Foolish Hearts by Synithia Williams

4.0

This is book 4 in Synithia Williams’ Jackson Falls series. There are storylines that run throughout the series, so I recommend experiencing them all and in order – starting with the novella, The Promise of a Kiss.

Ashiya & Russell have both been background characters since book 1. Ashiya is a cousin to the main family and has been happily outside the drama of Robidoux Holdings. Russell has been working his way up the company while avoiding Ashiya after she hurt him when their relationship ended.

Williams’ gives these two an epic second chance romance as well as making both their dreams come true, even if not in the way they expected. There’s some compelling side stories going on here: the mysterious disappearance of Russell’s brother, embezzlement, and Ashiya’s parents self-centeredness.

I loved the way it all unfolded as well as the pacing of the story. This continues to be a fun and dramatic series on top of steamy romance.

Narration:
I continue to adore Adenrele Ojo’s performances. She does a great job with all the characters, the southern accents, and the various emotions. It’s a treat to listen to her.
