About this ebook

Now a USA TODAY bestseller!

From mega-bestseller and TikTok sensation Mia Sheridan comes an all-new epic second-chance romance with an unexpected and gritty speculative twist.

When the world is plunged into darkness,
Who would you turn to?
Amid the sun-drenched orange groves of California, childhood friends Tuck Mattice and Emily Swanson shared a bond that seemed unbreakable—until life ripped them apart.

Thirteen years later, Emily is a rising pop sensation in need of security, and Tuck, a brooding ex-con, is in need of a fresh start. When fate brings them together once again, Emily hires him on as her new bodyguard. They butt heads and bicker, just like the old days—yet neither can deny the heat rekindling between them.

But when a cataclysmic solar flare disrupts the electrical grid, society is suddenly plunged into chaos and darkness. For Emily, the familiar comforts of fame and fortune crumble, but for Tuck, this stark new reality could be the chance he needs to finally prove himself. As they come to terms with all they've lost and the bitterness that's kept them apart, they must find their way back to one another and discover a new place, under the sun.

Heart of the Sun is an emotional and adventurous dystopian romance. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily. There was a sense of adventure as the characters traveled to California with many tense and unpredictable moments. They made many stops along the way and encountered many different types of people. Tuck and Emily are lovable, relatable characters. When Tuck's emotions get the best of him, he quickly and easily shuts himself off. He carries a bit of shame and guilt that doesn't belong to him but makes it easier to put himself in danger to protect those who are unable to. Emily put in the work to get to where she was in life. She was never an entitled pop star, but in this new reality, she still lost a bit of herself. She felt useless, especially around Tuck, who was perfect in this kind of situation. But she was brave and generous. This situation brought the best out of both of them, and they made a great team.
