LOVED this novella! Blackened Heart is the novella that picks up where Beautiful Strangers left off with country music star Jaxson Hayes. He is going on tour with Sadie Blake, the other half of Blackened Sunrise. Jaxson is nursing a broken heart over how things were left between himself and Gracie. He also wants to pursue his solo career, if he can only get out of his contract with Sadie.Jaxson and Sadie don't really have a conventional relationship. As they embark on the tour, it is obvious that the sexual chemistry is still there, but is the heart still in it? Sadie can still make Jaxson respond physically, and Jaxson knows exactly what buttons to push to get Sadie hot and bothered.I will be honest, Jaxson was not my favorite person in Beautiful Strangers, but his cocky ass really did grow on me with Blackened Heart. You can't help but fall just a little bit in love with him. He's hot, and he knows it. He's not ashamed to admit it.Sadie is another story. She has been holding Jaxson in a contract to Blackened Sunrise and a marriage. Jaxson has hurt her in the past, just as she has hurt him. She is sassy and feisty.Glenna Maynard has really written an amazing companion novella to her debut novel, Beautiful Strangers. Blackened Heart was sexy and funny. Jaxson may be an arrogant womanizer, but her really does have a good heart deep down that won my heart over. I absolutely can't wait to read more from Glenna Maynard, as she continues her Masquerade Series.
