90 SCENE | MAY 2017 arts&culture SOME KIND OF HERO by Suzanne Brockmann Brockmann’s latest book in the Troubleshooters series is a highenergy thriller that still meets the requirements of the romance genre. Hot military type? Check (it’s a tough-as-nails Navy SEAL lieutenant named Peter “Grunge” Greene). Tragic backstory? Check (his life is upended when his ex-wife dies in a car crash, so he has sole custody of Maddie, their fifteen-year-old daughter). Problems? Check (Being a SEAL does not properly train you to parent a teen on your own). And things get worse when Maddie goes AWOL. Mix in a love interest (Shayla Whitman, a romance writer!), and you’ve got the makings for another novel that furthers Brockmann’s reputation as the reigning queen of military romance. Brockmann has been in this business for 25 years, and reports that “Some Kind of Hero, with its romance author heroine, is my love letter to the genre, twenty-five years in the making.” Some Kind of Hero is one of those zip-fast-paced, larger-than-life adventure stories with more than a pinch of Nicholas Sparks/Nora Roberts/Diana Gabaldon/Jennifer Crusie. If those writers make stories that send you out in need of Kleenex, this one might well please you, too.
