Heartbeat

Sharon Sala’s HEARTBEAT is her third book in the Jubilee, Kentucky series. She focuses on the second son of Shirley Pope, Sean Pope. He owns a computer repair and security business and lives at home to help his mother. Sean, along with his three brothers, was affected by the family scandal which is why they all moved back to Jubilee and changed their last name to Pope. Amalie Lincoln was in the foster care system most of her life but thanks to a benefactor at her school was able to attend college and become an accountant. Her life changed drastically after a car accident almost took her life and left her with scars. When Amalie decides to take a holiday vacation in Jubilee, the mountain calls to her and has her move to town. HEARTBEAT is the story of two people who had a crush on each other in grade school. After he becomes her hero in a bullying incident, and she changes foster homes they lose touch only to be reunited when he comes to install her computer equipment for her accounting business. Sean and Amalie get reacquainted and hear about what happened to each other during their time apart. They grow closer and closer as danger comes into play. Amalie never knew her father so when a DNA test finally gives her a match it just makes the situation more tense. Sean stands by her throughout it all. HEARTBEAT has suspense, murder and danger as two grade school crushes find love and family.

Sharon Sala writes a wonderful story of love, danger and suspense with a little bit of humor and psychic ability thrown in for good measure in the third installment of her Jubilee, Kentucky series. HEARTBEAT takes the reader on a journey through a helicopter crash, and murder, with lives at stake just when you think everything is going to quiet down. Ms. Sala adds some cuteness and humor with the addition of a very cute little girl. The Pope boys run to the rescue when the local school is in trouble. This Sharon Sala fan has loved her storytelling for years and her books are always a must-read for me. If you’re a fan of suspense with love stories and looking for a new author, I highly recommend this one. This story is a standalone with connected characters, so you don’t have to read Don’t Back Down and Last Rites, but I recommend that you do along with the two books coming soon about the last two of the Pope brothers.

SUMMARY

Sean Pope already lost Amalie Lincoln once. This time, he will risk everything to never have to say goodbye to her again.

Amalie Lincoln moved to Jubilee, Kentucky, to start fresh, build her business, and heal the scars of her past. Little did she know she'd run into Sean Pope, a beloved childhood friend she hasn't seen in decades. But on the day she moves to town, a helicopter explodes under suspicious circumstances, wreaking havoc on the families of Pope Mountain.

As the Jubilee PD dives into their investigation of the incident, Sean and Amalie find comfort and a budding romance with each other. Life in Jubilee becomes exactly what Amalie hoped for. But as the investigators uncover the truth and the crooks behind the attack set Amalie in their sights, Sean must face the danger or risk losing Amalie forever.
