No one lays open the heart and soul quite like New York Times bestselling author Mia Sheridan in this heart-wrenching love story about destiny, second chances, and the healing power of love set in the beautiful countryside in France. Named on of the "Best Romance Books of 2018" by BookBub! The moment she met Callen Hayes, eleven-year-old Jessica Creswell knew he was a broken prince. Her prince. They became each other's refuge, a safe and magical place far from their troubled lives. Until the day Callen kissed her -- Jessica's first real, dreamy kiss -- and then disappeared from her life without a word. Years later, everyone knows who Callen Hayes is. Famous composer. Infamous bad boy. What no one knows is that Callen's music is now locked deep inside, trapped behind his own inner demons. It's only when he withdraws to France to drink his way through the darkness that Callen stumbles into the one person who makes the music return. Jessica. His Jessie. And she still tastes of fresh, sweet innocence . . . even as she sets his blood on fire. But they don't belong in each other's worlds anymore. There are too many mistakes. Too many secrets. Too many lies. All they have is that instinctive longing, that need--and something that looks dangerously like love. Praise for More Than Words "Sheridan explores the power of first love in a tale of childhood friends parted and reunited." -- Publisher's Weekly "A modern fairy tale, the well-crafted romance and beautiful French setting will take readers by surprise.

Jackson, New York Times Bestselling Author "More than Words is Mia Sheridan at her best! The story of love, heartbreak and second chances ... each scene was beautifully written and paired with breathtaking imagery and epic love." -- Alessandra Torre, New York Times Bestselling Author "Some love stories touch your soul so deeply, they stay with you long after you've finished reading. More Than Words by Mia Sheridan is such a story." -- Katy Regnery, New York Times Bestselling Author
Reviews with the most likes.
The premise of More Than Words intrigued me, because I think often women are attracted to men that carry similar shortcomings to their father, so I knew if this book was going to satisfy me, it was going to have to cut deep. Halfway to two-thirds through, I was tempted to abandon the book. It looked like the root of Jessie and Callen's conflict was going to be explained away or swept under the rug like it is in many romance books. But it didn't. I'm so glad I stuck with this one because man did it come through in the end. Brought me to tears. So beautiful. Well done, Mia Sheridan.
