A lot of books have a secondary hero. The guy that's a friend of the hero and/or the heroine, who helps out with rescuing, etc.

I refer to the men has heroes, because in their own right, they are heroes.

Has your eyes ever landed on the secondary hero. In my experience of reading, I have came across books where the secondary hero has stood taller in my eyes than the number one hero.

I have to say that in Killer Dreams, my latest read, the secondary hero - Jock has caught my attention. He's said to be in his twenties. Actually how old he is, I really don't know, because it's not mentioned. I don't think he's in his early twenties though. I say mid to late twenties. He's Scottish.

Jock reminds me of John Medina from Linda Howard's All The Queen's Men book. In All The Queen's Men, in the scene where John was talking to the heroine as a totally different person, before tragedy struck. He was a mystery man. Well, at least to me. He was dark and inviting. He was like the man in a room full of people that's off to himself, but you know he has a story. But in all order to get to the interesting sculpture, you have to study it. Let it draw you closer and that's what John has done.

Jock has that same captivation. He's not hiding behind a different alias. He's Jock. He has been through. He's a tortured hero. Yet, he's loving, friendly, loyal and he definitely has his friend's back. He's good at his job and others respect his work.

I hope that Mrs. Johansen has a book about him. A book that's true to the Jock that I have came to like in Killer Dreams.

Let me just say I have seen Cole and Noah Clayborne's book.

Moving on.

I am sure that as I continue to read more books, more secondary heroes will capture my attention.

Danielle, you might like it or not, but I have to say that Jock caught my attention. I gave the book 3.5 stars.

Sloan from Strike Zone by Kate Angell is a bad boy. He's a baseball player.

I'm finished with Strike Zone.

I have to say that Sloan was more interested to me than the main hero, Brek was.

I wrote a review.
