No woman could resist him … especially the one with the most at stake.
Once voted the Sexiest Man Alive, Jericho Beaumont had dominated the box office before his fall from grace. Now poised for a comeback, he wants the role of Laramie bad enough to sign an outrageous contract with top producer Kate O'Laughlin—one that gives her the authority to supervise JB's every move, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.
The last thing Kate wants to do is babysit her leading man, and Jericho Beaumont may be more than she can handle. A player in every sense of the word, he is an actor of incredible talent—and a man with a darkly haunted past. Despite her better judgment, Kate's attraction flares into explosive passion, and she is falling fast. But is she being charmed by the real Jericho or the superstar who dazzles the world?

"Very good as usual. I missed the action and the suspense but the book was good. Very sweet and tender. I can relate with heroine doubts about loving an actor. Difficult to be sure when he's acting and when he's real himself. Expecially if he's a good actor and this one was really good! "
— Mareli (4 out of 5 stars)
“Suzanne Brockmann demonstrates that drama, laced with a gritty edge, is definitely her forte. Heartthrob marks her outstanding entry into mainstream fiction.”
— RT Book Reviews (4½ stars)" This is the first book I've read by this author. It was really good. I went into it not knowing what to expect. I can honestly say I was satisfied. "
— Teresa, 2/13/2014" Loved this book and the characters, too. Such a different book from SB's Troubleshooters. I liked the darkness of the story and how the characters overcame the adversities. Great romance, too! "
— AnneOK, 2/11/2014" Great read. Oooh so funny and moving. Loved it. "
— Marleen, 1/29/2014" Wow! This is an entertaining book. Can't stand the heroine, Kate. But the story is terrific. "
— Alicia, 1/22/2014" I love this book and often re-read it. It's just so powerful in so many ways. "
— Kate, 1/19/2014" This is nothing like most of Brockmann's books, not being about SEAL's, but an actor. This book made me cry, which is saying something. LOVE it. "
— Dayna, 1/16/2014" Despite the cheesy title, I loved this book. This is my first Suzanne Brockmann novel and I will be reading more, much more of her! Her characters were written with depth and flaws and I just devoured it. "
— Ellen, 1/13/2014" was not very impressed kept think I'd stop listening then something cool would happen then it would get boring this happened over and over surprised I made it through the whole thing "
— Val, 1/12/2014" My very favourite Suz Brockmann evah. "
— Kaetrin, 12/27/2013" Another hot and sexy seal conquers the problems of a fiesty young woman!! "
— Joene, 12/7/2013" Amazingly romantic. I cried several times throughout this book. "
— MsOPP, 11/28/2013" Fluff to listen to while sewing, but not the good kind. I just really didn't like either of the main characters all that much. I thought they were both selfish assholes. I did like Suzy/Jamal though. "
— Darci, 8/30/2013" I think this is one of my favorite Suzanne Brockmann books, with Prince Joe running neck in neck. But I loved all of her SEAL series. "
— Corrin, 7/31/2013" This book was okay. I found it hard to believe the "feelings" seen in the characters eyes. They must be pyschic to know what the other person/character is thinking. So, the assumptions were hard to believe. "
— Wendy, 6/30/2013" So far this book has been very good. I like the humor and the situations that have come up. Entertaining. I am about half way through. "
— Ty, 4/25/2013" Very good as usual. I missed the action and the suspense but the book was good. Very sweet and tender. I can relate with heroine doubts about loving an actor. Difficult to be sure when he's acting and when he's real himself. Expecially if he's a good actor and this one was really good! "
— Mareli, 11/9/2012" Uh, wow . . . I loooved the book! Read it 3 times more and yes ladies, I definitely recommend it! "
— Jessica, 4/26/2012" Not up to Suzanne's current standards, but a fun read. "
— S, 3/19/2012" My favorite Brockmann book not to star Jules Cassidy. I am so impressed by the depth of emotion in this book, the way it looks at addiction and sexual assault and recovery head on, and how much I loved every main character. "
— Sheila, 12/15/2011" Although this book wasn't perfect, I was utterly smitten with Jed and captivated by the story. "
— Erinaceina, 10/6/2011" Fluff to listen to while sewing, but not the good kind. I just really didn't like either of the main characters all that much. I thought they were both selfish assholes. I did like Suzy/Jamal though. "

— Erinaceina, 12/14/2010" I have to admit this is one of Brockmann's better romances (and by that I mean non-TS books). Jed and Kate were both likable and the side story about Jamaal and Susie was sweet. "
— MRS, 11/25/2010" My favorite Brockmann book not to star Jules Cassidy. I am so impressed by the depth of emotion in this book, the way it looks at addiction and sexual assault and recovery head on, and how much I loved every main character. "

— S, 6/26/2010" 3.5 rating. <br/> <br/>I felt the story was decent, but the writing and scenes could have been tighter... Also, the psychological denouement was just a little too pat for me "
— Alina, 6/17/2010" Loved this book and the characters, too. Such a different book from SB's Troubleshooters. I liked the darkness of the story and how the characters overcame the adversities. Great romance, too! "
