Lisa Kay's Reviews > Everyone Loves a Hero: And That's the Problem

★★★½☆ (This is a review of the audiobook.) Nicely narrated by Tanya Eby.

This wasn’t as bad as I feared after reading some reviews; however, it wasn’t as good as I’d anticipated, way back a year ago when I pre-ordered it from audible.com in 2013.

Nothing new under the sun here, and some of it was too much of the same-old-same-old. I liked the characters well enough; yet, while rooting for them, I thought their relationship was zooming forward too fast and at times uneven in pace.

Some parts were excellent (I really like that the hero encouraged the heroine’s artistic ability); nevertheless, I found it surprisingly easy to set aside when a “buddy read” was moved forward. Then, due to the angst-y-ness of their relationship, reluctant to pick back up when said “buddy read” book was finished. I guess that says a lot. However, that angst could make it just your cup of tea.
