Today I’m super excited to participate in the Blog Tour of ‘War of Hearts’, an all knew adult paranormal romance novel by S Young. ‘War of Hearts’ is out now!
I’m a big fan of Samantha Young. So when I read that her new book ‘War of Hearts’ was coming I got super excited and couldn’t wait to read it. So I signed up for the blog tour and was super happy to find out I got selected for an ARC.
In ‘War of Hearts’ we meet Thea. Thea has been on the run for several years after she was kept hostage because of what she was. And what that was exactly was unknown to her. She always had these powers she couldn’t control and all she knows is, she can’t trust anyone and is all alone. So when Thea meets Conall, a werewolf who is hired to find her, she doesn’t trust him at all. But Thea and Conall have an instant connection that makes them doubt everything they know.
‘War of Hearts’ is a paranormal romance novel written by Samantha Young under her new pen name, S. Young. And I was so excited to learn this book had paranormal elements in it. I used to love reading fantasy and paranormal novels. But lately I haven’t been receiving any new paranormal books or found any appealing. But this one got me all excited. And definitely not for nothing. Boy, did I love this book! From the moment I started reading I just loved everything about the two main characters Thea and Conall. Their chemistry was just amazing and I loved the way they interacted.
The paranormal part in this book was also pretty exciting. I loved reading about these supernatural powers, werewolves and special gifts. This book just really got me all excited. And I couldn’t put it down. Yes, it’s a romantic book, but there are also many thrilling and exciting moment that made this read definitely super exciting and kept me on the edge of my seat.
Although I would love to read more books set in this new world Samantha created, I was also happy to find out this book was a standalone. I just couldn’t bear finding out this book was part of a series, and not being able to find out what would happen to Thea and Conall. Yes, there are some hints of possible more books, but the story of Thea and Conall feels like it came to an end. And I loved that.
‘War of Hearts’ was a great read I loved from the very first page, until the very last. I can only say I want more in this genre now!

Although his color hadn’t fully returned to normal, the wolf was looking much stronger. She didn’t know if she could take him in a fight when he was at full strength, which was more than a little concerning. As if he’d read her mind, he cut her an expressionless look. “You should have left me to die, lass.”
“Probably. I guess I’m just going to have to take the chance you were bluffing.”
He frowned and opened his mouth to question her, but Thea had already made her move.
Before he could comprehend it, she was on the bed behind him and reaching for his head before his weakened reflexes could catch up.
The crack of his neck echoed around the room, causing a sick lurch in Thea’s stomach.
For some reason, stupid tears stung her eyes as she watched his body hit the ground with an almighty thud. Why should she care? It wasn’t like he was dead. She’d knocked him out. For … however long he took to heal.
And he had stuck her with that goddamn injection.
Speaking of …
Thea jumped off the mattress, avoiding Conall’s body. Earlier when she’d been treating his wounds, she’d spied the syringes in the first aid kit. Grabbing them, Thea hurried out of the motel room and toward the fields beyond. Quickly she dug a hole with her bare hands and buried the syringes. Hurrying back, she avoided staring at Conall because he looked very much dead.
She grabbed his wallet and as she took his money, leaving him his credit cards, a folded-up photograph caught her attention. Curiosity got the better of her and she pulled it out.
Smoothing her fingers across the picture, she spotted who she thought was Conall only to realize it wasn’t. The man who looked like him was standing next to a much younger Conall, and Thea deduced it was his father. The younger Conall had his arm around the waist of a small, redheaded girl buried into his side. And beside the man she’d mistaken for Conall was a beautiful redheaded woman.
Was this Conall and his family?
They were standing on a rocky beach, a beautiful lake and mountains behind them.
Thea wondered which one of them was sick. Which of these people was he willing to sacrifice her for?
Memories of her own parents swelled in her throat, burning and screaming to get out. But Thea shoved them back down as she shoved the photograph into his wallet.
There were times she pulled those memories out and let herself swim in the pain because it was worth it to remember the happy moments.
But now was not the time.
With a ruthless supernatural sure to wake up from a broken neck wanting to kill her, and some unknown entity out there hunting her too, now was very much the time to go.
