Unsung Hero

Now, what good girl who has a naughty streak hasn’t dreamed about the
bad boy? I’m jealous of this good girl ‘cuase the bad boy lived on her
property and she got to spy on him. Anyway, this book made me swoon for
the hero. I wanted to be Dr. Kelly Ashton and get the bad boy. Jeez.
Not many books make me do that. Not many books make the characters come
right to life before me. So I love Suzanne Brockman and I can’t wait to
read the other book that’s laying around the bedroom, HOT TARGET. A+
there. This one may go on my must have list.

After a head injury and forced vacation, Navy SEAL Team Sixteen
Commander, Tom Paoletti, is back in his hometown recovering with his
Uncle Joe who raised him. When he sees twice a terrorist he spent years
tracking, The Merchant. Except no one believes him, it's written off as
a side effect of the head injury.
Kelly Ashton is a Boston pediatrician, who has moved back home to take care of her father as he dies from cancer.
Kelly loved Tom when she was 15 and he was 18. His Uncle was her father's gardener and best friend.
Woven into the book is Joe and Charles' World War Two story of heroics and a tragic love triangle.
Secondary
to Kelly and Tom, is Tom's niece Mallory and geeky comic book writer,
David, who is far too nice but persistent in befriending the defensive
teen.
Was the terrorist Tom saw real? Can Kelly give up herself to loving Tom again?
This
will remain my favorite book in the Troubleshooter's series. I am a
sucker for the bad boy returns to town and gets the good girl he always
dreamed about.
But Suzanne Brockmann isn't your typical romance
novel. There is lots of action in there too. And in this book we get
introduced to several main players throughout the series: Sam Starettt
(Texas redneck), Alyssa Locke (sharp shooter), and WildCard- computer
genius. As well, Kelly and Tom's relationship becomes more developed
throughout the series. 5 stars is not enough for me to give this book,
but it will have to do.
