Michael’s Heart by Lori Thomas Harrington was an emotional and romantic read. I loved following Colbie and literally cried following her short time in the between. Michael was wonderful. I loved the amazing character development and scenery in this novel. The story easily flowed and kept my attention. At no point was I bored with this story and literally could not put it down. It was definitely an emotional rollercoaster of a read but I highly recommend it.

Emotional Mess is what I was after reading this book. Michael’s Heart by Lori Thomas Harrington was a little different than my normal romances but the great way to see how music impacts some peoples life. But I was stuck to my kindle what to know what was going to happen to Colbie. The mother/daughter relationship between Colbie and Lyric was an amazing part of the story; reminds me too much of my own relationship with my mother. This quote “It’s not what you look at, it’s what you see” is something that will stay with me. Highly recommend this story to every woman who loves to read.

Another great new author and book. I was really hooked from the first page. I found that the author had quite a unique concept for the story. I found myself getting lost in the story. The author has a way of bringing the supernatural into the real life that blends the story and really creates it.
I really found Colbie’s character to be endearing and I found myself having a bit of a tug at my heartstrings as the story unfolded. I found that her whole life was shaped by her new zest for life. Her goal to really e is just a great story line. I really enjoyed this book and I found that the author draws you in and keeps you hooked. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

Michael’s Heart grabbed my attention from the synopsis. As an amateur musician, I’ve always associated music with emotion and often judge a piece on what emotions and how intense those emotions are. While Colbie, Lyric, and other characters are all important, it seemed like there were too many aspects to the plot right off the bat. You’ve got the competition, the song with missing lyrics, and Colbie’s accident all within the first chapter. As you read on, things don’t get crazy tangled or too much more complicated but the structuring put me off.
That being said, I enjoyed Colbie’s desperate search for what holds her soul together while also threatening to tear her apart at the seams. If you get confused at the beginning, don’t give up. The wrap up is worth it.

Michael’s Heart by Lori Thomas Harrington is an emotional contemporary romance read. The author uses music perfectly to tell Colbie’s traumatic yet hopeful story and share her life with us. I really liked this read and have already recommended it to a friend!
This is one of those ‘journey’ books. We follow Colbie through so many significant events in her life that you’re really able to connect with her. After a tragic accident leaves her fighting for her life, Colbie learns that there is more to death than so many people believe. While I know many people fell for Michael as soon as we are introduced to him, I’ll admit it took me a little longer; he just seemed too perfect! Their instant connection was fun to read and when Colbie was miraculously brought back to the real world, I could feel her pain at losing Michael so quickly. So when she meets Will and his daughter, things get complicated. And oh man, did I love this! This is not you typical romance read and I think that’s what made it so refreshing and addictive. I ended up reading this in one sitting, as I just couldn’t bear to leave Colbie and her struggles alone!
Music plays a huge part in this story. If that’s your kind of thing, this is a must read. I love a music-based romance, but this exceeded all my expectations. Colbie is linked to music so deeply and this connection is really what drives this book. There is so much emotion packed into such a short read that you need to be prepared for some ups and downs. When the truth is finally realised at the end of the book prepare yourself; I was a real mix of emotions! I loved the author’s writing style and will definitely be looking at more of her work. If you like your romance with added music and hope, this is for you!

I give Michael’s Heart by Lori Thomas Harrington, 4 stars.
Music is Colbie’s life. She feels so much from it. Besides her daughter, it is the love of her life. But she still feels like a part of her is missing. Then her heart stops after a tragic accident and she meets the man she never realized she needed. She wants to stay with him, but he tells her she has much more to do, she has to go back. Can she thrive with her music and family and friends or is she just waiting for the end?
This was an interesting story. It is very moving, you may be teary-eyed at least a few times. It is also very well written. It is obvious the author poured her heart into this story. You will definitely see things differently once reading this. There is usually a reason people act as they do. You may even learn something you never knew. Colbie is a very strong lead character. She has had much happen to her, but she has survived. As much as I like Colbie, I would love to see more of the other characters that interested me so much in a possible series.
If you like moving books about life and love, this book is for you! But don’t forget the tissues!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Michael’s Heart is an emotional story. You are going to cry at least once so have the tissues nearby. There isn’t too much to say regarding story line or it will ruin the outcome for you. I will say that the pertinent characters are memorable and are drawn together by the common thread of music as a soul language. I wasn’t really sure what to feel when I finished the book. Part of me recognizes the bright part of the ending, but it has an overtone of sadness as well. I suppose that makes the story more like real life when it comes down to it. Regardless, if you are in the mood to feel a myriad of emotions in a short period of time, check out this story.

Michael’s Heart by Lori Thomas Harrington is a beautifully written story that had me hooked from chapter one until the end. Colbie is compassionate, strong, and very smart. One thing that Colbie always loved was music and when her heart stopped on the operating table she entered a new world. Colbie meets Michael. Here she hears the music loud and clear. When she awakened in the recovery room, she needs to gain her life back and once again her the music that always filled her.
This book was beautiful and grabbed at my heart strings. I felt like I could close my eyes and see two characters that will stay inside my heart for a long time. The author has given us a simply beautiful, emotional, journey about life and love. I give this book 5 stars and highly recommend this book!

This one is a doozy. The way the story is written and the characters is fantastic.
Colbie dies, and when she does, she meets Michael. When she wakes back up she has to figure out her next steps in life. Colbie starts to struggle with finding her music because of her longing for Michael. Although it is painful for her to leave Michael she can feel him in her heart. He gives her the inspiration to write. Colbie meets another man eventually and starts to develop feelings for him, but in the back of her mind, she can’t forget Michael.
This story has everything you could want in a book, romance, tears and happiness. I would definitely recommend this book!

Michael’s Heart by Lori Harrington was a great emotional read. I would give this book a 4 out of 5 stars. I loved the character development and the theme that played a huge part throughout the story. I felt Colbie’s love and her challenges really resonated with my core. I loved the message of love and how powerful our craft, in Colbie’s case music, can be in making sure we are living our best life. The pace was very mellow and the story told thoroughly. While my impatient nature would have loved to rush through everything. I believe that Lori did exactly what these characters needed to be fully developed.

Colbie is a strong woman who has gone through some dark times in her life and music is the beacon of light out of the darkness.

Michael’s Heart was a 4 star read for me. I have never read any other books by this author and wasn’t sure how I was going to feel about this book. I enjoyed reading this book. The characters were all loved and I feel like they all belonged. Some authors throw characters into the story and they have no purpose. This book has many well liked, well developed characters.
Colbie is looking to start up a dream. She wants to build a safe place for women to make life choices that will impact them for the rest of their lives. When she gets a letter in the mail from the staff at Hightower Television Network, her life changes. She nearly died that day while driving to visit her best friend but, she had a guardian angel. From that moment on, everything revolved around him.
When Colbie shows up at HTN for the final part of the contest she meets a few people who will become very important people in her life. The Hightower’s become like family even though they don’t share the same blood.
I love how the rare blue forget-me-nots always show up and will continue to show up to let Colbie
know she is never alone.

Then, something miraculous happened. In an inex-plicable new world, Colbie comes face to face with Michael and she realized that she has always heard the music.

Will fate and love strike the right chords for Michael and Colbie?
Born and reared in Mississippi, I love the South and all the charms it borders provide.
My debut novel, The Point, has received raving reviews on Amazon and Goodreads worldwide. I have been humbled and overwhelmed by the outpouring support I’ve received. I am excited about the release of my latest novel, Michael’s Heart, and hope it is celebrated as enthusiastically as my last.
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my husband of 33 years on our farm, doing anything with my three adult children, and playing with my amazing grands. I also enjoy hanging out with my friends, writing music, community theater and am always plotting my next novel with coffee in hand.
One of my favorite quotes is by Douglas Everett.
“There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some that face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.”
I am a firm believer that everyone has a dream placed inside them, and life is too short not to make that dream a reality.

Michael’s Heart was a great 5 star read.
Colbie has a love of music, so much so that it affects her deeply and is a passion of hers. She is one of three that has qualified to win a contest that will give her money to fund a charity that she has created. After a bad accident Colbie ends up in surgery, while out she meets “the one” but he’s on the other side. She realizes that Michael is her soul mate and commits her heart to him.
It’s not what you look at, Love. It’s what you see.
As the story moves forward, Colbie gets a dream job of writing jingles for a TV company. She also meets Will and his daughter. These two end up becoming a big part of Colbie’s life and she starts to grow close to Will. But her heart belongs to Michael.
There is so much more to this great read. I was shocked to learn just who Michael was and there were several other twists and turns I didn’t see coming. I really liked all of the characters, they added a great element to the story. This story really makes you think about the other side and if we have someone watching over us. This was an emotional read, once I started I couldn’t put it down until I was done. This is my second read from Lori and I look forward to reading more. 1-click and get started today.
