Heart of Stone Trilogy Box Set

by K.M. Scott

For the first time, all three Heart of Stone novels are together in the Heart of Stone Trilogy. Get lost in the love story between Tristan and Nina that readers have fallen for, and see why this New York Times bestselling story is a fan favorite.

Crash Into Me
Tristan Stone was powerful, commanding, sex incarnate. And he wore it all so well. From the moment his mesmerizing gaze met mine, I had no choice but surrender to everything he was. His power. His decadence. His passion. He was all I never knew I needed.

He wanted to possess me, and I wanted to be his everything. All I had to do was accept what he offered. But everything has a price.

The world he gave me fulfilled my wildest dreams, but would that be enough when the past crashed into the present?

Fall Into Me
Wealthier and more powerful than most men his age, Tristan Stone merely has to give voice to his desires and whatever he wants is his. Money has given him the ability to say nothing and no one is beyond his reach.

Except for Nina. Stripped of her memory after an accident, she doesn't remember the man who loves her. Now he must find a way to show her why she fell in love with him, but the past is always just a step behind, threatening to take her away forever.

Unsure of everything about the past four years, Nina believes that Tristan loves her. But will the secrets he holds tear them apart just when she needs him most?

Give In To Me
The third book in the Heart of Stone series concludes the sensual and emotional story of Tristan and Nina that began in Crash Into Me and continued in Fall Into Me...

Tristan Stone has lived a life other men would kill for. Literally. But all the money, women, and fast cars mean nothing to him since Nina came into his life. Danger lurks around every turn with enemies wearing friendly faces. Whatever it takes, he'll protect the woman he loves because without her, life isn't worth living.

Nina Edwards had no idea of the world Tristan would give her. All her dreams have come true, but with the good comes the bad, and this world of his has more than enough of that. For love, though, she'll face not only Tristan's demons but anyone who stands in her way of finally finding happiness with the man she loves.

Crash Into Me

I have to say at first I hated Tristan for being the ever domineering alpha male, that was broody, dark and constantly hot and cold. However, the more I read the story, the more I understood why he is that way. Yes, it has an alpha male multimillionaire and the young female in trouble, that seems to be a trend in novels, but it is so much more. I absolutely loved reading this series and couldn't put it down until I finished all 4 books. K.M. Scott and made me a fan of hers for life.

Tristan Stone, sole heir to the Stone Worldwide fortune wants for nothing, not even love. Nina, graduate of art studies, wants to be a curator in a big museum, but has to do her time is smaller studios, sometimes doing things as being a servant during a showing. This is where she sees the captivating Tristan Stone, who she is immediately drawn took despite the beautiful women surrounding him. Tristan knows more about Nina than he originally lets on and wants to do what he can to make her work for him, including signing a 6 month contract to purchase art pieces doe his hotel suites.

Her tenacity, honesty and questioning of all he does, has broken down his walls. Finding himself falling for her complicates matters and the secrets his is hiding about her father. Without realizing what is happening, they find each other needing to be each other's everything. Can this tumultuous relationship withstand the secrets and the angst of not being together? It will leave you in a cliffhanger which was not my favorite part, but luckily I own all of them so it was an immediate transition into the next story.



Fall Into Me

At the ending of the first book, Nina is in a car accident and remembers nothing of the past 4 years, including her engagement and undying love for Tristan Stone. Trying not to make the same mistakes by keeping a secrets, but not knowing when would be a good time to explain it all, Tristan must also find a way for Nina to see that they are what each other needs to breathe. I have to say that I was completely heart-broken for each of them. For Nina to lose the last four years including her father's murder and not realizing how in love she is with Tristan, and for Tristan who has finally found a reason to live. Luckily, it didn't take Nina long to realize that the pull she is constantly feeling for him is their undying love for each other.

Unfortunately, Tristan being a man, is making the same mistakes with the secret about her father. I know why he wants to pull away from her, but dammit could you be less of an asshole and just accept that she is your everything and you cannot survive without her. And I have to say this, I hate her damn sister. Could she be any more of a jealous bitch.

This series will leave you anxiously awaiting the next book. Buy them all together. K.M. Scott has created a series that will knock you on your ass begging for more. I am in love with Tristan and Nina's story and can't wait to see if they can ever find out the whole truth and protect each other from the outside forces trying to tear them apart.



Give into Me

Will all of the secrets and the twists and turning finally be brought to the surface? Can Nina and Tristan survive all that has happened to them? This dramatic conclusion to the ever amazing Heart of Stone Series leaves you completely wasted emotionally for these two characters.

Damn could these two have any more difficulty with finding and keeping happiness. Once again Tristan has made a decision without truly thinking about what it would not only do to Nina but to himself too. Doing what he thinks is best for both of them, he leaves the country and Nina behind. Tristan trying to take the target off of Nina, sets off to uncover the who, what, and why of her father's death. Nina becomes a recluse in Tristan's home and sends messages daily to remind him how much they need each other. Even though she never hears from him, he hears and sees each message and keeps track of her constantly through his connections.

I can't say enough about this series. These characters have infiltrated my brain and heart. Scott has created a fan for life with all that she writes and will write in the future. And I would do anything to be a part of her beta readers. She is an truly awe-inspiring writer. Thank you.


Ever After

I am so in love with novellas that wrap up the story line to see that they finally get their happily ever after. To see that they finally have that all encompassing love and all that comes with it was amazing to read. Tristan and Nina or my ultimate book couple with all that they went through to finally find happiness. Knowing how Tristan is so utterly in love with Nina.


K. M. Scott has done a remarkable job of creating a series that holds everything that I love in reading. Drama, regret, flaws and a sexy as hell alpha male.

Crash into Me Review: ALL MY STARS!!! I really did not like this book it moves like molasses in January. In my opinion there is no suspense or romance. I didn't like Tristian he's very manipulative I almost felt he was grooming Nina. I didn't care for Nina she is way to trusting and naive and accepting. The only reason I finished was I started it. In my opinion it's not worth reading.

Fall into Me Review: Fall into Me starts where Crash into Me left off. In my opinion Tristian doesn't change one bit he is still manipulating Nina. I also felt like Tristian was grooming Nina to stay with him. I really don't like Tristian. I'm a little more tolerate of Nina since the accident. Fall into Me is very slow moving and very lacking in suspense.

Give in to Me Review: Well Give in to Me was not any better than the first two. I can't stand Tristian he is completely ridiculous. I just felt like he was grooming Nina to do what he wants on the premises he wants to be happy. Nina drove me crazy, she should have just said bye, bye Tristian I'm over your crap. All the suspense in this book is at the end. Overall I would not recommend.

I didn't find this series worth the money. I didn't find any suspense and Nina and Tristian are just annoying.

[Lisa · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was the perfect blend of romance, suspense and mystery for me. Tristan and Nina fitted together and, yes, both have their faults and both made you want to scream at them at various points but when it worked, it worked.

So a chance meeting (or not so-chance meeting)brings Nina into Tristan's life and a proposal that will change her life forever. Now Tristan has an ulterior motive for wanting to meet Nina but that will reveal itself as the story unfolds. Nina is catapulted into Tristan's world of wealth and feels like a fish out of water, not really understanding why Tristan has chosen her over the women in his circle. This comes out quite strongly in the jealousy that Nina feels when Tristan goes out to social events without her.

Tristan can come across as quite cold and restrained in expressing himself but once his upbringing is understood and recent history, you get why he is the way he is. It is through Nina's administrations that he starts to feel more comfortable in expressing himself and his feelings. I loved the letters that he would leave for Nina; they were an insight into a man who is struggling with the concept of love and expressing it in person.

There is plenty of danger that can and will separate them on numerous occasions throughout the trilogy. The danger relates to a secret that Nina's father found out about Stone Worldwide before he was shot and killed. A current board member is set on stopping that secret from coming out at all costs and will stop at nothing to protect it. It is full of sit on the edge of your seat moments, laugh out loud moments and scream at the characters to stop being stupid moments. This frustration you feel with the characters is one of the reasons that you will keep reading, in the hopes that they will learn from them.

on the fence

I really liked the first 2 books but honestly, by the time I got to book 3 I was kind of tired of it. The main reason is that there was a part in the middle of the book that I found myself skimming through n
*****SPOILERS*****
When Tristan went away for months, it reminded me of that Twilight book where Edward went away for a long time. Twilight was one of my favorite series, I absolutely could not put it down. But thT one book was rather boring where it kept telling how miserable she was without him nSame thing here. The beginning and end were good but not all of it.
I really liked the characters but a couple of other things I didn't really like:
1. The "C" word. I'm no prude. I like erotic novels. I just personally don't think the "C" word is sexy. It's a turn-off for me.
2. When Nina ran away to Venice, I just thought that was stupid. This woman who apparently can't live without Tristan just takes off to another country without a word and won't answer his texts because of something her sister showed her. She didn't even bother to ask him if it were true or to explain what actually happened that scene didn't match up with the character the author had portrayed.
I really I liked the series but by the time book 3 ended, I was thankful it was over.

[Lisa · Rating 5 out of 5]

This trilogy is AH-MAZING!!!!!!! I don't typically review series/trilogies, because I rarely get through the entire series without giving up, or forget about the characters until the next book comes out. This trilogy definitely warrants a review!

We first meet Nina working as a gallery assistant, working one night at a showing. She sees mysterious Tristan from across a crowded room, and he wastes no time introducing himself to Nina. He offers her a job opportunity to nurture her love and education of art.

Their relationship begins somewhat unconventionally, but becomes a passionate love affair. However, secrets and lies rear their ugly heads, creating unexpected twists and turns throughout the ENTIRE trilogy. Just when I thought I had things figured out....BOOM!

"Tristan Stone and Nina Edwards. Two souls worlds apart, no matter if we lived in the same house or not."

This story was such a satisfying read. Aside from the romance and passion (this book had it in spades), it also had mystery and intrigue that kept me guessing until the VERY END. If you're looking for an EPIC romance, this trilogy should be your next read! Crossfire series fans will love this trilogy.

This series should be read in order: Crash In To Me, Fall In To Me, Give In To Me. They are NOT stand-alone novels.

[Fierce & Fab Promotions · Rating 5 out of 5]

I have faithfully followed Tristan and Nina's story. I've cried and cheered for them every step of the way. Certain times, I've wanted to strangle them both and many times, I've come close to damaging my I-pad as a result of their actions, but through it all, my love for them has never waivered. K.M. did a remarkable job at developing these characters and making us all fall in-love with Tristan and Nina, despite their flaws. The transformation and growth of both Tristan and Nina's characters throughout the series was astounding.

The Heart of Stone Series is hands down, one of the best series of all time, It is beyond phenomenal! Tristan and Nina take you on an intense emotional journey filled with angst, despair and hope, that will elicit such powerful emotions out of you and will keep your heart racing, leave you feeling breathless and yearning for more. This series is so much more than your typical love story; it's a remarkable story of sacrifice, courage, redemption and the perseverance. Tristan and Nina will always have a special place in my heart.

[buzy_reading · Rating 2 out of 5]

This trilogy was boring and redundant. I wish the author would have stayed focused on the search for the truth as to why Karl was looking to harm Nina and Tristan. The detective part of the story was the most interesting. I have never read a story where two people are torn apart so many times. Too many distractions. The times they did spend together was spent in the bedroom. There was no quality to the relationship. Nina continued to act like a jealous brat. It was too long. This trilogy could have been one novel. A lot of material was unnecessary and could have been omitted to help move the story along. That was a waste of time. It was a good price, but is lost precious time that I could have spent reading a better story. I made it through all three books, but I will not read anything else by this author.

Long winded

Heart of Stone book one is about a young woman named Nina who meets rich and sexy tycoon Tristan. The two fall in love and it seems Nina has found her Prince charming to run off into the sunset. However things are not what they seem and Nina is in for a whirlwind of emotions and danger to reach her happily ever after.

Good characters some you'll love others... not so much. I thought the first book was alright. But book 2 and 3 were not so great. I found them to be long and boring and I began to flip through just to get to the end. After awhile Nina and Tristans problems became the same problem. Alright we get he has trust issues, can we please move on from this.

All in all if I could go back and buy this book over I would not. Waste of money of you ask me.

Can't give it 4 or 5 stars

This trilogy started out on good note for me. After finishing the second book, it felt like it took forever to finish. Second book could have been reduced and combined with the third book as I have found when there are more than two books. The author drug the story line way too long and could anything else happen to these two. Chemistry was off the charts for the Tristan and Nina but the sex scenes became repetitive. Every time Nina turned around she was finding out something else Tristan or his family possibly did. Overall a good series just not y favorite at all

Heart Of Stone

Wow, Awesome story about Tristan Stone and his meeting Nina, there is so much history, before they meet, and then so many secrets after they meet. A meeting, chance? Attraction, his need to protect her, the jealousy, there is so much between the two that is hidden, so many, many secrets. This is a great series, a must read, full of suspense, love, lust, lies, hidden secrets, will keep you wanting more, cannot wait for next book.

[Pam Bryant · Rating 5 out of 5]

Excellent!

Wow! This was a great series! I really enjoyed this set of books. They were very captivating, I was hanging on every word. Great set of characters. I loved the way Tristan and Nina fell so in love with each other. They had it rough, but they stood the test of time. One thing I didn't like though, was the way Nina's sister treated her. I recommend this book to all romance readers.

[Leslie · Rating 5 out of 5]

Absolutely loved this series! Did not want it to end! You can't help but fall in love with these characters and hope they find their way back to each other. This series has a lot of twists and turns to keep you turning the pages well into the night. I suggest you buy the entire set at the same time cuz your not going to be happy until you read them all!

[Rebecca Fitts · Rating 5 out of 5]

This series was captivating! I gave the first two books 5 stars and the third book 4.5 stars. I love the characters and their passion. There is a lot of emotion and drama the reader can feel as they read, which is great on the authors part. Great writing, heartfelt, love, forgiveness, sexy, hot, alpha, and lust are all some of the words to describe this series!!! I loved it!!! :)

[Kelly Deems · Rating 4 out of 5]

Nina and Tristan's story pulled me in every step of the way. I screamed, I cried, I cheered and I cringed as I turned each page. I was completely enraptured by Nina's devotion and so glad she never gave up. At times I felt like the story was getting a little stale and I wanted it to just move on already but overall three thumbs up! Scott has done it again!

[Silver Passion · Rating 4 out of 5]

Thrilled to the end

Heart of Stone is a very well thought out trilogy from start to finish. Love, hot and steamy deliciousness and a crazy storyline. I am usually pretty good at guessing the ending, but this time I was only partially right. K.M Scott threw my for a loop, which I loved. This book is exciting and passionate.

[Azzie Parks · Rating 5 out of 5]

Couldn't get a better deal

This was a great set.I had gotten book 1 some time ago but when I saw the price for all 3 I jumped on it.Tristan and Nina was the book couple I was waiting for the HEA. It took them a minute to get there,but they made it.True love is what it's about.Keep up the good work.

[Danielle Sanchez · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow I really loved these stories. This series had it all; the sexy billionaire, strong female lead, suspense, deep love, twists and turns and a whole lot of story to keep you interested. As is always my complaint, I loved them so much I am truly going to miss Tristan and Nina.

[Leah · Rating 4 out of 5]

Loved this story of Tristan and Nina. What a serious roller coaster ride these two went through. The ending was great because Tristan dreamt of having twin girls with the names of both his and Nina's mother. He was telling them that he was a pirAte and Nina a princess.

[Tracey · Rating 3 out of 5]

3.5 I liked it as far as steamy mucked up alpha male stories go they had a pretty good run there was once when I thought the author could have left a little drama out because it seemed too contrived but over all I was entertained.

[Teresa · Rating 5 out of 5]

Truely a beautiful story of Tristan, a controlling billionaire with a past he's not proud of and Nina, a naive twenty something who's looked for love ever after and believes she's not worthy. This trilogy will have you begging for more and K M Scott gives it and more.

[Julie Blankenship · Rating 5 out of 5]

I did enjoy this book and recommend it to romance lovers. Some mystery involved which helps the plog. I did not like when the two were separated it seemed to go on and on, but of course it did end and as typical with all romance novels has a happy ending but some surprises.

[Lisa Ellia · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow great series!!

Tristian and Ninas story will pull you in from the very start. They had some very interesting hurdles, but never gave up on each other!! Do yourself a favor and don't miss this series! One of my favorites!

[Karlene Pitters · Rating 5 out of 5]

I love this series and hated to see it end. It was romance mixed with danger. I love that concept. Tristan was the ultimate hero. He wasn't afraid to show his feelings for Nina. He knew what he wanted and went after it.
