Imperfect Heart (Combat Hearts Book 4)
By Tarina Deaton
I have loved reading this series and this book is no different!! This author had become one of my favorites, I have truly enjoyed reading every story and have become invested in each of these wonderful characters. I am so glad to see that the characters from the other books make appearances in each story. Zoe and Tim’s story is heartwarming, hilarious and so much more. Zoe is a strong and independent woman who finds herself in embarrassing situations whenever her hot neighbor Tim is around. I found myself not only smiling but actually laughing out loud at times. They have both been hurt in the past and are apprehensive about having someone in their life. If you want to read an awesome romantic story and find out what happens between these two, this is a must read! I highly recommend this book and the entire series.

Imperfect Heart by Tarina Deaton is the fourth book in her Combat Series and this series just keeps getting better and better. Following the story of Zoey and Tim, I couldn’t read this book fast enough. These two made me laugh, cry and fall in love with them over and over throughout this book. Having read the other three books in this series, I had high expectations for this installment and Deaton did not let me down in the least. The chemistry between these two from the very beginning was enough to make it so that I couldn’t look away. You could feel the connection between them from page one. If you are looking for a great book, and series, this is one that you need to pick up today!

Imperfect Heart was a great 5 star read and book four in the Combat Hearts series.

I was pulled in right from the beginning, with a LOL scene with Zoe and a raccoon. On top of that the way she ends up meeting her neighbor Tim was classic. Best start ever in a book.
Zoe has moved to Haven Springs to start over and open a bookstore.

Tim is a police officer and I fell for him right away. When he got a call from his neighbor about a possible suspicious person, he definitely didn’t plan to find Zoe in the predicament she was. There is something about his new neighbor that has got his attention.

Will Zoe’s bookstore be a great addition to Haven Springs? Will Zoe and Tim have a HEA?

There is so much more to this great read. All of the secondary characters were great.
The chemistry between these two was off that charts. Tim was very supportive of Zoe and he had an alpha side to him that brings us some steamy moments. The bantering had me LOL at times. Tarina’s writing is great, she pulls you right in and you won’t want to stop until your done. I look forward to reading more from her. If your looking for a fun series that has lots of different elements, this is the one for you.

Imperfect Heart is the fourth book in the Combat Hearts series by Tarina Deaton. This is one of the best series I have read in a long time. This book can be read as a standalone with no problem feeling like you are missing part of the story. However, I recommend you read the whole series because all of the books are excellent reads. This book is Zoe and Tim’s story. The book had me hooked from the very first page and kept me reading long past me bedtime because I just couldn’t put it down until I read the last page. I love Zoe with her feisty attitude and her strong nature even in the tough situations. Tim is a police officer who finds his life turned inside out when Zoe moves in next door to him. The chemistry Zoe and Tim share is white hot of the charts. Like I said above, this is one of my favorite series and I hope Ms. Deaton continues to write more installments in the future. If you like romance, I highly recommend you add this to your. Reading list.

Imperfect Heart is book 4 of the Combat Heart Series. I absolutely love this author! Imperfect Heart has left me wanting To read more of her books. Her writing allows me to easily imagine what I am reading. The moment I started reading this book I had an instant connection with the characters that she creates and I can never put down one of her books until I have finished. I LOVED Zoe and Tim! They were both fantastic characters and I was completely captivated by their story. Zoe was so lovely; I loved her clumsiness and the fact that she got so nervous and just babbled on and on especially when it came to Tim. Here was just something about her that was so warm and genuine and you know you would love to have a friend like her. Tim was everything I have come to expect from one of her leading men; he was hot, sexy, protective and definitely swoon-worthy!! Tim and Zoe’s first meeting will probably stick in my mind of one of the funniest ever! I loved it! It definitely set the tone for the rest of the story! I recommend Imperfect Heart.

I haven’t been so consumed with a book in a while and i just was completely consumed with this story!
I haven’t started a book laughing in some time and this did just that. But it had so many sides of every emotion throughout.
Zoe and Tim had such a dynamic between them and when they finally took the jump, i was so happy!
I loved to see previous characters from other books in this series, but this can be read as a standalone.
I cannot wait for more from this author.

Imperfect Heart, Combat Hearts Book 4, by Tarina Deaton is a well written romantic comedy. This story of Zoe and Tim is absolutely hilarious. I thoroughly enjoyed the way the story began and the hi-jinks that follow make this a great novel. Zoe is a strong female character in this story, but she can’t deny that she needs help at some points. The question is, how much can she take and from whom. Then, adding Tim into the mix, and he has a protective streak a mile wide. Their personalities clash, but at the same time, the magnetism between them is undeniable from the beginning. This was a fun story throughout.

ByTarina Deaton
My Rating: 5 of 5 stars

Imperfect Heart (Combat Hearts #4) by Tarina Deaton was the perfect ending to this wonderfully amazing series.

I love this series, and I’m saddened that this is the last instalment. But all good things must come to a end, even if we don’t want them to. I must say this book, was just as strong as the others, and it being that last had that added closer that let you feeling like, these characters are going to be okay. I will say that though this is considered a standalone. I highly suggest reading the other books, so you can get a feel for this world, and of course, avoid spoilers.

While reading this book I was sitting here like, did Tarina Deaton just predict my future? Confused, well I am a serving member (Canadian Navy) and I currently have 12 years in, and am releasing in the next year. My plan is to somehow just surround myself with books and make money. So yeah, I drew some strong comparison between myself and our MC. Now I just need a sexy cop to come “save me” and we’d be all good. .jk.jk...

Okay enough about that, let’s get into this story.

I very much like Zoe, and as I have said in my reviews of the other books in this series, you can tell it was written by someone who has served. The slang, the interactions, and just in the way Zoe acted. I believe I have said this before, but the military, no matter what country you serve in, does a number on your social skills. And the whole, “I can save myself”, is also a strong trait we all seem to share.

Tim, my dream guy, why the hell are you fiction? lol.. But in all seriousness, he was a great character and fit well with Zoe. Strong, sassy, and there, he was there for her, even when she was fighting him, he was there. Sure he was a bit alpha-ish, but he’s a cop, I think that’s part of their job requirements.

Overall this book, was perfect. It was a perfect addition to a amazing series, and it was that perfect ending that tied up everything, leaving you feeling all gooey and happy on the inside. So please, please take my super, super, high recommendation and my gold stamp of approval, that you will be captured by this truly heart melty, feels snapping read.

Happy Reading

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Well, I most certainly did not see the side-splitting laughs that were to come from this novel. I have read the previous Combat Hearts novels, and really they were good novels, but this one takes the top favorite for me. I was excited, because this was a perfect conclusion to the series for me. My only complaint… It ended, lol. You do not have to have read the other books in the series to enjoy this one, they can be standalones. However, it would increase your reading pleasure.

Zoe was so relatable for me. She has that quirky awkwardness about her. She talks a lot when she doesn’t know what to say, much like myself. I think the only thing we don’t have in common is the fact that she was in the military. I love her love for books, and that she goes for her dream of opening a bookstore after she retires from her military career. I guess the other difference is that she is a youngest child and I am the oldest, but those seem to have similar characteristics as well.

Then there is Tim, the handsome strong cop. He is drawn to Zoe and wants to protect her. Well Zoe being the strong, independent and ex-militant woman she is, doesn’t need this help and protector. Cue hilarious jokes and side comments. Especially when feelings are introduced to the mix! There is a perfect balance of comedy, romance, and just enough of a twist to keep you on the edge of your seat that you will be reading this well past your bedtime to find out how things will end for these two. Like I said, I am sad to see Combat Hearts come to a close, but I look forward to seeing what else is to come from Tarina Deaton in the near future! Thanks for the great series!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the second book I have read by Deaton. Even though it is the 4th book in the series it can be read as a standalone. Zoe and Tim’s friends are from the first three books and are mentioned in this story, but you do not have to read those stories to understand this one. Should you read them? Yes! Tarina Deaton is quickly becoming a favorite new to me author.

Imperfect Heart is super cute, super fun and super sexy. Tim is a small-town police officer while Zoe is ex-military. Zoe’s family sucks. Plain and simple they do not have her best interest at heart. Her best friend Elba is exactly what a best friend should be, caring, fun, and smart. Even the old lady across the street, Mrs. Wilson, seems to care more about Zoe than her own family.
While reading this story I laughed out loud, got a little teary eyed and found myself nodding my head in agreement many times.

“It was…nice. She didn’t have an issue with being taken care of. At least, not in the sense that she was helpless or wanted someone to provide for her, but having a guy who worried and wanted to make sure she was safe…? Yeah…that was hot.”

I highly recommend this story and can’t wait to read the others in this series.

5++++++++ Stars

I’m going to start right off with…Definitely one of my favorite books so far this year, actually maybe even further back than that. I’m not sure without looking how many of this authors books I have read but I know I have felt the same way after every one of them.

I honestly didn’t know if I was going to make it past 10% because I was laughing so hard at so many things and I couldn’t see through the tears. I really sincerely wish I could find the words to explain what it is I love so much about reading this authors books. It’s the way she words conversations between characters, the one liners, the snarky comebacks, they all just feel so real. I sincerely did not want the book to end, and even as I write this review I want to read it all over again, actually I want to make sure I have all of this series and read them all back to back.

I loved this storyline, Zoe is absolutely one of my all time favorite female leads, she was so strong, and determined yet still had the softness to her personality, and absolutely hilarious, I dont even know which part of her story had me laughing the hardest, and then she still had that side to her that melted my heart, and then in comes Tim….**heavy sigh** we all need a Tim, he was everything I want in my male leads

I’m not going to retell the story in this review, Im just going to tell you you have to read this book, actually read the whole series, the people from the previous books follow through the series and having all those stories are a definite must.

This authors talent for words has her in a class with the best of the best in my opinion.

Can not wait for more!! Loved it!

Imperfect Heart (Combat Hearts Book 4)Imperfect Heart by Tarina Deaton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Imperfect Heart is the fourth book in the Combat Hearts series by Tarina Deaton and it was just as amazing as the first three in the series.

Zoe has moved to Haven Springs after being discharged from the service. She is excited to start her new life as a civilian, a small business owner and a single woman and to be back in the same town as her best friend as well as close to her siblings. But life has a funny way of leading you down a path you never expected.

Tim a police officer in Haven Springs is just a good person. He was burned by an ex wife and decided he would just protect and serve.

There were a few parts where I laughed out loud and startled my dogs. The beginning with the raccoon was probably my favorite moment.

I am totally in love with this series and already looking forward to the next book.

Acevedo is finally doing something for herself. Opening an independent bookstore in Haven Springs, North Carolina is a major undertaking, but Zoe has a plan and a list. What she doesn’t have is time for distractions like her interfering family, her cheating ex, or the sexy neighbor who always manages to find her in the most awkward situations.

As a Haven Springs police officer, Tim Larken has dedicated his life to protecting and serving. He learned the hard way that the damsel in distress doesn’t always want to be saved, but somehow he manages to help his curvy new neighbor out of one tight spot after another.

Their attraction is undeniable, but when true disaster strikes will that be enough for two Imperfect Hearts to heal together?

Imperfect Heart is the final book in the Combat Hearts series. It can be read as a stand-alone. Guaranteed HEA and no cliffhangers

Imperfect Heart is the fourth book in the Combat Hearts Series by Tarina Deaton. This series really is soooo good, and just seems to get better with each new instalment. I was excited to get my hands on this book, but also a little sad to discover that it’s the final instalment in this fantastic series. Although this can be read as a standalone, I really recommend the other books in this series too- as they are wonderful stories in their own rights.
I had high expectations for this book, especially after learning it was the last in the series, so I am incredibly happy to say that Ms. Deaton didn’t let me down- it was every bit as good as I hoped it would be. Ms. Deaton certainly knows how to entice her readers into a story and hold their interest the whole way through. It is very easy to become emotionally invested in her character/s and their wonderful stories- and this book was no different.
Zoe Acevedo has left the Air Force to fulfil her dream of opening her own bookstore. She’s strong, determined, and quite independent- but definitely has no filter. This is her ‘new beginning’ after 13 years in the military- leaving her cheating ex, and family problems behind. She’s frustrated that her hunky neighbour keeps finding her in awkward situations. Too bad she doesn’t have time for any distractions, even one as sexy as he is.
Tim Larkin is a local police officer and brother of Jase (Book #1). He won me over right away, he’s so swoony. When his sexy new neighbour moved in, he didn’t expect to have to come to her rescue. But he’s just doing his job, right? Protect and serve- that’s what he does, right? Plus, there is a mutual attraction simmering between them? Will their chemistry finally ignite? What happens when disaster strikes? What does the future hold? You’ll need to read this superb story to find out.
Wonderful!!!

Thank you, Ms. Deaton!

I lost the count of how many times I laughed and chuckled while reading this book. The situations that Zoe found herself in are just hilarious and of course it’s even more funny when a hot man like Tim is around to comment on them. But oh, her comebacks are delicious and full of sass!!

Two people who were married before but have been hurt in the past. They crave that person that will be for them through the ups and down and they can cuddle with after a long day. However they are chucking it on their busy lives, pretending they are okay just like this rather than him saving another damsel in distress and her to go trough cheating again. But when it’s bound to happen it will happen and these two will have the help of all their friends to make it happen 🙂

Zoe as a heroine is amazing, so brave and positive and of course feisty!! Tim is her perfect match *smirk* Great secondary characters as well!

IMPERFECT HEART is Book 4 of the Combat Heart Series. It is a stand-alone but you really should read the other stories in the series also to find out how fabulous each and every friend is.

I love this series and it just keeps getting better and better. I hope it continues on with Elba’s story – Oh my gosh, and Kevin!! We need Kevin’s story!!! The thing I especially like in this series is that the author is not afraid to write strong, independent women who do not NEED men in their life to make them complete – they WANT them in their life. That’s an amazing place to be and I wish more people understood that – real and fictional.

As with the other stories in this series, the characters are well developed and are mature and able to speak their truth eloquently. The characters are family – some by blood and others by choice. This is a multi layered story that is told in 3rd person. It’s real and and it’s genuine. I would absolutely want to be friends with all of the women in this series and the story makes me want to go to my local independent bookstore for a cup of coffee and a book.

This is a quick and easy read that I was very fulfilled with.

I absolutely recommend this book, this series and this author.

A super cute short read that was fun. Tim and Zoe were a fun couple. I don’t understand how Tim put up with Zoe’s need to make list for everything. I mean she put him on a to do list lol. I liked how the author didn’t make everything so dramatic. The moments that caused a separation seemed flawless and more natural. Some people are meant to separate but find a way back together. I like that they knew their flaws and could adjust for their partner. I wish finding someone to share your life with was as easy as reading it in a book. I really liked this author and can’t wait to read some more. Hopefully Elba gets a story next. I really liked her.

The story Imperfect Heart (Combat Hearts Book 4) by Tarina Deaton is an amazing romance book that I loved reading. It hooked me in from the very beginning and I didn’t want to put it down until I had read the final page. I loved reading about the characters of Zoe Acevedo and Tim Larken. I found Zoe to be a brave and independent person as she is going to open her own bookstore. As I love books it is a place that I would visit. She is also smart, determined, and passionate. That passion is for books but also for Tim. Tim is a police officer. He does his job well and helps others. He is helping Zoe out the first time he sees her. He finds himself unable to stop thinking of her. He is intrigued by her. She is attracted to him as well. There is chemistry between them and they soon find themselves giving in to the passion and desire that has been sparked between them. Zoe still has doubts and fears about her business. Tim is someone who encourages her and is behind what she is doing. Will Zoe’s business be a success? Will Tim and Zoe find themselves in a relationship? Sometimes communication becomes strained. Will they make sure that each one knows how the other feels? Will they find happiness together? Read this book to find out. There are other characters that I enjoyed reading about in this story. There is a lot of bantering back and forth between Zoe and Tim as well as the other characters. It is quite humorous at times. Had me with a smile on my face and laughing out loud. There are also some steamy scenes included which will make the temperature in the room rise. Zoe and Tim are characters that I grew to love with each chapter that I read. This story is wonderfully written and one that I highly recommend reading.

Imperfect Heart (Combat Hearts Book 4) by Tarina Deaton ​is the fourth book in the Combat Hearts series, but can be read as a standalone. Imperfect Heart is a contemporary romance with an engaging storyline and amazing chemistry. It is also full of suspense and intrigue, laughter and love and sadness that pulls you into the story and tugs on your heart. I laughed out loud at Zoe’s antics and situations she found herself in and was so drawn to the characters that I was unable to put the book down, I had to read it all in one sitting. Lets not forget our male hero who is endearing and funny and will make your heart melt. This is one story that should not be missed.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this story!!! It started out making me laugh my rear off. That just kept that up through the story along with a sexy romance and a bit of danger. So many unpredictable things happen. Tarina Deaton never disappoints but I think this is my favorite of hers!

Zoe is wild! And unpredictable and would be so much fun! I loved her from the beginning and it didn’t stop. She made me laugh and envy her. She opens a outstanding bookstore. Has a crazy family that interferes as often as possible in her life. Then meets the next door neighbor and ….whoosh life changes.

The relationships between the familial characters is a ton a fun to read. I guess I should say even the besties are a blast. I just enjoy the heck out of these secondary characters! Tim and Jase (brothers) are so funny picking on each other. Then Bree gets dropped into the mix. LOL! Elba and Zoe have a fifteen year friendship so….you know…anything goes with them. Be prepared to smile.

This book made me laugh, had a nice romance along with an element of danger. The writing flows and easily kept my interest. It’s not necessary to read the other books but I’m telling you….It enhances the enjoyment of the series since they all show back up.
Another Showstopper!
