Square Hearts is an emotional Women's Fiction novel about loss, lust, and love. See why Readers' Favorite says, Julee Balko has mastered the ability to grab her readers by the heartstrings.
The heart has many sides. But people have even more.
Nicola's husband always said hearts have four sides. But ever since the night her world was shattered when he died in a car accident, Nicola Cooper can't find a side that loves herself, let alone connects with her neurodivergent daughter.
Determined to start living again, Nicola finds herself in a number of precarious situations. Her muffin-making neighbor turns out to be more narcissistic than nice. She's getting lessons in lust from her daughter's violin teacher. And every margarita night gets her closer to her late husband's best friend, who is a constant reminder of all that she lost.
Nicola's life is definitely changing-which isn't ideal because her daughter Daisy hates change.
As secrets surface and hearts collide, Nicola must face an impossible choice-the security of the past or the uncertain promise of a new beginning.
