QUINN THOMPSON

I never believed a boy would like me. When I’m around Maiken, I feel like I can conquer the world. He gives me the confidence to stand up to my enemy. I vowed to Tessa Stevens that she would see a new me. But people don’t change overnight. I’m still the same girl she knew before Christmas break. I still live on a farm, stutter when I’m nervous, spit out random facts, and avoid confrontation. I’m not the type to punch first and ask questions later. But when she lays her paws on Maiken, all bets are off.

MAIKEN MAXWELL

Since my dad died, I can’t seem to get my act together. I’m failing two classes. I’m suspended from basketball, and Chase Stevens makes playing the game difficult for the entire team, but none of that matters when my family is faced with yet another tragedy. My only lifeline is the girl with butterscotch hair, amber eyes, and quirky personality. The one whose flirty smiles and shy looks are only reserved for me. The girl who has a way of picking me up when I feel like I want to run and hide. The problem is I might not get the chance to see Quinn ever again when my mom has no choice but to move a thousand miles away.

My Heart to Hold is the second novel in the Maxwell Family Saga series. All books in the series should be read in order for a better reading experience. A sweet and clean wholesome romance with all the feels, hunky basketball star, high school drama, and a coming of age love story.

Ratings and reviews

Great story and fantastic narration! “‘A beating heart is the mystery behind a person. When people hurt, their hearts hurt. When they love, their hearts love, and when they cry, their hearts cry too. The heart knows everything.’” I love the Maxwell family. If you have read the series, then you are probably familiar with the above quote. The Maxwell’s put family first ALWAYS! So seeing Kade & Lacey take on so much to help their family in need is such a beautiful, moving and emotional scene. Kade & Lacey are definitely going to make wonderful parents someday. Kade is so fatherly to the kids, without taking over like he’s replacing their father. He and Lacey are actually helping the children to heal. I was moved to tears in this books so many times. It was just so touching, so loving and so moving. I love Quinn and her brother, Liam (especially). They just fit in with the Maxwell family so well. Quinn has become a tuff cookie, thanks to Maiken’s always building her up and showing her how special she is. It has done a lot to make her look at herself differently. But when Maiken is behind her she feels even more confident. Maiken needs Quinn in somewhat the same way. Their relationship really begins to grow and they are the sweetest teenage couple. This is such a great series! The audio is sooo great!! The narrators are the same as for the first book, and I love how they sound the age of the characters! They both are really good at a wide range of different voices for all the different characters! They just bring this story to life in such an incredible way!!!

I have read the ebook and I really loved listening the audiobook for the second book in this series. This is my second ever audiobook and I am really starting to enjoy them. I love Maiken’s voice, his accent is great, it’s what I imagine him to sound like. I loved the story from start to finish and all the characters! I definitely recommend this!
