The Troubleshooters return in the latest thriller from New York Times best-selling author Suzanne Brockmann! Some Kind of Hero showcases Brockmann's signature white-knuckle suspense, romantic twists, and sexy Navy SEALs.
Navy men don't come tougher than Lieutenant Peter Greene. Every day he whips hotshot SEAL wannabes into elite fighters. So why can't he handle one 15-year-old girl? His ex's death left him a single dad overnight and very unprepared. Though he can't relate to an angsty teen, he can at least keep Maddie safe - until the day she disappears. Though Pete's lacking in fatherly intuition, his instinct for detecting danger is razor sharp. Maddie's in trouble. Now he needs the Troubleshooters team at his back, along with an unconventional ally.
Romance writer Shayla Whitman never expected to be drawn into a real-world thriller - or to meet a hero who makes her pulse pound. Action on the page is one thing. Actually living it is another story. Shay's not as bold as her heroines, but she's a mother. She sees the panic in her new neighbor's usually fearless blue eyes - and knows there's no greater terror for a parent than having a child at risk. It's an ordeal Shay won't let Pete face alone. She's no highly trained operative, but she's smart and resourceful and knows what makes teenagers tick.
Still, working alongside Pete has its own perils - like letting the heat between them rise out of control. Intimate emotions could mean dangerous, even deadly consequences for their mission. No matter what, they must be on top of their game and playing for keeps...or else Pete's daughter may be gone for good.

Mr.Lawlor’s gravelly voice was good, but it is so unique he cannot easily transform it to fit each character. I had to go back and re-listen a few times because I didn’t know who was speaking anymore. (Although this was exacerbated because I always like to listen while doing something else, and was not so bad that it would make me stop the book.)
Loved it!

Peter Greene (Grunge), a BUDs instructor associated with Seal Team 6, recently became the guardian of his daughter, Maddie, whose mother died in a car accident. He hasn't seen Maddie since she was a baby, and she doesn't want to get to know him now. Moreover, Maddie's in a new school and picks the wrong friend. Fiona gets $10,000 from a drug dealer and tells him Maddie has it. Now Fiona's in the wind and Maddie is in deep trouble.(One string that's left hanging is Fiona likely secretly filmed Maddie in the shower and Maddie is likely inadvertantly starring in internet porn.) Maddie and older Dingo, an American with a fake Aussie accent, embark on a quest to track down Fiona to get the money. They are on the run, both from the drug dealer and Maddie's Dad.
When Maddie disappears, Peter goes looking. His neighbor Shayla see him stranded on a highway and -- recognizing he's her across-the-street neighbor -- rescues him, not expecting a, "Follow that car!" chase -- Peter believes he's seen Maddie in it. Shayla becomes Peter's spirit guide in exercising some muscles he's let go for a long time -- caring, getting involved, cooperating instead of ordering. Shayla humanizes Grunge -- who is already a forthright, exemplary human being. a great listener, and -- did I mention -- Greek god who's hot for days.
Shayla is a spectacular find for Peter. She's a writer of romances, and she adapts like quicksilver to any situation. She devises a way to communicate with Maddie -- who's turned her phone off -- by writing up the story of Peter's time with Maddie's mother, explaining how they got together and ultimately split apart.
Shayla's only failing occurs when someone breaks into Peter's house (and likely is still there). He tells her to go outside and call the police, which she should do IMMEDIATELY, but she does not so they're surprised by one of the perps. Even as Peter tangles with him, otherwise quick-witted Shayla lingers, and she ends up overpowered by a second assailant.
I love this book. I find I love all the books with Izzy Zanella in them. He makes me laugh.
Fabulous Romantic Firework & Plenty of Action

Would you consider the audio edition of Some Kind of Hero to be better than the print version?
I'm bias because I'm a fan of audible, which is not to say that I don't like print because I do I'm a huge print fan, but listening on audible is probably at an addiction level for me now.,,but in a good way.What does Bahni Turpin and Patrick Lawlor bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I absolutely love Patrick Lawlor's voice. He brings just the perfect inflection, tone and cadence that makes the story come to life. Listening to Lawlor is like watching a movie...the sensory take is the same for me.Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
This story made me smile and filled me with warmth, satisfied the way you feel after eating your favorite chocolate chip cookie.Any additional comments?
I highly recommend this book, it's definitely meets the high bar Suzanne Brockman has set with all her other books.Perfect Mix of Romance & Suspense
