of trying to entrap her and fired her, and also gave her horrible references so she can't find another job. She was surprised to find a stranger on her family ranch... Ryan Black just wanted to get away... He left his job behind, just wanted to spend some alone time in a place where nobody recognized him. But he found himself drawn to Ana. Ryan, however, was keeping a secret... He's actually Brennan, a billionaire businessman. And Ana fell for the enigmatic and compelling man. Then he left, promising to come back... And didn't. Did he lie? Will she trust him ever again?

Somehow the setup just didn't work that well for me. The part about trust betrayed was basically cliche, and I honestly didn't feel much emotional swing at all. Altogether, a bit of "meh".
