The Heart Has Reasons by Martine Marchand is a must read for anyone who loves a little danger mixed with romance, action and excitement.  I literally could not put this book down and even when I did I found myself daydreaming about what was going to happen next!!  The story centers on a strong willed yet vulnerable woman named Larissa who one night, in the safety of her own home, finds herself a victim of a violent crime.  The intruder, although injured, was never captured.  That one night both shapes and changes her life forever.  Chase is a handsome, ex-military soldier who happens to accept a rather nefarious assignment that will bring him to a crossroads in his life.  Will fate entwine Larissa & Chase's uncertain paths? Read this captivating story of survival, consequence, love and sacrifice to find out.This book is pretty fast passed and is a very easy and enjoyable read.  I loved the plot development & colorful characters especially Larissa - she is one tough cookie.  I did feel that the story could have ended a bit sooner - there was a lot of "filler" and once you read it you will probably understand why I say this.  I do understand why the author does this and it certainly does not take away from the overall flow or dynamic of the story.  This book does not have a cliffhanger (thank you) and I hope that the author chooses to continue Larissa & Chase's story!!  There is explicit sex scenes and mature content so this book is intended for readers 18+.
