Heart Keeper by Annie Dyer

 

💖💖💖💖💖

I fell in love with Nate, his two girls, Libbie and Zara, and Amber in Heart Keeper by Annie Dyer, book three in her Manchester Athletic series. This is my first read by Dyer and of this series. It will definitely not be my last.

 

Goalkeeper Nate Morris is juggling a lot of things while trying to come to terms with the grief and guilt he carries after the death of his wife. Trying to be both mother and father to his daughters, he is struggling. Becoming attracted to Amber, one of the team’s physios, causes him to feel guilty. With so much on his plate, Nate needs to decide if he is ready to move on or stay a single dad to his two beautiful girls. Amber is successful in her career and has sworn off footballers after being burned by a footballer before. Nate makes her want to change her mind. They have undeniable and off the charts chemistry. Neither looks at their fling as anything but sizzling benefits that happen in the moment; never considering a forever relationship.

Nate is an amazing dad; working hard, and struggling, to create a normal life for his young, precocious daughters. His feelings for Amber grew quickly, despite his trying to fight them. There is so much emotion in this book. Amber will need to come to terms with the surprise consequence resulting from their relationship; as well as making decisions how to handle everything. Nate and Amber will also need to come to terms with what their future could look like together. Dyer does an excellent job showcasing the struggle that Amber has as she weighs her options against the future she pictured; one without children. There are some difficult subjects handled in a sensitive manner over the course of the story.

 

Heart Keeper was a heartwarming, emotional story that should definitely not be missed. Ms. Dyer provided a tale with sizzling chemistry, magnetic attraction, and difficult topics being dealt with and handled with care. Neither Nate or Amber was looking for a relationship but fate had other plans for them. I loved the relationship that they had with his daughters Libbie and Zara; who stole the book out from under Nate and Amber.  I totally enjoyed and highly recommend Heart Keeper is to other readers and look forward to the next book in the series.

 

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
