About this listen

In a house haunted by lies, love might be the most dangerous threat of all.

After serving a year in prison for a crime he swears he didn’t commit, Ford Sawyer returns to the shadowed halls of Heartstone Manor only to find freedom offers no escape. His father’s true killer is still out there, and suspicion clings to Ford like smoke. Worse, the man who once defended him now wants him dead—and has sent a killer to finish the job.

Paige McKenna thought taking a nanny job with the wealthy Sawyers would bring her closer to the truth about her father’s mysterious disappearance. But instead of answers, she’s entangled in secrets far darker than she imagined. And at the heart of them stands Ford—magnetic, brooding, and possibly a murderer.

As dangerous truths rise to the surface and a ghostly presence stirs within the walls of Heartstone Manor, Ford and Paige must decide if they can trust each other. Because someone is watching, someone is hunting—and the past isn’t done with either of them.

Forbidden Heart is a standalone romance with a happy ending. It’s the ninth and final book in The Hearts of Sawyers Bend series, featuring the Sawyer family of Sawyers Bend.
