Not My Heart to Break
Merciless World
By: W. Winters, Willow Winters
Narrated by: Joe Arden, Samantha Cook
Hard to Love, Desperate to Touch, Tempted to Kiss all bring us Seth and Laura's story. Winters has crafted the story around an unbridled passion, dangerous liaisons and a hurt so deep that I am wondering if it can be salvaged. We see Seth and Laura hit bottom, and grow emotionally over the years. It's gritty and raw, each installment bringing new questions to light. It's full of darkness suspense and intrigue, heartache and steam. The perfect mix.
Joe Arden and Samantha Cook narrate the entire as Seth and Laura. I really enjoyed this team, Their voices complimented each other well and they became Seth and Laura. Both are seasoned performers and the additional voices of Jase, Bethany, Cami and others came easily. The story was alive in my mind, just the way a good narration always is. Loved these two together! Teddy Hamilton gives an appearance at the end gearing us up for the next series!

I was so excited to see that Seth & Laura's love story was put in one book.
Hard to Love
Mercy this book was just so good. I didn't want to stop once I started reading it. As always Willow just floor's me with her writing. This is Seth's story and believe me you want in on this book. It was just so good you won't want to put the book down. It's definitely a must read.
Desperate to touch
This is the 2nd book in this series of Seth and Laura's story and these are not standalone novels.
I am totally overwhelmed by the feeling and emotions. Willow has such a way with words that it will make you part of the story. Her descriptions, attention to detail and overall storyline will rock your world and heart, and not put them back together until she’s ready!
Once again it ends on a cliffhanger, but I know this lady won't leave us hanging for long, so don't be discouraged in one clicking this book. It's so good why wait.
Tempted to kiss
Omg what a book this story of Laura and Seth just keeps getting better and better and Willow just keep you flipping pages with the suspense, the angst. I just cannot wait for the next one. This is absolutely a must read.
Easy to Fall book
Once again Willow brings her A game in this book. I've come to realise that there's nothing this lady can't write that won't have you feel like your heart is being ripped out and being put back in with all the emotions you feel in her book's.

Not My Heart To Break by Willow Winters is a romantic suspense series that I listened to on audio narrated by Samantha Cook, Joe Arden, and Teddy Hamilton.
This is the complete set of the Hard To Love Series which includes:
Longing To Hold (Prequel)
Hard To Love
Desperate To Touch
Tempted To Kiss
Easy To Fall
Willow did an amazing job on this series! This is the first set of her books that I have read and it definitely won’t be my last. This series will take you on an emotional roller coaster that you never want to get off. I absolutely loved the chemistry between Laura and Seth.
Joe and Samantha did an amazing job on the narration. They really know how to bring the story to life.
I loved that Teddy came in on the end for the voice of Marcus to set up the next series in the Merciless World.
I would highly recommend this book if you love romantic suspense.

Hard to Love – Another perfect start to a series that you will not be able to put down. When your life is ruled by family traditions, greed and power it is very hard to break out of the cycle. Seth and Laura love each other to a fault but will it be enough to survive. Once again Willow Winters creates beautifully written characters that the reader cannot help but fall in love with and combine that with a storyline you literally cannot put down adds up to a masterpiece that deserves, more than 5 stars. I cannot wait to see where this one goes.
Desperate to Touch – This review is one of the hardest one I have written in a very long time. No words can do this complex and heart wrenching story justice. Seth and Laura have so much against them that each and every turn of the page felt like I was waiting for the shoe to drop and for my heart to stop. Willow Winters is known for her intense storylines but this books is far from the others that have come before. 5 Stars are not enough and if you can only read one book this year than this is the one that you MUST read.
Tempted to Kiss – Just when you thought you knew where this story was going - BAM - it takes a turn that you will never see and holy crap what a great wild ride. Seth and Laura will do anything to survive but at this point the reader does not know if that is even enough. Hold onto your hats as the ending will make you scream at your Kindle and will leave you needing more. Willow Winters - Please write FASTER!!!
Easy to Fall – Finally the conclusion of Seth and Laura's story. Highly emotional and with just enough angst to lock me in from the opening pages, Willow Winters has once again created a masterpiece that will be read and re-read time and time again. I fell in love with Laura and Seth from the first book and I was not disappointed with their ending.

I am not ok. This was a wild, tragic, heartbreaking and a relief filled series!!
THE SCRETS DAMN NEAR KILLED ME! Gah!! Seth was the worst and the best. Once he opened up…holy hell! He made me a puddle. Laura had so many chances to completely break but she held strong. Her life was such a disappointment at times and Seth was part of that…her father, the pregnancy, her heart, her best friend, all of it. It wasn’t like Seth had a huge choice in his life. But they never gave up on each other. No deserved a HEA more than Laura!

The complete collection of the Hard to Love series is deliciously dark, angsty, and suspenseful romance at it's very best! Seth and Laura's binge worthy saga had me on the edge of my seat enjoying every twist and turn of their story. Five stars for this must read!
