The attraction between Brent Berkheimer and Scott Spearman peels the wallpaper, but Brent is Scott’s boss, and they’re both too professional to go beyond flirting. Their priorities realign after Scott is badly injured in an accident that costs him his hearing, and Brent realizes what is truly important.... He wants Scott.
Scott pushes Brent away at first, fearing a new romance will just add to his problems, but perhaps he will find unexpected strength and solace in Brent’s support as he struggles to communicate with the world in a new way.
Just as they decide the chance of a happy future together is worth the risk, Scott and Brent discover darker challenges in their way - including evidence that the "accident" Scott suffered may not have been so accidental.

"Happy ever after is not always easy."
What made the experience of listening to Heart Unheard the most enjoyable?
Getting to see the characters as more than just words on a page.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Heart Unheard?
When Brent acts without thinking about it, without letting the past define his future.
What does Greg Tremblay bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
He gives the characters a voice and allows the listener to experience Brent and Scott's emotions in a way that's not possible just reading the book.
Any additional comments?
There's this broken beauty to both these men, Brent still hears echos of the past that haunt him and Scott is having trouble handling the constant silence. They really do complete each other. Brent showing Scott that he is so much more than a man that can't hear. While Scott teaches Brent how to open up and let the people that care about him help him.
I loved how Tremblay truly embodied the story with his narration. He speaks too loud at times because it's exactly what a man that could hear not long ago would do. He speaks in monotone when reading the notes people write or type to Scott, and it completely works for the story.
Obviously, I recommend this one, very much so.

"A beautiful, touching story"
This is a book two in Hearts entwined series. It can stand alone but if you read them in order you understand the other recurring characters much more.
Brent has been interested in Scott since he took over the office position in his friend Trent's Garage (This happens in Heart Unseen). Scott is a lot younger than Brent and also his boss so he hasn't acted on his feelings. It has been two years and he just keeps wanting Scott more and more, and Scott's flirtations don't help.
Tragedy strikes leaving Scott deaf and Brent decides he has waited long enough and to take a chance.
There is lots of angst, trials, and tribulations as Scott struggles with his new disability and they both try to make the relationship work. There is a twist when it comes out who hit Scott.
The narration was lovely and well fitting with the story. The pacing is good and you can tell who is speaking. Ar first I thought it was choppy until I realized that was how the narrator was making it known the characters were writing or signing.
If you like office romance, Boss/employee, physically challenged, and May/December you will love this.
