The Secret Heart (Mended Vessels Book 3) Kindle Edition
Finalist, 2018 National Excellence in Romantic Fiction Awards
Semi-Finalist, 2018 Royal Palm Literary Awards
Truth is messy. But will their shared secret destroy his political career—or sabotage their marriage?
After a whirlwind romance, beautiful Shawna Moore marries Hunter Wilson, the governor of Tennessee. Now, she wonders if the governor ever loved her or only hoped to avoid a scandal.
In this modern re-imagining of the biblical story of Bathsheba and King David, an investigative reporter is asking questions—the wedding took place only six weeks following the death of Shawna's first husband in Iraq. If he discovers the truth about Shawna's baby, Hunter's chances for reelection, as well as Shawna's reputation, will be ruined.
But keeping their secret is destroying their marriage.
Will Hunter's choice mean the end of his political career or his family?

I enjoyed getting peeks inside a Governor's daily life, and how it affects a family.
This is the first book I've read from the series. It can be a stand alone read. It's made me curious about the others in the series, so you'll most likely need them too.
Coutu has a beautiful way of revealing character through relationships. The main character, Shawna, is the second wife of the Governor of Tennessee. If that wasn’t hard enough, the Governor’s late wife’s mother lives with them and cares for his children. Can you imagine? Talk about fireworks!
But the real drama is between the power couple themselves. Ambition and guilt are lonely bedfellows and Coutu unravels and re-tangles their marriage with each disappointment. Can it survive all the secrets and scandal? I'll never tell, but you'll love getting to know the real Shawna and Hunter.
Marie Wells Coutu is a lovely writer and I was thrilled to receive a free copy of The Secret Heart in exchange for my fair and honest review.
