Moving, passionate, and unforgettable, Colleen Hoover's novel follows two young adults from completely different backgrounds embarking on a tentative romance, unaware of what the future holds. After a childhood filled with poverty and neglect, Beyah Grim finally has her hard-earned ticket out of Kentucky with a full ride to Penn State. But two months before she’s finally free to change her life for the better, an unexpected death leaves her homeless and forced to spend the remainder of her summer in Texas with a father she barely knows. Devastated and anxious for the summer to go by quickly, Beyah has no time or patience for Samson, the wealthy, brooding guy next door. Yet, the connection between them is too intense to ignore. But with their upcoming futures sending them to opposite ends of the country, the two decide to maintain only a casual summer fling. Too bad neither has any idea that a rip current is about to drag both their hearts out to sea. Review: When Romance Speaks of Human Nature - Overall Grade: ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ “‘…You can fill your life with nice things, but nice things don’t fill the holes in your soul.’ ‘What fills the holes in a soul?’ Samson’s eyes scroll over my face for a few seconds.’Pieces of someone else’s soul.'” I guess you could say that I’ve been sitting on writing this review. It isn’t that I didn’t love this book. I adored it. I think it’s more about the idea of letting it go when I wanted to hold onto it a bit more. This is my second Colleen Hoover book, the first one being her last book, Regretting You. I know that her popularity comes from her stories such as Verity and It Ends with Us, and I have every intention of reading those stories. For me, Heart Bones, her newest book, along with Regretting You, have shown me the ways in which she pours herself into her storytelling in ways that are nuanced. That nuance makes for reads that impact you straight into your heart asthe secrets of her stories are divulged. And Heart Bones…it is no different. The premise of Heart Bones is a young woman on the cusp of change (going off to college) is thrust into her father’s world, a father who can only be considered very absentee. This world is a world of privilege, a world that she did not live in with her mother. There, she meets Samson, the local rich boy. They agree to a summer together before she leaves for college, and they pour themselves into each other. However, as the summer comes to an end, the ability to let go of Samson seems impossible. It is also in that space where the secret of Heart Bones is shown. What I loved most about this book is its elemental message about loving a person. As humans, we need people to “see” us, to seek to understand us without facade, and we oftentimes go through life without being regarded in elemental ways. It’s like we’re apparitions carrying ourselves through life, never fully engaging and becoming solid in the adoration of another. This is the underlying crux of this story. It’s the beauty of it, quite frankly. As Samson and Beyah encounter each other, (and this may sound corny), their souls acknowledge their similarities, and it creates this romance that is less about the physical (these two are slow-burn) and more about the emotional pull between them. This is a book about soulmates acknowledging their existence for the other, and that makes for a romance rife with depth and gravity. Even more, Hoover pokes and prods at the notion of socio-economic influence. In many ways Samson and Beyah are the same person, yet they exist at odds in terms of wealth. There is a complication to this in the story that illustrates the farce that a person who is wealthy cannot understand a person who is poor. Hoover bridges this idea with that connection. It’s a reminder that money does not soften life experiences. That it’s possible to understand a person even if your past or upbringing or wealth or lack of it is different from your own. As Samson and Beyah realize this notion, they recognize the reflection of each other in the other. Over and over again, their connections draw you into Heart Bones. And nuances of Colleen Hoover’s Heart Bones reside in the way it resonates in your soul even though it isn’t romantic by traditional romance standards. In this book and her last, the $exual relationship between her heroes and heroines are minimized in a way. The story isn’t about that. Instead, Hoover sets to tell stories about the human condition that transcend traditional romantic tropes. This is what has bowled me over about the two stories I’ve read thus far. Heart Bones is a story about learning to love yourself, as you find yourself reflected in another. It’s about recognizing that everyone has a story, and you aren’t alone. It’s about finding that person whose story connects with your own and loving them even through the difficulties of life. These messages roll over you again and again in Heart Bones, that when you’ve turned the last page, your heart feels like it’s grown its own heart bones, and you’re already nostalgic for a story that resonates with you in its basic truths about the human condition.

This story beautifully intertwines love, loss, and the healing power of human connection, making it an unforgettable read. The characters are vividly brought to life, each with their own complexities and struggles.

Heart Bones is another one of her phenomenal reads that was so enthralling from start to finish. I know better then to start a book late at night, thinking I’ll put it away and go to sleep. I do wish it was slightly longer, only selfishly! I was able to finish it in about 6 hours, so it was a quick little read. If you’re teetering on the edge of reading this or not, why on a Earth would you do that? Stop right this instant and read it! I’ll get into my actually review from here, so stop reading if you don’t want spoilers! The story literally captivates from the very first chapter. Beyah’s mothers death is so beautifully and heartbreakingly raw in its depiction that it starts the book magnificently and keeps you enthralled and wanting more. Beyah is amazing. Her character is developed so well and you can feel what it’s like to be in her shoes. The story captivates and takes you in a journey through life experiences maybe you’ve never been before. One of my favorite parts early on was the part about the angry, starving cat in her stomach tearing her up from the inside. The hunger pains we’re so vividly depicted and beautifully written and made me get goose bumps. I never saw her character as bitchy or woe is me. She was genuinely a beautiful person who was just dealt a horrible hand but handled it wonderfully. The horrific things she endured by her mother, men, and society as a whole made her a badass woman able to look at the world outside of the box and see people for who they are on the inside and not the situations they create or circumstances. Samson! What’s not to love about Samson! He is aloof and mysterious just as Beyah is, demons of his own, piled high with mistakes, secrets, and hopes. His love for her is so real and sweet. I was rooting for them the whole way. I only have a few negative comments about the book! 1- I wish it was longer! 2 - I think it was rushed at the end and further development of Samson’s secrets could have been better uncovered and addressed. They didn’t seem that bad to me compared to Beyah’s but they definitely were rushed. The books pace was just slightly off because we had this buildup of Samson’s horrible secrets through 80% of the book, then they were rushed at the end. 3 - I wanted more of when she went to school and how that distance took a toll on her. It jumped 4 years in 2 pages. 4 - The ending was too abrupt and not fully developed. Again, I just keep reiterating that I wish we had more of the end part do the story like we had at the first. I love you CoHO! 4/5 stars for me! ## Frequently Bought Together - Heart Bones: A Novel - Regretting You - Confess: A Novel --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co/products/475911787-heart-bones-a-novel](https://www.desertcart.co/products/475911787-heart-bones-a-novel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Colombia* *Store origin: CO* *Last updated: 2026-06-05*
