Heart of the Sun by Mia Sheridan is a dystopian romance novel. Childhood friends Tuck Mattice and Emily Swanson, torn apart by life’s circumstances, reunite after 13 years when Emily, now a pop star named Nova, hires Tuck, an ex-con, as her bodyguard. When disaster strikes, they’re forced to survive together in a dangerous, post-apocalyptic world while facing their past and finding their way back to each other.First, let me say that I love Mia Sheridan’s work. I’ve read almost all of her books and she’s one of my favorite authors. That said, this one wasn’t my favorite of hers. I understand why some readers didn’t connect with it. It’s very different from what she usually writes. This book is more about survival than romance, which caught some people off guard.There is romance here, but it’s very light and really only builds near the end. Most of the story is about them surviving and finding their way back home while figuring out what really happened.Even if this wasn’t her best book for me, I’m still glad I read it. The story was interesting enough to keep me turning the pages, and I’ll always pick up whatever Mia writes next. She’s still one of my all-time favorite authors.✨ Just my thoughts, if you’re curious, give it a try and see how it feels for you.
This book was incredible, the subject matter was so scary at first, but as you get into the story it all made sense. This is a must read if like a really good adventure.
From chapter 1-28, I would rate the story as a 2. Emily was exceedingly annoying and the pace was super slow. However, from chapter 29-epilogue, I would rate it as a 4. The second-half made up for the first-half. The second half exhibited more of the author’s signature of writing and of course, the author did not disappoint, the story is beautiful and filled with forgiveness, redemption, revelation, and love.
Well Mia this too was a great book. Sad, but so full of humanity. But full of evil too. It was an adventure beyond belief. How many would or could endure this situation. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger my mom always said. Although fiction, this story makes you think of survival, and if you could, if something happened today. Great job Mia!
Mia gets me every single time. This world needs many more Tucks in it.I refuse to spoil a story, ever. Suffice it to say, this journey is everything!
