Never Hire a Hero

amazon barnes & noble Goodreads

Three children and a marriage of convenience may be his biggest challenge yet

A former elite soldier, Stephen Roth was trained to be ruthless as he served as bodyguard for kings and princes. So why would his English patroness, Lady Belfort, and her cat, Fortune, arrange for him to take a position as the tutor to the heir of Alldene Castle and the boy’s siblings? And why does the children’s mother, Lady Alldene, look at him with shining eyes, as if he could be some sort of hero? This was not the sort of challenge he bargained for!

A peer in her own right, Thea, Countess of Alldene, was raised in Alldene Castle and taught how to rule over it. But nothing prepared her for the death of her husband and the villainy of the man he appointed as guardian for her children. If a tutor with a razor-sharp gaze will prevent that man from taking her sons away from her, she’s willing to put up with Roth’s rough-shod ways.

But the castle holds a secret that may prove Thea’s undoing. When danger threatens, she turns to the one man who might be able to keep them all safe. Could a marriage of convenience over Christmas prove that heroes can turn up in the least likely places?

If you like warm, witty historical romances, with a touch of intrigue, then you’ll love this historical romance by an award-winning, bestselling author.

Hott Review of Never Hire a Hero:

I fell in love with Never Hire a Hero on the first pages. My heart immediately went out to a family trying to overcome their past and not shirk their responsibilities or let the bullies rule. Thea is a wonderful mother trying to do too much with too little and she needs help. Luckily, she’s found a friend.

I think this may be my favorite book from Regina Scott to date. I loved the characters, the mystery, and the atmosphere. If you love your sweet romance to have substance, you can’t go wrong with a book by Ms. Scott!

As with the others, Never Hire a Hero is part of a series and a completely stand-alone story that you could read as a stand-alone novel… But why would you want to? Trust me, start at the beginning and enjoy every moment of Fortune!

I love to read! But I don't always think the synopsis on the backs of books do them justice. I do, however, believe all books should come with an intended rating - or at least a steam FYI. So, I'm taking upon myself to educate all -- christian & secular readers, alike -- on the books behind the synopsis and the possible things you may not want your YA reader to see. Enjoy!
