The Hero She Deserves | Anna Hackett

I am not sure that there could be a more beautiful backdrop to fall in love than Hawaii. Unfortunately, Hollywood’s hottest actress, Hollis Stanton, is not there just to soak in the scenery and relax; there is someone after her and she needs to get out of Hollywood fast! While from the outside it appears that Hollis has everything going for her- she is really lonely.  Having relationships in Hollywood is difficult and she has a complicated relationship with her family.  So when she lands in Maui, Hawaii is really set on just relaxing and laying low until whoever is after her moves on. That is until Deputy Sheriff Sawyer Lane comes into her life! 

Deputy Sheriff Sawyer Lane is happy- he has a great life in paradise.  He gets to do what he loves in the most beautiful of places.  After being out of the military he is finally settled and life is good.  But his friends keep on him about finding someone- Sawyer is pretty reluctant and his military past still haunts him. But when the most beautiful Hollywood actress lands basically in his backyard he cannot stay away.  Sawyer is immediately drawn to Hollis and wants nothing more than to keep her safe. 

When Sawyer comes to Hollis’ rescue in the most hilarious fashion they have an immediate connection- and I love that they really didn’t fight it. These two lit the sheets on fire and the dirty talking- YES PLEASE!!!!  One of the things I love most about Anna Hackett’s books is how fast paced they are- you really get immersed in the book and never want to put it down! Hackett effortlessly moves the storyline along while building the connection and relationship with the characters, and there is always a lot of action and running from the bad guys; which I love! Anna Hackett has quickly become one of my favorite romantic suspense authors! Her stoic heroes are always so alpha and protective, where her heroines are fierce and dynamic! I have especially loved this series as we get peaks into previous characters’ lives and we never know where Anna is going to take us next! If you enjoy a romantic suspense book that is seriously steamy with a heavy dose of action this book and series is a must read for you!
