Crossing Hearts is a second chance romance about big secrets that someone feels s/he had to keep...
Emerson Montgomery is back in town she left behind years ago, trying to avoid everyone, esp. her parents... AND the love she left behind, Hunter Cross. Emerson is trying to avoid the inevitable questions "Why?" and her big secret... that she came back to town, dumping her life as a physical therapist for a pro football team, to just be a small-town physical therapist. And her first patient is... Hunter Cross. Hunter knew his shoulder always had problems after he tore the rotator cuff in his high school's final football game victory. He had great prospects for playing college ball, but he chose to stay on the family farm, where he is happy... to mend his broken heart after Emerson left him behind. An accident in the barn left him with severe pain... and old Doc prescribed physical therapy... With Emerson, whom he hadn't seen for 12 years. They slowly got back together. But Emerson's secrets cannot be denied much longer.
The book left me a bit exasperated at the FMC, as it's always been her stubborn pride, back then, and now. It's clear something happened to her to cause her to abandon her career, and if she won't say why, it's clearly something... bad. And she doesn't want people to worry? Eh.
Primary Plot: Why is the woman who left twelve years ago back in town, leaving behind her career? Her ex-BF intends to find out...
Tropes: return, reunion, family secrets
Overall Rating: 4/5
