review 1: Nora and Timothy are completely opposites in terms of core values and family history. While Nora is taking care of her ill mother, Timothy is tired of one night stands with his best friends girlfriend. Yet there is something about their undeniable attraction that glues them together and although they try to resist temptation, they cannot help but yield to each other unexpected demands. As their relationship progresses, love and murder collide in this epic novel about secrets, love, intrigue and betrayal.There is nothing interesting about Nora, not only is she far from interesting but others think that she is a plain and fragile woman looking for love. Siblings has made it hard for her to reach her highest potential because they practically use her. Even though she is highl... morey educated with two degrees, she is stuck working at a coffee job that she has grown accustomed too. Neil her worrisome manager wants her to explore all what is there to offer. Yet she thinks that she is content with her life, not realizing that she is wasting her life away. Dan her typical ex will do anything to get her back and rumors that circulate their small town began to take a toil on her. It is hard to keep things private when her mother expects her to take care of her all her life. Nora is torn between the hype about romance and the thrill of being single. Life in Kansas cannot be anymore predictable, that is until she meets Timothy.In contrast, Timothy is the financial expert for his family for years. However many disputes has been occurring because his mother picks favorites. Additionally, nothing is looking good as far as the romance department and he wants someone else to trigger his emotions. Celia his best friend ex makes a good roll in the hay but nothing sparks outside the bedroom. Timothy brothers are as confused as he is as to what to about their life. Dealing with an anorexic sister is not making anything better, with her absurd claims and secrets. On the other hand, everything changes when he meets Nora who he instantly falls in love for. Love at first sight has never been sweeter, but when she moves to New York, her life is in jeopardy.Dangerously wicked, intrigue, love, romance, lust, envy and pride collide in this extraordinary novel!!! I love the way Morganworth writes, her characters are so empathetic, they make you root for them to prevail in the end. Nora was so naive to what was going on but ultimately I think she wanted what was best for her mother in the end. The ending ALWAYS has to be good for a perfect thriller and this was was better than good, 5/5 perfect execution with great characterization!HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommended! Morganworth "They Did It With Love" was an amazing thriller and this one was no exception!
review 2: This book was a great distraction from all the chaos in my life. The measure of a good book for me is when I think about the characters when I am not reading, and this book did that for me. I liked the narrative style from the point of view of the two main characters and the brief quotes that clued you in that something was going to happen, but the reader is not quite sure who is going to be affected by the ultimate event. Through the Heart reminded me of Gone Girl, by Gillian Flynn. I enjoy when a book has an unexpected twist. less
