THE UNSUNG HERO by Suzanne Brockmann (See her website)
Ivy Books,
Ballantine Publishing, June 2000
Navy Seal Tom Paoletti was badly injured, but could he really be imagining it when he sees an
international terrorist in his small home town? If it's his imagination
he'll have to give up his hopes of returning to the force. If it is
reality, he's in even worse trouble.
Dr. Kelly Ashton has dreamed of Tom ever since they shared a kiss
when she was fifteen. She's all grown up now, but Tom insists on
treating her like a goodie-goodie, not like the woman she knows she is.
Tom shares the attraction but can't acknowledge it--not now, when he
doesn't even know if he's going crazy. What does he have to offer a
woman?
THE UNSUNG HERO combines the romantic attraction between these two
characters with the action of tracking down the international terrorist.
Tom's aging uncle (Joe) and Kelly's father (Charles), both World War II
heros, get involved in the chase as does Tom's sister. A secondary
romance between Tom's sister and a local nerd with a heart of gold adds
spark to the novel.
Brockmann (see BooksForABuck.com reviews of other novels by this author) is a talented writer (she won two RITA Awards at the 2000
Romance Writers of America Conference) who tells an engaging story. The
secondary romance between Tom's sister and David, and the flashbacks to
the romantic triangle between Joe, Charles, and Cybele add emotional
depth to the Kelly and Tom's romance.
