Heart Trouble

Heart Trouble is an adorably delicious Romance with a hint of magic! Laleh has some problems with her heart and one night winds up in the emergency room. Hope is the doctor and duty, so she must get her patient’s heart start again. Well, she gets a little jolt from the defibrillator. After that, things change. Hope is suddenly fluent in Farsi and Laleh has a deep understanding of all things medical. The two also seem to have an emotional connection, but is it real, or another side effect?

I adored Heart Trouble! I love the little magical twist on another otherwise Contemporary Romance. It added an interesting and fresh type of drama. Hope is out and proud, but Laleh believes she’s straight. When she starts spending a lot of time with Hope, is she actually developing feelings for her or is the connection forged by the jolt? Is Laleh even gay, or is that something else she “inherited” from Hope?! No one knows! It’s so confusing for them, but they work through it!

As for the delicious part, there’s a lot of Persian food in Heart Trouble which made me hungry! But it was the romance that kept me engaged. I loved how Hope and Laleh actually spent time together, usually trying to figure out the extent of their bond. And once the kissing starts, things surely heat up!
