Review
No one pulls at my heartstrings quite like Ella Fields, because she not only makes my heart hurt but my whole body react to the angst in her books. You know what am saying? That heart ache, sick to my stomach feling? Yup, that's pretty accurate and exactly how Jackson and Willa made me feel at times.

I had been waiting for this book for what truly felt like forever. In Kiss and Break Up we got our first taste of these two, in Forever and Never we got another hint of their story but with all the theories and scenerios I could have come up with, I would have never come up with the crazy ansgt filled ride these two lived. 

I loved that Ella gave us a little of their childhood and we got to see a lot of their growing up and how their relationship grew and changed throughout the years.. it really helped in understanding them and their connection better and obviously made me fall in them all the more. Jackson and Willa will make you feel all the things and you'll get to experience every single emotion with them. Their story is not an easy one and the tittle holds true to its words... there is a lot of heart and there are a lot of thorns and same happens with the old tittle oh yes... there are a lot of lies and goodbyes too. (Excuse me, I'm getting emotional over here)

There is so much I want to say but I feel like I'm already rambling so I'm sorry and please bare with me. It's all still so fresh and I'm still a mess, truth be told. Ella had me crying before the 20% mark and at the point, I had no clue what was still ahead for me. I started this book last night and well I finished it one sitting, it was 3 am and I read the end and oh boy I'm still processing all the emotions. Jackson and Willa completely consumed me, their story pulled me in and didn't want to let go. I just had to keep reading and get to that HEA, get to that part where Ella puts all the little pieces of my shattered heart back together. It happens, fear not. After all the tears, heartache and rage of emotions you'll get to breath out and revel in the beauty of their happy ending.

No matter what I've come to expect from Ella and her books, she always manages to surprise me and go so beyond what I had expected and wanted. I love her words, worlds and characters and in this book I not only got to see all the other Magnolia Cove characters but also got a mention of Gray Springs which made my heart full and had me craving a reread. There were also some characters in this book that I kind of hope, if not now then someday, that they get their own stories told, that they get their HEA. Yes, I want a book for Todd (I'm not gonna say who he is, he's a new character), he went through a lot and my heart hurt for him too and now craves to read his own HEA and I also really want a book for Raven, okay Ella?

Hearts and Thorns is so much more than a forbidden stepbrothers romance though, it's a story about family, a family that runs deeper than blood and about forgiveness, forgiving those who hurt us the most, sometimes the ones who we love and love us the most too. It's a story about first loves that are never forgotten, about heartbreaks that time and distance don't heal and about second chances that might take some time but are so worth it.

Ella Fields did it again! Jackson and Willa were everything and so much more! Their story was a rollercoaster of angst that built and built with each chapter. These two characters are so lovable, even with all the frustration and craziness of their actions that had me a mess, it's impossible not to love them and pray and pray for them to work things out. I'm kind of hoping this wasn't the end to this series and that I'll get to see all these characters again but if it was the end for Magnolia Cove than it was a fantastic one!


Blurb:
Jackson Thorn was my best friend and worst enemy, but that didn’t stop me from wanting him.
From first words to high school halls, our childhood years braided a bond that wove in a direction neither of us could predict or outgrow.
Forbidden became a word we ignored.
It wasn’t that we didn’t care.
It was that we cared too much.
We had it all planned out.
We thought we could make it.
We thought we’d been careful.
But all we managed to do was prolong the inevitable.
Our destruction.
Hearts and Thorns is a standalone full length new adult novel from bestselling author, Ella Fields.
