He's ready to heal. But life, and love, have other plans.

Picking up immediately after "A Tortured Soul", Paul Robertson enters his second year at Westmouth University still carrying the scars of his past. Encouraged by friends – including the ever-loyal Imogen and Mark, and an unlikely mentorship from movie star Chloë Goodman – Paul tentatively decides it's time to open his wounded heart again.

A summer placement at his mentor Will Brown's law firm brings new faces, including a cute administrative apprentice who is 'just his type.' Paul is forced to confront his own insecurities and the complexities of dating after loss. And there's Alannah, a competitive ghost from his past whose initial animosity transforms into an unexpected partnership on the badminton court, revealing vulnerabilities hidden beneath her prickly exterior.

But just as Paul navigates these new personal connections, a professional crisis looms. Will's law firm faces closure, threatening the livelihoods of people Paul cares about. Armed with his unexpected inheritance and insights from his studies, Paul sees a way to help, thrusting him into a world of business negotiations and high-stakes decisions he never anticipated.

Juggling his studies, burgeoning romantic relationships, the intense dynamic with Alannah, and the pressure to save the firm, Paul is tested like never before. Can he find a path forward, make peace with his past, and truly allow himself to find happiness?

A Wounded Heart is the gripping third book in the Paul Robertson Saga, continuing his emotional journey of healing, love, and self-discovery within the interconnected world of the Westmouthshire Novels.
