Change of Hart is a beautifully written second-chance romance full of heartbreak, healing and a love that refuses to give up. Childhood best friends, Blair and Denver’s bond is messy, emotional and deeply real. I loved how the story leaned into the pain while still holding onto hope.

The flashbacks to their younger years added so much depth and emotional weight. I’m a sucker for second chances and childhood best friends, and this hit both perfectly. You can’t help but root for these two as they find their way back to each other through grief, guilt and personal growth.

The Wells Ranch series just keeps getting better - this installment is raw, romantic and quietly powerful.

Thank you to NetGalley and Ballantine Books for the ARC.
