About this ebook

The Hamilton brothers have horse racing in their blood, and their sprawling Kentucky farm is the family’s pride and joy. But they’ve got plenty of passion to spare...

Nick Hamilton has always known he’d take the reins of the family business when his father died, but that doesn’t make it any easier when the time comes. Especially with his two siblings tempted by a shrewd offer from a huge corporation to buy Hamilton Industries. Needing advice, Nick turns to his sensible childhood friend, Becca Stark—and finds her suddenly grown-up beauty ignites brand-new confusion, and crystal clear desire...

Becca has loved Nick for as far back as she can remember, but she decided long ago that telling him would be a mistake. Stubborn, strong Nick doesn’t see her as anything but the tomboy she used to be—or does he? As she helps him untangle his feelings about the ranch’s future, the familiar bond between them heats into an explosive attraction—and the kind of love that just might take the lead...

Praise for Melissa West’s Racing Hearts

“An emotional story filled with heart, humor, and second chances, Racing Hearts is a love letter to small towns, southern pride, and the heartbeat of all tight communities—its strong families. I laughed, I cried, and I never wanted to leave. An incredible story!” --Rachel Harris, New York Times bestselling author

Ratings and reviews

I thought this one was an awesome read! It's a great friends to lovers story between Nick and Becca. Nick is still reeling from the loss of his father. While his brothers seem to have hit their stride and are achieving great things in areas of the family ranch business, Nick's struggling and can't seem to get his footing. While his brothers are ready to sell the business Nick is in charge of, he's not ready to give up yet fearing he will be letting his father down. With the love of his family and Becca, Nick finally sees what is really important in life and is determined to get what he wants. Has he waited to long? Hurt Becca too much?? You really want to read this one and find out. I highly recommend it.

Silent Hearts tells the story of evolving relationships. How people change due to circumstance, maturity and environment. Although understated, Nick and Becca are the spark that drives this story and his family is the match that sets it on fire. I received an ARC of this novel in exchange for an honest review. Family, love, friendship and business collide in this story of growth and heart.

Silent Heart by Melissa West....This is the third book in the series and oh my...what a way to end the series. This story deserve more than 5 stars. Melissa West wrote each book Racing Heart, Wild Hearts and Silent Hearts to perfection, she is an amazing author. Her characters are always likable and relatable Nick and Becca are no different. Nick has experienced terrible tragedies in his life which causes him to struggle and Becca is his best friend and there to support and love him through this great book. Can these two make a relationship work? If you have not read this series or book, it is a must read. I received a complimentary book for an honest review.
