A Hero`s Heart by Amber Daulton
Danger and Love at Christmas
In A Hero`s Heart, DEA agent Jarrett Brandt returns home after several years and runs into his one true love and former girlfriend Marissa. Though he never intended to start things up with her again, love and fate had other plans.
Romantic suspense is one of my favorite sub-genres to read and write. I love second chance stories about damaged heroes with self-esteem issues, and Jarrett fits the bill. He made a lot of mistakes as a teenager and young adult, but finally got his priorities straight and cleaned up. He`s a classic romance hero, in my opinion, because he`s learned from his past and now puts his life on the line to help others. He`s selfless, strong, and understanding, which makes him a swoon-worthy book boyfriend. Besides, he drives a motorcycle. What could be hotter?
Most romantic suspense books I`ve read aren`t centered around major holidays, so that makes A Hero`s Heart different from what I conceive as the norm. Christmas-themed stories often bring to mind hot chocolate, sleigh rides, snowmen, and a jolly man in a red suit. Most of the time, those stories are sweet, heartfelt romances with little to no sex, and there`s nothing wrong with that. I love reading those stories! If I could choose, however, I prefer adrenaline-laced, action-filled romances that take the hero and heroine through the ringer, both in and out of the bedroom. Just because it`s Christmas, the time to be merry, doesn`t mean the bad guys have gone home to twiddle their thumbs and wait out the New Year. In this genre, danger is always lurking around the corner and it`s not something to be taken lightly, as Jarrett and Marissa eventually realize.
As with all true romance books, no matter what happens during the course of the story, one important thing remains the same—the romance. The hero and heroine may achieve their happily ever after in different ways, but as long as the reader is smiling, then it`s a good book.

16 years agoAww I’m sowwy, it was extremely easy, it was the first place I looked. 😆 I felt dumb though cuz I didn’t scroll all the way down, so I figured the answer would be in your trailer…half way through watching it I noticed the answer at the bottom. 😳
I know I just won, but I’m gonna answer this cuz I’m bored, obviously I don’t expect you to put my name in the jar.
Fav. Vampire movie…I’m going to say Interview w/ the Vampire…and Dracula Dead and Loving It! (I know that’s a comedy but I love it!)
Fav. Vampire book, I can’t answer because I read a lot of vampire books and I love all of them in their own way. But the two series I’m currently into are Kimbely Rayes’ Lil Marchette series and Gerry Beartlett’s “Real Woman” series. 🙂 As for Weres…well there’s weres in the Lil Marchette series too and I like them. But I also read The accidental Werewolf by Dakota Cassidy and it’s HILARIOUS…so was Accidentally Dead too (Vampire)

I haven’t read those books, looks like I’ll be adding more to my ever expanding TBR list. 😉

16 years agoI can’t judge a vampire movie until I’ve seen it in a theater – So much is lost on a TV screen – Can’t emphasize that enough with the oldest vampire flick of all, the 1922 silent film original “NOSFERATU” . . . And I’m a sucker for any Lon Chaney Jr. film … yeah, I know they’re cheesy B-movies, but they started it all!
Must add a nod and thumbs-up for “INTERVIEW WITH A VAMPIRE” to Jennifer’s vote. (Can’t go wrong with Brad Pitt)
You’ll all laugh yourselves silly at my book choices – tells of the momma in me, but I do truly adore the humor and fun of “VAMPIRES DON”T WEAR POLKA DOTS” and “WEREWOLVES DON”T EAT POTATO CHIPS” and the entire children’s chapter book series these two are only a small part of in the ‘tongue-in-cheek horror’ genre, titled the Adventures of the Bailey School Kids by Debbie Dadey & Marcia Thorton Jones.

16 years agoHello Christie!
Let’s see, my Favorite vamp movie Blade and I really liked that Jack Nicholson Were movie (the name escapes me at the moment).
I’ll admit I loved Angel (he was just HOT). I’m watching Tru Blood now which is really good.
And books, I haven’t read too many since I used to be a strict historical romance girl but I a 30-something woman that loved the Twilight series and am now currently hooked in the Sookie Stackhouse books (Sam and Eric-yum).
