Another fantastic read

I am really enjoying this series a whole lot. It gives me just enough of all the tropes I love without being overly angsty and it's exactly the kind of book I can sink into and forget the whole world until it's over. This is the story of Easton (the brother of the hero in book 3) and his older female employee Tatum. Tatum is on the run from an abusive relationship and this is dealt with with the utmost of care. They are forced together after an attack on the surf shop that they work at. They are both fighting their attraction to each other for different yet obvious reasons. This was so good. Easton is so tender and understanding and let's Tatum go at her own pace, and no matter what he has her back. And Tatum is learning to love not only a younger man, but herself and we love to see that! I volunteered to listen and review a complimentary copy of this. All opinions are my own.

Easton & Tatum

The Heart of Us the 4th book in the Love in Isolation series.
We’ve meet Easton in Piper and Tristan’s book and it was easy to fall in love with how nice and easygoing he was.
Now in his own book we get to know him a little better and he was all that and more. Tatum is 9 years older than Easton and is a survivor. Both together are amazing characters and bring the best out of the other.
As per usual Andi Ardnt and Tor Thom are brilliant voicing the characters bringing all parts of their personalities to life.

Loved this!!

The Heart of Us is the latest book from the Love in Isolation series by Kennedy Fox. The Heart of Us follows Easton and Tatum’s story while are isolated together at Easton’s family’s beach house. Here is where the slow burn attraction begins! Tatum is hesitate to trust and open up again as she has come from an abusive relationship and Easton tries to do everything in his power to protect her and change her mindset on how she thinks about herself. Easton is definitely older than the age that he is and is very mature. I’m not normally a fan of age gap romances but I really truly enjoyed this story. I don’t believe Kennedy Fox has written characters like these 2 before so while its something new for the writing duo, they nailed it.

Easton and Tatum!

Tatum managed to escape her abusive husband and relocated to Florida where she has created a new life for herself however she knows if her husband finds her it could all be over in the blink of an eye. When she arrived not only did Easton give her a job but an apartment as well however it all comes crashing down when her husband comes to town looking for her and she knows it isn’t a coincidence when Easton’s shop catches fire.

Easton has been attracted to Tatum from their first meeting but when he learns about her past it only attracts him more and he is determined to protect her. They retreat to his family’s beach home until the threat can be dealt with and he hopes that the house can work the same romantic magic as it did for his brother.

Ethan is exactly who Tatum needs in her life as with every word and action he shows her that she is beautiful inside and out and helps her reclaim the woman she was meant to be. I enjoyed the performance of the narrators as they brought out the swoony romance and the suspense of the story.

a sweet slow burn

Tatum and Easton were great together. Easton was amazing - excellent book boyfriend!! Lots of sweet, relationship building. Small suspense storyline with the ex-husband. Glad there were no cougar comments and if the ages were reversed I'm not sure it would have been called age-gap. It was a slow, slow burn. Given the main plot it fit but it might have been a bit too slow in the middle for me.

The narration was good. They are both pros and Andi Arndt's voice fit a lot better for Tatum than it did for Piper (previous book) but I personally find her overused in the audiobook world.

Heart warming age-gap romance

Once again the narrators bring the characters to life...
We met Easton in book 3, but get to learn more about him. And he's the perfect mix of sweet and protective alpha male. Tatum is a strong and intelligent woman who is a complete fighter that's survived a terrible past. Will the age-gap and work status prevent them from getting their happy ever after? Expect lots of passion, family, love, suspense, laughter and more throughout. Enjoy this captivating romance!

great listening

Tatum and Easton were an absolute delight to listen to. It may have been a slow burn, but it was an inferno once that fire ignited!

The chemistry between the two of them was unmistakable—their connection, electric—undeniably mutual.

I loved the cameo from Tristan and Piper, how protective and supportive they both were, and how Tatum was welcomed into the fold instantly.

Once again, Kennedy Fox have demonstrated their inclusive nature.

I don't want to ruin anything for anyone so let's just say: it's nice to see this family dynamic encompassed in such a beautiful and genuine way.

Andi and Tor did a fabulous job narrating.

My Thoughts on The Heart of Us

I loved this older woman/younger man romance. It also had a touch of suspense and forced proximity thrown in. It addressed pregnancy and loss, abuse in many forms, and so many other topics, but addressed them in a way that felt delicate and respectful. Tatum and Easton were so easy to like just as individual characters but them together was in turns adorable and off the charts steamy. I loved the growth and independence Tatum experienced after leaving her abusive relationship. You could tell how she’d grown when she thought back on her behaviors and mentality when she was with her ex. And of course, was happy when she opened herself to the possibility of finding love again. I was already excited about Easton from the previous book of the series but fell for him even more in this one. I loved how he not only appreciated Tatum for who she was but also helped her have new experiences as well. This was just a good listen overall and only made better by the excellent narration. Andi Arndt and Tor Thom felt like excellent fits for both these characters. They both brought a great energy and I enjoyed listening no matter which of them was performing.
