Heroes
Sigh. This blog has been preempted by illness…again!!! This has not been a healthy year for me. I’m home sick, loopy on antibiotics
and just plain fuzzyheaded. Lucky for me I have my devoted hero right by my side. Isn’t he handsome? Every girl should be so lucky!
So instead of waxing poetic over heroes I’m going to direct you to a really neat (and unique) blog devoted to Christian fiction heroes. Nancy Kimball is the creator and she has done a great job of hero sharing. Check it out.

Shattered hero, Landon Grainger is featured right now and there’s a great prequel scene that author Dani Pettrey wrote just for the blog. How cool is that? And a link to a great author interview as well. So run on over there and enjoy the discussion. I’m going back to bed.

White Pearls by Shannon Taylor Vannatter
Shell doesn't have a good reputation...But no matter what everyone in Rose Bud, Arkansas, thinks of her, she's back in town with a job to do. She'll stick it out and make the best of things. But why does Ryler have to be the landscaper on this project? She was just getting her heart under control. Ryler has his own reasons for being in Rose Bud, and they don't include Shell. Spying on his birth family was going to be hard enough. He doesn't have time to worry about a woman who dumped him...even if his heart says otherwise. McKenzie’s Branson Brainteaser by Shari Barr
McKenzie and Sydney meet in Branson, Missouri, where McKenzie has been recruited to help at the Dixie Stampede. While the girls take in the sights and sounds of Silver Dollar City, they become involved in a search to find a teen girl’s long lost uncle–who is rumored to have settled near the Branson area. With no clue other than a whittled necklace with an “SS” on the back, how will they ever reunite Shara with her uncle? The Camp Club girls are on the case, and they’re not about to give up until they close the gap and reconnect Shara’s family.
The Prodigal Daughter by Linda Fulkerson
Ruled by despair, remorse, and anger, the author’s life had become a classic rendition of the cliché “What’s a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?” Desperate. Overwhelmed. Isolated. Trapped. She hit bottom.
On the elevator of life, those descending will all exit on different levels–some much lower than others. You don’t have to go all the way to the bottom. Stop now and push the “up” button. This book will show you how!

Kav, take care of yourself, and Simba, you see to it that she takes it easy. Shattered heroes do tug at the heart strings, don’t they? You can’t help but want the heroine to be their salvation. Have you seen “Silver Linings Playbook”? It fits right in that category except you have a shattered hero and heroine and it’s impossible not to want them to help each other put the pieces of their lives back together.

What a great way to wrap up our hero series – with that very handsome face and big dark eyes.
Take care, Kav. I’m thinking you need a week somewhere warm and sunny to kick this once and for all.

He is a looker, isn’t he? And yes, sunny and warm does sound very soothing which is weird for me to say because I’m not a hot weather person. But this winter has been brutal and the long work commute even more so. Someone remind me that I said that when I start complaining about the heat come June.

I’ve always been partial to dark-haired men with a little white at the temples . . . .

LOL I’m not so sure about Simba being that much of a sharing boy! Thanks for the well-wished, Marianne.
