An Imperfect Hero

Finally an imperfect hero! This book was really good despite the misleading title, which by the way as nothing what so ever to do with the story's plot. The story of Rachael, a concert pianist and Orlando a retired Royal Air Force, has several layers to it and draws you in within the first few pages. These two meet by chance at the most unlikely of places, beside Orlando's younger brother's grave site, two strangers whose lives are both dramatically changing not for the better, or so they think. Rachael is being all but forced to marry a man she doesn't love, both rather despises, meanwhile Orlando is suffering from a debilitating disease that is causing him to slowly loose his vision. Neither Rachael nor Orlando has anything in common so they think. This is a story of two people who both going through traumatic, yet eye opening events in their life, and without knowing or understanding it at first, they inevitably become one another's guardian angels, as well as discovering they are more courageous and brave then they've ever thought themselves, it takes getting to know one another through friendship and finally falling in love with each other to make them realize their inner strengths and gifts I don't want to spoil the plot for future readers, but I will say that this was a pleasant surprise coming from this particular author whom I've only read one other book by, she put me in the mind of one of my favorite authors Maggie Cox. Both these authors write about believe characters and believable subject matters where in the case of this story you end up rooting for both the hero and the heroine because they are so likable, neither is overly barring or too meek, mild and naive to be unbelievable. I would definitely recommend this as a nice Sunday afternoon read. Happy Reading!
