Release Blast - HEROIC MEASURES by Marie James

 

 Release Date: August 3

Opposites don’t just attract.

They captivate.

They entice.

They beckon.

As the medic for the Blackbridge Security team, he was just fine hanging out at the office in his spare time.

Jude Morris was…boring.

He didn’t need excitement.

He wasn’t a thrill-seeker.

Then he met a woman who was.

Parker Maxwell, the only woman able to captivate, entice, and beckon him, was his antithesis.

The up to his down.

The light to his dark.

The hot to his cold.

He couldn’t take his eyes off of her.

She didn’t seem to notice him.

It’s going to take heroic measures for this guy to win the girl.

3.5 Stars

Another fun installment of the Blackbridge Security Series that parallels with Calculated Risk. Jude and Parker are definitely a case of opposites attract.

Jude is the shy medic of the Blackbridge team. He gets his fair share of ribbing by the team for his being a virgin still. But approaching women has not been his strong suit. He has watched the team one by one as they have found their match and relationships they didn't know they were looking for. He has a longing to find that match.

Parker is living life and not taking names along the way. Watching her mother pine over a love for a man that she couldn't have, she has written off the happily ever after for herself. She is living life to the fullest flirting her way but has not plans for relationships and the heartache it normally brings. But when shy Jude crosses her path she is drawn to him. She wants to bring him out of her shell. The last thing she planned for was him getting under her skin.

Can the shy guy tame the wild girl? Or are they both setting themselves up for heartache?

I did enjoy the story but I am not certain if it was the parallel crossing between stories, I just didn't feel the same connect with the characters as I have with the others in the series.

Let's see...where to begin...

I'm inching up on the BIG 4-0. The gray hairs are doubling what seems like daily, and the wrinkles and laugh lines are more pronounced than ever.

I have an amazing husband (Married just over 15 years.)

We have two boys we're doing our best to raise as respectful gentleman.

I have a master's degree in criminal justice which I used to work as a juvenile probation office until deciding to write full-time in June of 2019. So that means there's usually always some criminal/law element to my novels.

If I'm not writing; I'm reading.

My favorite genres recently are bully/reverse harem and enemies to lovers. Maybe I'm reliving my traumatic teen years through the girls who actually end up with the boys. (Not that I would change my history since it's gotten me exactly where I need to be!)

I love coffee. I miss carbs. Music is LIFE. I try not to be too serious.
