Award-winning, bestselling author Lisa Renee Jones is
breaking out of series romance success into single title
with her fast-paced, paranormal romantic suspense series
full of dark danger and sizzling hot passion.
HE IS A LETHAL WEAPON…
One of an army of human soldiers injected with alien DNA,
Michael is a legend within this new race, split between good
and evil. Untamable, he has walked on the dark side and
returned to the light. Feared and misunderstood, he leaves
everything behind, including the one woman destined to be
his mate.
HE IS HER ENEMY…AND HER DESTINY…
Fate leads Michael back to Cassandra Powell, for she holds
the key to defending his comrades. With their loyalties
divided between duty and the people they love, only together
can Cassandra and Michael overcome insurmountable odds to
save humanity from the wrath of a madman.
But no ordinary woman can control a creature such as
Michael, and only one thing is clear—the world will never be
the same…

Let's go with the original tortured hero -- Heathcliff from Wuthering Heights! (Lisa Ahlstedt 1:53pm November 22, 2011)
Currently I am reading an older book that was recommended to me. The title is Scarlett by Alexandria Ripley. It's the sequel to Gone With the Wind. Currently, Rhett is the tormented Hero, and I just read a scene in the book where he lived up to that title. Whether or not he remains a Hero, I'll find out after I finish the book, but so far it's been a good read. As for Thanksgiving, my Husband and I plan on spending a quiet, cozy day here in the country with our turkey and all the trimmings. Of course the cats that adopted us will get a few scraps to help us celebrate, when they show up outside for dinner. The babies need to stay warm and continue to grow and get strong. It should be a lovely day. Happy Thanksgiving and congratulations on your book!! It sounds like an exciting read!! (Peggy Roberson 2:05pm November 22, 2011)
Tormented "hero" if I can use that word a little loosely, Othello. Truly tormented, great line.."I have loved not wisely, but all too well" His character has always had a strong impact on me. For the holidays, favorite meal and trimmings and get the tree and decorations out if not up. (Carla Carlson 3:30pm November 22, 2011)
Thank you for the Sterlingisms - especially that last one!
One of my favorite tormented heroes is Lestat de Lioncourt from Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles. I know not your typical romance hero, but still tormented all the same.
A favorite way to spend Thanksgiving, other than with what family and friends are available, is watching the Detroit Lion game. And must listen to Alice's Restaurant at 12 noon! (Cynthia Netherton 3:44pm November 22, 2011)
My favorite tormented hero would have to be Tristan in the movie, Tristan & Isolade. A great movie. My favorite way to spend Thanksgiving is with family, watching football after our huge meal with our favorite team, the Green Bay Packers! They've had an outstanding season so far and we can't wait for their next game on Thanksgiving day! We love to play games later in the evening (UNO, Yahtzee, Scrabble, or card games), and having dessert we didn't have room for after the big meal. LOVE the Giveaway and the new book sounds very good too! (Linda Luinstra 4:31pm November 22, 2011)

I'm probably one of the odd people out because a lot of people won't think he was a hero, but I loved Cole from the series, Charmed.
