Another intense heart-rending, seat-gripping, sexy fantasy romance from the fantastic Ashlynn Monroe! I've always adored the way Ms. Monroe can take a concept, regardless of how serious, scary or silly the premise is, and turn it into a work of art!In Reality Hero, we meet an actual Superhero who goes by the name "Mind Man" in his hero persona and by Zane Blair in his everyday life. The incredibly sexy Zane seems to have it all. He's a superhero, saving lives & leaving women everywhere wanting him... But in his real life, it's just an everyday hum-drum job and his dreams of wanting the woman who seems to not want him back..The gorgeous, intelligent Dina Dell spent many years of her life as a youth, trapped in cages with Zane, Dina's sister Ella & some other friends, being experimented on in the most horrific ways so the scientists were able to "awaken" the children's super powers. It was a horrifying childhood & something that no one wants to relive. Dina was the only one who walked away without super powers..  Dina & Zane had a beautiful relationship, regardless of their differences until Dina realized in one moment of clarity, that she was a danger to her family & friends, because people would use her human weaknesses to exploit her family & friends, so she did the only thing she could think of doing.. She left Zane to protect them all..Flash forward a few years & Dina is struggling to make it as a TV producer in a dog-eat-dog world.. Not a day goes by that she doesn't think of Zane.. However, her programs have been less than expected lately & she heads for a last-minute save to keep her career on track.. She offers up a date with a Superhero, ala The Bachelor style.. The superhero she asks? None other than Zane..Zane agrees to participate in her show, rather unwillingly, because of his past with Dina.. Can Zane show Dina that the only perfect woman for her is him? Or will her stubborn nature not allow it? Before Zane even has a chance to start winning Dina back, her worst fears are realized when monsters from the past end up surfacing in reality & try to tear away Zane & her sister Ella.. And some don't care if Dina herself lives or dies.. But a former stalker wants Dina very much alive and has nefarious plans.. Can Zane, Dina or Ella escape before all hope is lost, along with their lives? Or is this one instance where reality wins and the good guys go down?Ashlynn keeps readers on the edge of their seat in this fantastic page-turner.. It has fantasy, drama & horror aspects yet she never lets us down with her trademarked steamy sex scenes, either.. Yum! This is another compelling, dramatic & oh-so-sexy novel by Ms. Monroe that you MUST add to your collection.. Another reason that I love Ms. Monroe's writing so much is that she knows how to take us to new worlds, yet she always keeps it real, with everyday instances & she never forgets to add in that beautiful love story that she is so incredibly adept at doing.. Definitely a book that will stay in my collection for years to come..Well done, Ashlynn!~ Vicki RosePlatinum Book ReviewsPlatinum Gives Ashlynn & "Reality Hero":4.5 Platinum Rings!
