DNF… holy instalove…. Surprised they weren’t married and pregnant by 25%. I’m ok with quick relationships if the two characters knew each other before, but it’s a red flag to be have the MMC introducing the FMC as his GF at the very beginning of the first date to his student. Hard pass.

Like the perfect symphony written in musical notes, the characters in this story could not have been written any better and the intertwining of their lives was yet another masterpiece written by Melanie Moreland. Lottie and Logan have an instant connection but one that is completely misunderstood, but through his music the best of each is brought to the forefront and made for a heart warming true love story. There is no fluff or pomp and circumstance within the chapters, but just honest emotions and a love story that needed to be told. The reader will come away from this book with love in their heart. 5 Stars are not enough!!

Charlotte, Lottie to her friends, works tirelessly at Prescott Inc., her fathers business. Even though she hates her job she does it out of obligation. Lottie feels like she has to be someone she’s not to make her parents happy. But what about her happiness?
Everyday Lottie rides the subway home so she can see him. Montgomery Logan plays his guitar everyday in the subway station. It is the one part of Lotties day that she enjoys, that she lives for. His music makes her feel, helps her unwind, and relaxes her.
When Logan first saw Lottie he knew he needed to help her. He saw the stress she carried and the unhappiness. When he started playing his guitar it was for her, and he came back everyday just to see her.
Their relationship and love is fast and unexpected. They are so sure of each other and the happiness they feel when they are together. Nothing can tear them apart, not even Lotties parents who don’t approve. But Logan is just what they all need to bring them back together and heal old wounds.
Such an amazing story! Quick easy read that will leave you wanting more.

Heart Strings is not the finest from Miss Moreland. This book is more subdue and focus more on sex. Like many romance readers, sex sceses are good but I need more in depth of the story.
After all this is from Miss Moreland.
Miss Moreland usually writes a story that full with moral messages. I can relate to Lottie. Her whole life is lonely, depressing and sad. But at least she still have a good job. Miss Moreland also not explain the attraction between Logan and Lottie.
It just told, Logan fell a strong attraction toward Lottie on the subway.
Anyway.... moving on

Heartstrings surprised me, was not expecting this really swoony, romantic love story, and Logan was just amazing from page one. His confidence and belief in his ability to be who he was and not be intimidated gave the book a solid backbone. Lottie needed him more than she knew, and being with him enabled her to move on from a toxic relationship with her parents. Logan is the catalyst in this book as he helps Lottie discover who she wants to be and help her find the strength to do it.
Heartstrings hit so many right chords (yeah, I did that) with the story's pacing, the characters, the steam, and its low angst. Heartstrings is the perfect book to curl up with and just enjoy the story of Logan and Lottie, who are two of the sweetest characters I have read in a while. I am going to have to read more Melanie Moreland.

A sweet, somewhat sappy, musician heals a broken woman story. Charlotte (Lottie) works for her workaholic father at his investment firm. She hates her job, it’s sucking the life out of her. She takes the subway home every night, exhausted but needing to hear the musician that soothes her nerves.
Off topic from this story: If you ever have a chance to hear musicians in a subway, do it! There is NOTHING like that experience.
He began another song - one of my favorites - and I relaxed back, letting my eyes shut as the notes drifted over me, low and sweet. When he began to sing, a tear slipped down my cheek at the richness of his voice. It felt as thought he were singing only to me.Little does she know, he actually is. This story was like a warm blanket on a cold night. A low angst, low drama, insta-love, hallmark-esk feeling story. Logan was WAY too perfect but I let that go and enjoyed the story.
I knew right then, I was in love with Montgomery Logan. Every single side of him, I adored. And I wanted to keep him.Yup, that book cover made us all want to keep those muscly forearms too Lottie. That guy doesn’t look 26, just saying.

Melanie Moreland pulls at your Heart Strings with this contemporary romance that is full of love, loss, passion and all the feels.
Charlotte "Lottie" is trying to get through life one day at a time as grief eats away at her and no one seems to notice. Montgomery Logan notices Lottie one night in the subway and can see the pain in her eyes until he starts playing his music. After this, he makes it his goal to try and cheer her up with his music daily. As they move from strangers to friends to lovers, Logan renews Lottie's look on life.
Melanie Moreland sure has a way with words that pull you in, take you on an emotional ride and have you strumming a romantic tune on your Heart Strings.
