Embattled Hearts (Lost and Found #1) by J.M. Madden – Review by Michelle Austin

Embattled Hearts by J.M. Madden
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Embattled Hearts was a good 4 star read and the first book in the Lost and Found series.

There are some things you can’t change in life, who you’re related to, taxes, the nasty boss you’d like to shove off a roof. And you can’t choose who you’re attracted to.

Shannon is hired on to work at LNF Investigative Services. And when she meets John sparks fly between them. John doesn’t think that he has a chance with Shannon, why would she want a guy like him?(broke my heart) John is struggling with his injuries suffered from being in the Marines. He isn’t able to go out into the field like the other detectives and hates it.

When Shannon’s safety is at risk due to a stalker, John offers to stay with her for protection.
Will they find out who the stalker is? Will they give in to their attraction?

You’re the first person I’ve ever been with who doesn’t make me want to shoot somebody out of boredom -John

My emotions were all over the place, with some teary eyed moments. I feel these two were meant for each other and you could feel their connection on so many levels. The secondary characters were great and I was very happy with the ending.
The struggles that John went through trying to deal with his injuries is exactly what alot of our military go through everyday. To have this in a story brought some realism to it, kudos to J.M. Madden
