ARC provided by author in exchange for an honest review. Thank you Claire!

Claire Contreras continues to pull all the right strings in her third installment of the Hearts Series. So if you read the first two book of the series, then you were taken on an emotional, heartbreaking and raw journey of love and healing. But in her newest release, Elastic Hearts,Claire took her readers on an journey that was less emotional but still had all the feels to make your hearts flutter.

Elastic Hearts had that refreshing, beautiful, sexy and slow burn romance. While the first two books were more emotional, I loved that Claire made this story light since it was truly a story of two people who knew already what they wanted in life and love. There were no games or hidden agenda. The truth was laid out there as two people tried to learn from the mistakes of their past and accept things that they cannot change. It truly was a fresh breath of air as Claire showed readers raw characters who made choices in their life...the good, the bad but these choices helped shaped them who they are today. It allowed them to see the truth, mistakes made, and rash decisions made when you are young and naive.

Victor Reuben is L.A.’s most sought out divorce attorney. He is on his way to be made partner in his law firm. All he has to do is take the lead on this one celebrity divorce case. Sounds easy, right? Well, Victor didn’t expect to be represent Nicole Alessi, the girl that he had a fling several years ago. The girl who rocked his world. Oh did I mention that Nicole is the daughter of his boss. So yeah, Victor knew he was in trouble when Nicole Alessi walked back into his life.

When Victor ended their fling, Nicole was heartbroken and so when an hot upcoming actor swept her away with hearts and flowers, Nicole thought she found love. But that fairytale happily ever after romance came crashing down, when infidelity and lies tore them apart. So when Nicole filed for divorce, she never expected her father to assign Victor as her legal counsel.

The sexual tension brewing between Nicole and Victor was palpable from the start. It was basically a flashing neon sign. As much as Victor wanted to finally claim Nicole as his, he knew that he couldn’t cross that line. He couldn’t risk losing his chance at partnership and law license if word got out that he mixed business with pleasure. But as he begins to spend more time with Nicole, his strength to stay away begins to falter when he begins to realize that Nicole might be the one. The one true love that is worth all the risk. So will Victor be able to face all the consequences when he puts his heart on the line?

I loved that Claire Contreras ended this Heart Series on a lighter note. She may not have broke your hearts with a heartbreaking story but she definitely knew all the right strings to pull to give you a love story to make your heart flutter. Elastic Hearts is a love story that was simple, pure, beautiful, and moving. So if you are looking for a story where love radiates as it shines through its kaleidoscope hearts, where words of love are written in paper hearts, and lastly where a love may stretch but never break regardless of time, place, or circumstance then I highly urge you to read Elastic Hearts.
