Derailed Hearts Book Review from N.N. Light's Book Heaven

This review for Derailed Hearts made my day!

"Derailed Hearts is a delightful contemporary romance which takes place on a train. Falling in love on a train is so romantic, especially when there is a sweet little girl playing matchmaker. What makes Derailed Hearts such a wonderful romance are the characters and the fact it’s forced proximity aka on a train. Ethan captured my heart from the opening scene with him talking on the phone with my matchmaking grandmother. He’s a single dad who’s dealing with a heartbreaking scenario with his young daughter. Tears formed in my eyes almost from the get-go. Jenn is also a tortured soul. My heart broke for her as well. The descriptive narration is also very emotional and tugged at my heartstrings. The setting is a train ride across Canada. Darlene Fredette nails the world-building and the train ride. It brought me back to when my husband and I took the train to the East Coast almost twenty years ago. The romance is slow-burn with some much emotion. I couldn’t read fast enough. One of my favorites in the series, Derailed Hearts will steal your heart."
My Rating: 5++ stars. Reviewed by Nancy.
