1.      Butterfly Dreams by A. Meridith Walters. Loveswept 2015. Netgalley. Romance. Corin has a problem. She’s a hypochondriac. Both of her parents died when she was young and she was their caretaker. She’s shut the outside world out. Thinking she has a heart problem, she goes to a support group where she meets another heart patient, Beckett Kingsley. Beckett can’t get Corin out of his mind. He wants to help her, but first she has to learn to help herself if she wants to discover a healing love. This is another tearjerker!! At first, I had a tough time liking Corin’s character for all her illnesses but as she opened up, her character came to mean a lot to me. I didn’t understand how an illness like this could affect a person, now I do. This is told with heartfelt warmth and love and the characters are absolutely charming to get to know. Enjoy!!
