A review by saschadarlington
Stone Cold Heart, Volume 13 by Laura Griffin
5.0
You would think that when an author hits #13 in a series that the reader would see signs of the series flagging, cliches creeping in, and fatigue, but Stone Cold Heart with its driving level of suspense and teasing romance between Sara and Nolan feels more like a book from a fresh new series.
I know that when I pick up a Laura Griffin novel that I had better have hours set aside because I won’t want to stop reading and that was the case with Stone Cold Heart. The novel opens with the kidnapping of 19-year old Grace, with whom the reader immediately establishes a rapport. She’s the youngest on a bachelorette party and seems like she’s having the worst time ever and then when she tries to follow the pack into a bar, she’s carded but none of the other girls have cared enough to make sure that she got in. Her feet are blistered from wearing heels and she does the stupid thing we all say we’d never do but might be tempted to when we’ve had enough–get into a stranger’s car.
Enter Sara and Nolan. The one thing I can always count on with Griffin’s novels is that the leads are going to be appealing and they generally aren’t going to do stupid things. I loved Sara and Nolan. I loved that they had fun with each other and seemed to understand each other almost immediately. Nolan just seems so almost perfect (no one really wants perfect, right? 😉 ).
