ARC Review Holding Out for a Hero (Men in Uniform) by Codi Gary
Holding Out For A Hero is much more than the title. Hannah and Blake are two lonely hearts searching for a chance to be whole. Hannah is stuck in her fantasy of what a perfect man should be. Blake is living on heartbreaking memories of a love gone too soon. Basically, Hannah is leading with her heart and Blake his head. Problem is in order to stand a chance at building a future and finding happiness, they have to listen to both head and heart. Not one or the other. One of the reasons that I am a fan of Ms. Gary is that she is not afraid to show the vulnerabilities of the hero. The true measure of a man is not only his strength but the ability to expose his weaknesses as well. Holding Out For a Hero is a story that exudes the power of faith, the strength of love and the pain of moving on in the face of grief. Relate-able for anyone whose ever loved and loss. ( )
