In NOBODY'S HERO we get Karla and Adam's story. Their story
goes back many years, the two meeting when Karla was only
sixteen years old and running away from home. Years later
she is still finding ways to be with Adam. Karla loved Adam
all those years ago and still loves him to this day but Adam
is running; running away from his past and continues to
keeps Karla at arm's length. Yet the two make a deal; she
will be his slave. Adam thinks to push Karla past her
comfort zone and scare her away but he does not realize the
strength of her feelings for him and the determination that
Karla has.
Once again Kallypso Masters does a wonderful job of bringing
her characters and their world to life. I am a big fan of
this author and this series and cannot get enough. Each
couple endears themselves to this reader and Adam and Karla
are no different. I loved watching Karla and Adam discover
their way. He is as stubborn as one can get but in the end
we get to see what a good man that he truly is. Adam may not
think he is anyone's hero but he proves just how wrong that
is. Adam is laden down with so much guilt about things that
happened in the past. I loved seeing Adam work through his
pain and reach for his happiness. I enjoyed watching both
Adam and Karla figure out their feelings and just where they
want to go in their relationship. Both learn their own
lessons in this book but one that they both learn together
is that love is strong and will always find a way in and
that they should always take any second chance that you are
given.
Readers should also remember that this book is part of a
series and should be read in order as well as the BDSM that
is featured in their story. The scenes are hot and graphic
but we see the love that the two have throughout this book.
NOBODY'S HERO is another emotional and heartwarming read
from
this author. It had me laughing one minute and crying the
next.
Retired Marine Master Sergeant Adam Montague has battled
through four combat zones, but now finds himself running
from Karla Paxton, who has declared war on his heart. With a
twenty-five-year age difference, he feels he should be her
guardian and protector, not her lover. But Karla's knack for
turning up in his bed at inopportune times is killing his
resolve to do the right thing. Karla isn't a little girl
anymore-something his body reminds him of every chance it
gets.
But their age difference is only part of the problem. Fifty-
year-old Adam has been a guardian and protector for lost and
vulnerable souls most of his life, but a secret he has run
from for more than three decades has kept him emotionally
unable to admit he can love anyone. Will she be able to
lower his guard long enough to break down the defenses
around his heart and help him put the ghosts from his past
to rest? In her all-out war to get Adam to surrender his
heart, can the strong-willed Goth singer offer herself as
his submissive-and at what cost to herself? Damián Orlando
and Savannah (Savi) Baker also will reunite in this book and
begin their journey to a happy ending in Nobody's Perfect.
The books in the Rescue Me series are not stand-alone
stories. Important events in the lives of this couple are
shown in the first two books (Masters at Arms and Nobody's
Angel, a combined print volume). Should be read in order.
