Dear Heart, You Screwed Me

Product Information

She was no good for me. I was no good for her. But she was my kryptonite, and you can bet for sure that I was hers.” When Ashlee isn't being a stay at home mum and housewife, she is losing herself in her steamy romance novels and swoon worthy alphas. Mine. Killian’s thoughts only revolve around Reese. He needs her like oxygen; he wants her so badly. Once he turns around, she’s already in bed. It’s incredible. He finally met the one. Finally, he runs into her again. They are hampered by impediments. Putting them in a position where they have to pause and consider their options. Together? Separate? Distant love? I absolutely loved Reese, she’s been through so much and I was not expecting that prologue to have me in actual tears. Throughout the whole book Ashlee Rose is very talented with her writing for making us readers really feel the emotions and oh boy were there a few.

I wanted to love this book so much because these are some of my favorite tropes… but it just fell a little short. I absolutely LOVE Ashlee’s writing & the lady can write some spice. I just think personally the dynamic & build up of the relationship between Killian & Reese was not for me. I felt like I just missed out on them actually falling in love with each other. Everything was faster paced with a few time hops here & there so I just always felt like I was rushing to see what was next. I also felt like there was so many times that Killian messed up & nothing seemed to really get resolved between them. The age gap was done super well. I also really loved the characters themselves. Killian is your typical possessive, Alpha rich businessman. Reese is your strong yet kind of shy woman who is trying to find her purpose again after her trauma. I loved how strong she was & how obsessed Killian became with Reese. I just wish a few things played out differently. I loved Reese & Connie’s relationship so much. It was such a happy thing to see Reese finally get comfortable again after what she went through. My heart did truly ache for her. The ending was a little chaotic for me. I felt like there were too many plot twists & some that just left a very unsatisfied feeling in my gut. The spice was AMAZING & so freaking steamy! Honestly, it was my favorite part of the book.

Synopsis Dear Heart, You Screwed Me

She took up writing in 2018, and her debut novel, Something New, came out a few months later. Ashlee has several more romance novels planned after first promising to finish the Entwined In You trilogy and stop there. Dear Heart, You Screwed Me Book Summary Its not an easy love story for Reese and Killian, theres a lot of angst, push and pulling but when these two get together.... *chef kisses* its amazing the spice is so freaking good!!

The tragic beginning for Reese with losing Elijah really set the tone of the story and instantly showed you the kind of person she was. Especially with her moving to New York for a job opportunity and a fresh start, showed she was strong and I liked that as it described her so well. Knowing that she was alone in New York, you also knew it wouldn't be sunshine and rainbows which had it gripping right off the bat.With Connie and Reese, they had an instant friendship which was lovely, both trusting each other straight away and Connie waiting to help Reese settle in was all the more lovely. On Thanksgiving, Reese learns that Killian was the sperm donor for Connie's moms and the way they find out who each other is to Connie was just hilarious, it was typical but I loved it and couldn't get enough either way which proved that this book may have typical moments but the gripping of the storyline kept you there and it did for me. Even though Killian exactly who Reese was to Connie, her best friend, he couldn't stay away, despite how much they tried to stay away from each other, they just couldn't stay away, you felt the magnetic pull between them both, which was beautifully written.
