I'm a sucker for anthologies because you get to sample a bunch of awesome authors. This collection focuses on your everyday heroes (DUH) and they are some mighty fine heroes. I really like how this anthology is broken up by spice level (the second one I've read to do this and it is *chef's kiss*). And once I saw that Naomi Valkyrie had a story in this anthology, I was game! I absolutely love her writing style and she didn't disappoint with "Unexpected Heroes." This is a MM, small-town romance filled with suspense. Valkyrie packs romance, suspense, angst, and spice into Jude and Elijah's story and does it really well. I really like how she developed these characters as well as the plot line.
The next story that caught my eye was "Into the Flames" by Dawn Luedecke. Looking for a hot fireman and a photojournalist (who happens to be working for the fire department) who can't cook AND who happen to live in the same apartment complex? Well, this is the story for you! This is also a second chance romance (which I'm quickly becoming a sucker for) and it's just really cute. Dalton and Sadie's story is funny and sweet with a little bit (OK...maybe a lot) of spice and an HEA.
Another story that had me on the edge of my seat was Heroes & Hurricanes by TK Eldridge. I'd classify this as more of a romantic thriller because it was definitely suspenseful at times but don't let that put you off...the romance and spice were there as well. I really loved the plot line of this one. It really kept me on edge and turning the pages. Definitely a must read out of this anthology!
Grab a copy of this anthology now! All of these stories are beginners for series and they will hook you right in so if you are looking for a new series...check some of these out!
