Heartbeat [Mass Market Paperback] Johnston, Joan

**Heartbeat by Joan Johnston - Romance That'll Make Your Pulse Race**

This preloved beauty from Patina Paperbacks delivers classic contemporary romance with Joan Johnston's signature blend of passion and small-town charm. When stubborn rancher meets headstrong veterinarian, sparks fly faster than tumbleweeds in a Texas storm. Expect sizzling chemistry, emotional healing, and characters who feel refreshingly real—no perfect heroes allowed here, just flawed humans figuring out love.

Johnston, a New York Times bestselling author, knows how to craft romance that hits different. She tackles themes of trust, second chances, and finding love when you least expect it, all wrapped in her trademark Western settings that feel lived-in rather than touristy.

Perfect for fans of LaVyrle Spencer, Linda Lael Miller, or anyone who likes their romance with grit and heart. This Avon mass market paperback proves good love stories never go out of style.
