My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Slow Burn: An Enemies to Lovers Romance (Breathing Hearts Book 2) by A.K. MacBride is a sweet, sad and funny story. A beachfront cottage and a sexy but grumpy neighbour. This is a heart-breaking and heart-warming tale where an unlikely pair who can’t stand each other but are attracted to each other navigate one another. There is a lot of emotions in this story and both of our characters have had tragedy and loss in their lives, but can they come out the other side in one piece? It is told in dual POV which gives it more depth and understanding of the characters. The true hero in this story is Fugly who will melt your heart and have you laughing.

Slow Burn is the second book in the Breathing Hearts series by A.K MacBride. This is the first book that I have read by Ms. MacBride, so I was interested to see what she had to offer. I like a good slow burn romance and the premise sounded quite promising, so I soon found myself with a copy of my own, ready to explore between the covers.
What I found was a wonderful story full of emotion, self-doubt, pain, starting over, self-discovery, chemistry, sizzle, romance, and hope.
Adam hides his pain behind a gruff and grumpy exterior. His past is a painful burden that weighs heavily on his soul. Maddie’s dreams of a career in dancing- but has gotten a little stuck in her small-town life. Adam pushes people away using rudeness as a way of ensuring no one gets too close. But he wasn’t prepared for the spark of life that Maddie brings into his stagnant and moody world. Will Maddie be able to break down his defences enough to take a chance on love? Or will insecurity, pain, and self-doubt destroy any possibility of happiness?
Like I said earlier, this is a slow burn romance- and at times this story felt extra slow. There were moments of frustration where I wanted to shake these two and tell them to get their act together. But thankfully this didn’t detract too much from my overall enjoyment of the story.

Thank you, A.K MacBride!

Slow Burn is book two in the Breathing Hearts series by A.K. Macbride. The pendulum swung in every emotional direction in this story. There was humour, sadness, tension, conflict, and a whole plethora of feels for a reader to bask in. The story was engaging and addictive. The characters were lovable and ridiculously entertaining. This story made me deliriously happy and kept me on edge for hours. I totally immersed myself in this vibrant cast and got lost in the journey. A stunning addition to a series that is becoming a passion of mine. 5 stars.

I enjoyed this enemies to friends romance story. This is a new author for me which I enjoyed being pulled into the story from the beginning by the characters. I look forward to seeing what is next for this author. The author’s use of details gave the story not only a realistic feel but also made it come to life. I enjoyed how the characters are connectable and made the story engaging. This is a fast paced story that I had a hard time putting down. It is an easy, fun and entertaining story. There is a new neighbor in the neighborhood. He is hot, steamy but he is also full of attitude and rude. How hot will things get with these characters? Will someone get burned? I enjoyed the growth and chemistry throughout the story. I really enjoyed this story and what the characters brought to the story. I highly recommend this book.

My new neighbor ticks all the right boxes.

Tall – check.

Muscular – check.

Tatted – double check.

Until he opens his mouth.

Adam is grumpy, rude, and obnoxious as hell.

And I really should tell him exactly where he can shove his insults.

Instead, I bite my tongue.

He intrigues me, and I can’t fight the need I have to find out what caused the pain so evident in his dark eyes.

Soon the thick, hungry flames surrounding Adam consume me.

I should’ve known better.

Because when you play with fire, you’re bound to get burned.
