It was my mistake for letting my guard down.
Confession time: I have a soft spot for Cal.
A debonair FBI agent who also happens to be a billionaire.
He’s kind, intelligent, and always there when you need him.
He’s also my best friend.
How could I not help him?
How could I not fall?
But, in my line of work, I can’t trust anyone.
I shouldn’t get attached.
I shouldn’t let anyone into my heart.

Customer Reviews
Delightful!
This was a delightful start to an exciting new series by Claudia Burgoa! I enjoyed reading this well written novella that gave us a glimpse of a new family mixed with some old favourites. I look forward to reading more from this new series.
Off to a good start
I was so excited when I heard that Claudia Burgoa had a new series releasing. This is the prequel and has only wet my appetite for what is to come in the Heartwood Lake Secret Billionaires series.
I love stories set in small towns such as Heartwood Lake. I really liked FBI agent and billionaire Callahan Thorndale, he ticked all the boxes for me. Whilst Lake Sophia Hawkins Zimmerman is an intriguing woman, a woman who has secrets, who I admired. It may have been a novella but it captivated and held my attention.
Once I started this book I couldn’t put it down. Callahan and Lake met at Quantico and have remained best friends. I enjoyed the mystery and intrigue within this story and cannot wait for the next book in the series to learn more about Callahan and Lake and the secrets that are being hidden.
Great start to the new series
Starts With You is everything you want and expect in a prequel to a new series. This short read gave you just enough to leave you wanting more, just enough to have you falling in love with the small town of Heartwood Lake but more importantly it has you falling in love with the characters. I was so excited when I heard Claudia Burgoa was releasing a new series set in another small town and all I need to say is I wasn’t disappointed in fact I fell hard and fast for FBI agent and billionaire Callahan Thorndale. What I didn’t expect was to be intrigued and wanting more from Sophia Hawkins Zimmerman a woman who is keeping secrets…..
I was captivated and intrigued in this quick read and it certainly kept me on the edge of my seat throughout and now I’m excited for what’s to come from Heartwood Lake.
