A review by lilbeeemma
Heartborn by Terry Maggert

4.0


Her guardian angel was pushed. Keiron was never meant to be anything other than a hero. Born high above in a place of war and deception, he is Heartborn, a being of purity and goodness in a place where there violence and deceit are just around every corner. His disappearance will spark a war he cannot see, for Keiron has pierced the light of days to save a girl he has never met, for reasons he cannot understand. Livvy Foster is seventeen, brave, and broken. With half a heart, she bears the scars of a lifetime of pain and little hope of survival. Until Keiron arrives. In the middle of a brewing war and Livvy’s failing heart, Keiron will risk everything for Livvy, because a Heartborn’s life can only end in one way: Sacrifice. Fall with Livvy and Keiron as they seek the truth about her heart, and his power, and what it means to love someone who will give their very life to save you.








*I was given this story in exchange for a honest review*


It's been quite a while since I've read a good YA fantasy. I wasn't entirely sure if I'd like the story or not, but I decided to give it a shot. It has many twist and turns to it, and it was a lot different from what I was expecting. I thought it was just another story that appears to be different but isn't at all. Well, my mistake.

Heartborn isn't cliche and the same as all other fantasy books. It's different. Livvy was born with half a heart. I know, how is that possible? I was wondering the same thing, but just read. You'll get answers. She's on earth, living her life, not knowing about what's going on above. I adored Livvy, something about her felt familiar and real to me.

Above is Keiron, an angel who is getting his wings cut off and getting tossed below...
