Readers will love Shauna Mairéad's Malevolent Hearts as family duty, entangled past and sabotaged futures littered the pages creating an unforgettable uphill battle to love!

Cadden Connelly was an old soul. From his bookish ways to his poet’s heart this hero was sigh worthy. His brilliance was in direct contrast with the blind obedience required of him as the heir to his family's syndicate and tortured him with his every breath.

Beibhinn was a wild child not meant to conform or to be tied down. With few fears and reckless abandon Beibhinn was not someone to dismiss. She loved hard but her hatred was even more potent.

As chemistry goes this couple's was edgy and intense. The question was always not if Beibhinn would fall for Cadden but how could she not. There was an intimacy to this couple's exchanges that bared their souls making their roles in each other's heartbreak that much more devastating. This author's demonstration of her characters sensitive and caring sides without diminishing their strength was done well by Ms. Mairéad. Of note are this writer's unorthodox female portrayals and her allowing them to stand on equal footing in a man's world, meeting the challenges thrown at them adeptly and capably.

Action plotting and emotions come effortlessly to this author. Shauna Mairéad's books are never without angst and heartstrings pulls. Her unexpected outcomes have become one of her author strengths regularly leaving her audience in disbelief and anticipation of her story conclusions. Shauna Mairéad's Malevolent Hearts is filled with irresistible bitter truths that will keep readers up late at night trying to guess its outcome setting up an avidly awaited book two!
