Why read it?

2 authors picked A Thousand Heartbeats as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book was action-packed. While it was much longer than an average novel, I breezed through it.

I just discovered Kiera Cass this year and am already in love. I only need 2 books, to have everything she’s written. She gives the action I crave with a fairytale coating. Highly recommended.

This book was absolutely breathtaking. Even though it was twice the size of most books, I flew through it. I couldn’t put it down.

This book paints a wonderful picture of what forgiveness is all about. Lennox killed Annika’s mother. Annika struggled with what he’d done for a while but after being trapped in the cave with him, she realized how much he struggled with his sin. It was during this time, she realized she loved him.

The story was so sweet, pure, and still action-packed. It was a beautiful combination of all my favorite things.
