Her Kind of Hero: An Anthology

by Diana Palmer

The Last Mercenary Micah Steele was all set to retire his gun--until a woman from his past was kidnapped by his sworn enemy.

Customer Reviews

Very good--Clean

Fantastic- Looks like it just came of the printer--clean Arrived within the time limit--Very pleased

VERY GOOD

Definitely a good read - highly recommend. I have been on a Diana Palmer kick lately, and this book does not disappoint. The women are both good characters, not too weak as some tend to say in the other books. But the men are amazing. Hard to put this book down

Double Your Reading Pleasure!

The Last Mercenery - I haven't read the books of Diana Palmer's series 'Long Tall Texans' in order. I first saw Callie and Micah mentioned in'Boss Man' and wanted to read their story. So I was very happy when this was re-issued. Micah is another of Diana Palmer's Alpha Male heroes - strong, elusive, in a dangerous profession, and hiding his true feelings in regards to Callie. It's not until Callie is placed in danger by an enemy of Micah's, that he can admit to himself just how much she means to him. He saves her from his enemy and whisks her away to his private island, where he protects her, seduces her and falls in love with her. When the threat is over, Callie returns to Jacobsville (who knew such a little town would have so much happening!), with Micah following soon after, and admitting his feelings for her. Callie is another beautifully written heroine from Diana Palmer. Of course, she's in love with Micah, but never imagined that he felt the same way. In fact, she thought he hated her. Its not until she's in danger and he rescues her that she wonders if there's more to Micah that his dislike of her. Micah and Callie are a beautifully written couple. The story is pure Diana Palmer - page turning good. Matt Caldwell: Texas Tycoon - My first introduction to Matt and Leslie was in the story 'Lawless' and I'm glad I finally got the chance to read their story. Leslie is running from her past. Her mother killed a man and shot her daughter when Leslie was 17. Hoping to live a quiet life, Leslie moves on, but several years later, she's hounded by an energetic, career climbing reporter, determined to make a movie out of her life. It's how she ends up working for Matts younger cousin at Matts company. Her first meeting with Matt doesn't go well. He makes her so nervous, she falls off a horse, making the injury she received from the gunshot wound worse. Matt is furious. He cant believe it when she flinches away from him, and turns to his cousin. Matt is sure that Leslie is hiding something, and he's determined to find out what. Leslie is just as determined not to tell him. Amongst believing lies told to him by another woman, accusing Leslie of going after him or his cousin for money and then finding out the truth about Leslie, Matt falls in love with her, not admitting it until she's about to leave town, leave him. This book is very good, one of Diana Palmer's best. The interactions between Matt and Leslie are well crafted. The story is intriguing and I couldn't put this one down until I'd read the very last page. Diana Palmer's formula for romance is very simple. I enjoy reading anything she writers, without exception and I always know I'm in for a good read whenever I pick up a Diana Palmer book. These 2 stories are no excpetion.

Diana Palmer at her best

This was what you would expect from Diana Palmer. She has a style of her own and I enjoy her story lines.
