Dear Heart, I Hate You
by J. Sterling
3.5
“Who we loved wasn’t always a choice. Sometimes it was an irresistible pull, a gravitational force, something we couldn’t see or control that drew us toward another. Sure, we could try to fight it. But in the end, love always won because it didn’t fight fair. It had a secret weapon, a tool of sheer force to use against us—our heart. And once that son of a bitch got involved, you could kiss away all options you thought might exist.”
I recently finished my first J Sterling book, Dear Heart, I Hate You and really liked it. Cal and Jules are instantly drawn to each other after meeting at a Boston bar, while Jules is visit for a work conference. They end up hanging out with each other for the whole weekend and then continuing their friendship/relationship through text and phone calls after Jules goes back to California.
My favorite thing about this was how well the author combined insta-attraction with slow-burn - it really had the best of both worlds vibe to it. Although, I think the inevitable conflict was pretty realistic in terms of modern dating it still made me want to reach in and shake these characters a bit. All in all this was a cute, light read and it definitely won’t be my last J Sterling book.
