From USA Today best-selling author Willow Winters comes a heart-wrenching, edge-of-your-seat gripping, romantic suspense.

I ran from him, even though my heart knew better. Love was one thing, but survival another. I should have known he'd come for me. Men like him always get what they want. The temptation in his eyes, the heat of his touch...it's all still there, but his gaze is harsher now and his grasp unrelenting. He's not the boy I fell in love with, although pieces of what we once had are still there. I can feel it.

I know what he wants from me, and I know it comes with a steep price. I'll pay it though, if for no other reason than to touch him again. Just once more. I'll close my eyes and forget about the risks that come with this life and with him. I only hope he doesn't do the same.

“…the darker side of romance with epic twists of passion, lust, want, need, love, hate, and epic suspense!" (The Sass Nerd BlogNot)

My Heart to Give is the complete collection of the USA Today best-selling Hard to Love series.

Willow Winters has written a series of books that are so awesome I wish I could give 10 stars! I enjoyed hearing about the Cross brothers. The characters are all excellent. I can’t wait to find out what happens to Declan! The narration was over the top by Joe Arden and Samantha Cook. The book came to life with their telling.

I love the Hard to Love series the journey Seth and Laura take is not one for the faint of heart. These books are so emotional and beautifully written. They take you on a ride you won't soon forget. I love the suspense and no one does a cliffhanger quite like Willow Winters. The way book three ended had me biting my nails in anticipation for what was next. This love story is so raw and dark and I loved every minute of listening to it. Joe Arden and Samantha Cook were the perfect duo for this they really brought the series to life.

One Of My Favorite series!!!!

Not my Heart to Break provided an excellent opportunity allowing readers to enjoy the entire fantastic Hard to Love series all at once. It took me some time to finish the audio book because it was almost 22 hours long, and I truly enjoyed every second of it.

Story – 4 stars

Laura and Seth’s story was filled with suspense, passion, and unexpected twists. There were so many secrets and plot twists that kept me guessing. Their connection was intense and alluring. I was totally consumed by their gut-wrenching and emotional journey to their happily ever after

Audio – 4 stars

Joe Arden’s performance brought Seth to live. Samantha Cook’s performance was a little bland in comparison. But overall, great performances by the two artists.

A voluntary honest review on a complimentary audio copy of this book.

gut-wrenching romance filled with suspense

This was a great book with great narrator’s. Love the romance and the the hot scenes the suspense but the last 10 hours could’ve been shortened by a few hours. I had to fast forward because I was starting to get bored about that time. Other than that I would recommend the book

We enjoyed the book But

Not My Heart to Break is a collection of the Hard to Love series. By far my absolute favorite series by the talented and amazingly awesome storyteller W. Winters. What a ride!! Truly captivating! Buckle up buttercup because you’re in for one hell of a ride!! The narrators simply made this story come alive!!

Hard to Love
Hard to Love is breathtakingly beautiful! The story of Seth and Laura had me completely mesmerized. What an emotional listen. This book gave me all the feels! I laughed, I cried and most importantly I want more! This was truly a fast story, full of action and kept me on the edge of my seat! So thankful book 2 is out because I’d be lost if I didn’t know how this ends!! If you love a powerful, raw, absolutely mesmerizing read I HIGHLY suggest this one!! Be prepared to binge some awesomeness! Time to bring on Book 2!!!

Desperate to Touch
Desperate to Touch was the 2nd book to Hard to Love. It picked up right where book one left off. Seth and Laura's story continues to be just as thrilling and captivating as it was in the first book. I couldn't stop listening to this one as well. Once again this thrilling, heart pounding book left you needing to know what happens next. Bring on Book 3!!!

Tempted to Kiss
Let’s just start with I wasn’t ready!!! I simply was not ready for that ending!! This book just blew my mind!! I just finished and I totally did not see that coming!! What a ride!! Tempted to Kiss is the 3rd book in the Hard to Love series. Definitely recommend reading them in order. This series is like one big giant roller coaster with plenty of WTF moments!! And that ending though?!? What just happened?? Ohhh emmm geee!!! I can’t wait for Seth & Laura’s story to conclude in Easy to Fall, which is the final book in this series! I need it now! Like right now! How does this end?!? W. Winters what are you doing to me!!?? Just binged this entire series in less than a week!

I could not listen fast enough!! I’m an emotional wreck!! Book four can’t get here fast enough!!! What an epic explosive twist and turn of events. One absolutely intense ride!! So happy be on this journey with them. Beautifully written and heartbreakingly amazing as well!

I simply wasn’t ready! I’m still sitting here like did that just happen? This book should have came with a warning ... it’s about to smash your world and steal your breath away. Grab a condom for your heart because this book is about to F*ck your feelings!! Must read for every romance reader out here!!

Easy to Fall
Hello Book 4 in the Hard to Love series. And what a book it is!! Easy to Fall is the conclusion to Seth & Laura’s journey. What a thrill ride. I’m over here all in my feels over this one. I think this is Willow Winter’s best book yet. She absolutely destroyed me with this book. I couldn’t stop listening. I was truly captivated.

Truly captivating!

This is Seth's Story, it comes immediately after Irresistible Attraction.

I just have to say - I love this story. I do not want to spoil anything.

Marcus is still an anonymous threat lurking.

Everytime Joe Arden's Seth says "baby girl" you melt a little on the inside.

The last book will have you and all your emotions on edge. But it was so good and satisfying in the end. I love this one. So good as all the books are in one compilation.

This book series by Willow Winters covers a 13-year period in the lives of Seth, who is a member (later, the leader) of a ruthless mafia group; and Laura, whose father was a member of the same group until he was mysteriously killed when Laura was 16.

After the death of Laura’s father, Seth who is the most popular and good-looking guy at their high school, begins to look after her, taking her under his wing, spending time with her, and becoming a dear friend for reasons we do not yet understand.

After two years, Laura falls in love with Seth, but as dedicated as he is to her, he certainly cannot imagine himself in love with anyone. Despite this, a close and trusting bond forms between them, a bond that ties them together in one way or another for many years to come.

Each of the main characters has their share of personal traumas and problems, whether they are together or apart. As a couple, their problems are compounded by different career/life goals, mafia involvement, revenge-seekers, constant danger, and police investigators.

The series is very suspenseful. The books contain a great mix of crime drama, suspense thriller, mafia/mob crime, and dark romance genres, which would make the books a hit with most readers/listeners. We even get to spend some time with the gorgeous Cross brothers, who have their own series of Willow Winters books!

The hours I spent with this series were really fun and flew by. I highly recommend these books!!
