REVIEW: I Need a Hero by Codi Gary

I Need a Hero (Men in Uniform .5) by Codi Gary is a quick start to what sounds like it is going to be an amazing new series. I love a great military opposites attract type of book, and this one, although a very short novella, really packs a punch. This is the story of Oliver and Evelyn.

Sergeant Oliver Martinez is a MP who got himself in hot water when he punches out the General’s son and gets him tossed in jail. As punishment, Oliver is ordered to work on a charity event for the Alpha Dogs Training Program. Wanting to do anything by work this event, that all changes with he lays eyes on hot, sexy Evelyn Reynolds, none other then the General’s Daughter.

Evelyn Reynolds has rules and at the top of that list is never get involved with a military man. That is until she is working in close quarters with Oliver. There is an instant attraction between the two of them, but Evelyn needs to keep remembering that he is military and that his helping her is just temporary.

When a dog name Beast, a request to transfer, and a meddling father threaten to over take these lovebirds, they will need to join forces to fight for each other and their shot at happiness.

I Need a Hero by Codi Gary was cute, funny and the dog, Beast was a hoot. It was a quick but very entertaining story and I look forward to reading more in this series.

Sergeant Oliver Martinez joined the military to serve his country—not plan parties. But after a run-in with his commanding officer, Oliver is suddenly responsible for the Alpha Dogs Training Program’s upcoming charity event. Worse, he’s got to work with the bossiest, sexiest woman he’s ever met—who just happens to be the general’s daughter.

When it comes to military men, Evelyn Reynolds is not interested. And with the opportunity to launch her new PR firm at the charity event, she doesn’t have time for some sexy, arrogant jerk with a hero complex. Evelyn is determined to keep things professional—if only she can ignore how Oliver’s muscles fill out a t-shirt and the infuriating way he makes her heart pound.

But when tempers flare and a scorching kiss turns into so much more, Oliver and Evelyn will have to decide if this attraction is forever…or just for now.
