Publisher Description
Fall in love with the charming and subversive new rom-com from Falon Ballard!
'Laugh-out-loud funny, heartwarming . . . I couldn't put Change of Heart down. I want to live in Heart Springs, I want Cam Andrews in my corner, and I want this story to be adapted into an actual Hallmark movie' Sarah Hogle
'Laugh out loud funny and romantic beyond the scope of space and time, Change of Heart is another total winner from Falon Ballard. I have never met a heroine I've cheered for so hard' Annabel Monaghan
'The perfect blend of wit and romance. I love my rom coms with a slice of magical realism and Change of Heart delivers in spades. Imagine Pleasantville and The Hating Game had a book baby. I adored this book; Falon Ballard at her best' Sophie Cousens
______________________________
Campbell Andrews despises precisely three things in life: incompetence, lateness, and love stories. Having made partner at her law firm at thirty-four, she has no time for anything - or anyone - else. Especially after yet another disastrous first date.
But then she wakes up in Heart Springs - her own personal hell. The good news? She's not dead. She's just been magically transported to a small town straight out of the Hallmark channel, complete with a meddling mayor, seasonal festivals, friendly townsfolk . . . and Ben, her date from the night before.
Cam really doesn't have time for this, but in order to make it back to her real life, she must fulfil three tasks: find a career she's passionate about, help the community, and find true love. It really seems impossible.
But stuck in this pastel purgatory and forced to give Ben another chance, she starts to realise that maybe anything's possible with a change of heart . . . ______________________________
'Change of Heart is the badass feminist romcom that fans of Pleasantville and The Stepford Wives will love. It's funny, sharp, and a slow burn that will keep you on the edge of your seat' Erin La Rosa
'Full of her signature charm, steam, and laugh-out-loud moments, Falon Ballard's newest fully delivers. Change of Heart is perfect for anyone who has ever wanted to see the big-city Hallmark villain rewrite the narrative and become the unexpected heroine of her own story. I devoured this in a single, delicious sitting!' Holly James
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
At the start of this whimsical rom-com from Ballard (Right on Cue), workaholic heroine Campbell "Cam" Andrews comes across as irredeemable. She's late and horrifically rude to her blind date with pediatrician Ben Loving, insisting she knows they aren't compatible and she'd rather just answer work emails for an hour while they sit and eat in silence. This ruthless professionalism is how she made partner at her law firm by 34—but at what cost? The next day, Cam is shocked to magically awaken in the picturesque town of Heart Springs, a locale straight out of a Hallmark movie, right down to the friendly but meddling neighbors. The waitress from her blind date is there to inform her of the three tasks she must complete to return home: find a career she has a passion for, become a valuable member of the community, and experience true love. Thankfully, it turns out that Ben is there to help her achieve these goals. It's a clever riff on the classic small-town romance aesthetic and, though it takes a bit too long, it's gratifying to watch Cam grow into a better person. Readers willing to stick with her through her transformation will be rewarded.
