Quan has had a central role in the first two books, so I’m delighted to see him as the main character this time.

The Heart Principle, however, is lacking in the romance department. So far each book has been charming, sweet, and very steamy. However, because we see all the characters in each, I recommend reading them all. I love that each book in the series can also be a stand alone. Each book has an individual love story with autistic main characters. The focus of each book is on separate characters and they’re in the romance genre. Unfortunately this book was a bit of a miss for me. (source: Goodreads) My thoughts…Īfter reading The Kiss Quotient and The Bride Test I expected to love The Heart Principle. Anna and Quan have to fight for their chance at love, but to do that, they also have to fight for themselves. However, when tragedy strikes Anna’s family she takes on a role that she is ill-suited for, until the burden of expectations threatens to destroy her. Their first attempt at a one-night stand fails, as does their second, and their third, because being with Quan is more than sex-he accepts Anna on an unconditional level that she herself has just started to understand. That’s where tattooed, motorcycle-riding Quan Diep comes in. The more unacceptable the men, the better. Translation: She’s going to embark on a string of one-night stands. And when her longtime boyfriend announces he wants an open relationship before making a final commitment, a hurt and angry Anna decides that if he wants an open relationship, then she does, too. When violinist Anna Sun accidentally achieves career success with a viral YouTube video, she finds herself incapacitated and burned out from her attempts to replicate that moment. SYNOPSIS: A woman struggling with burnout learns to embrace the unexpected-and the man she enlists to help her-in this new New York Times bestselling romance by Helen Hoang.
