ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date September 12, 2024
Captivated.
Addicted.
Mesmerized.
All the things I felt the minute I saw Addison Lark.
The last thing I’d expected was to fall in love at a strip club.
But Addison was the woman of my dreams.
It didn’t matter that I spent an obscene amount of money just to talk to her.
The fiery redhead made me feel things I’d never felt before.
But she didn’t want anything to do with me.
And she left without a backward glance.
Making me crave her even more.
Imagine my shock when we unexpectedly met again, presenting the most unexpected problem—Addison Lark was forbidden.
But did that stop me?
Did that stop us?
I’d made a promise to start living my life, and I wasn’t going to let that woman walk away for a second time.

REVIEW: Heartbreaker is the fourth installment in the Spade hotel series by the ever brilliant Marni Mann. As most of the other books in the series are the same, HB is a single bad, age gap,billionaire romance, each book in the series can be read as a standalone, but as I always recommend, reading the series in order gives a much better feel for the character and the plot.
In typical Marni fashion Ridge and Addison meet in a not so normal way, AKA a strip club, so of course Ridge wants to get to know her better. They meet, they converse, they get it on in a hot and sweaty night of passion. Ridge waits for Addison to contact him, but she never does. Poor Addison isn’t one for hookups, let alone strip club hook ups, to say she is mortified is an understatement so she does the last thing she can think of, she ghosts him. After all, being a dancer isn’t bad, but she has her reasons for being so, reasons that she doesn’t want to share.
The plot twist on this one, to say that Ms. Author was hiding the punch line! Low and behold, after thinking she will never see Ridge again, Addison gets a surprise in the form of being Ridge’s daughter’s teacher. Her teacher, she slept with a student’s parent. Oh that was such a kick in the pants to read. Addison and Ridge have a strong connection, and Ridge is like the perfect mixture of supportive guy and take charge guy.
I really enjoyed the story on this read, the interaction between Ridge, Daisy and Addison made some of the sweetest moments. The mix between the sweet moments and the spicy bits really made the story quick and memorable for me. Ridge went above and beyond to make himself clear to Addison that he didn’t just want her in his bed, he wanted everything with her. I really loved the big gestures he made for her, not because she needed them per se but more because HE wanted to do them for HER, he wanted her to know how much he wanted her. Heartbreaker left me smiling and ready for another happy ending.

When she’s not nose deep in her laptop working on her next novel, she’s scouring for chocolate, sipping wine, traveling to new locations, and devouring fabulous books.
