Send Me a Hero

by Rita B. Herron

Published 1998249 pagesISBN 978-0-3732-2486-9

NO ONE BELIEVED HER Echoing footsteps, threatening phone calls, and a midnight attacker - Veronica Miller wasn't imaging things. But police found no evidence - and Veronica feared someone who knew of her past wanted to make her look crazy. EXCEPT ONE MAN Detective Nathan Dawson had heard about Veronica's false alarms. But nothing prepared him for the beautiful, shaking woman who collapsed in his arms - or the instinct that warned him her fears were justified. Believing in her risked his badge - desiring her risked his heart. And keeping Veronica safe meant uncovering the truth about a night she can't remember... HER PROTECTOR

Beyond its central premise, the book can be read through the connected lenses of Fiction. Those themes offer useful points of attention as the characters, ideas, or world develop, especially where the book complicates the expectations of its primary category.

A more thoughtful way into this book

This guide uses the edition details and category signals above to help you choose deliberately. It does not replace the author's work or a full review.

Good to know

A comfortable full-length choice for steady daily reading.

Begin with its place in Fiction, then notice where the book resists that label.

Try this reading approach

Read for connection, not completion.

Mark one passage that sharpens the book's central concern and one that complicates it. That tension often reveals more than a quick summary.

Three questions to carry with you

  1. What does the central character want, and what do they misunderstand about that desire?
  2. Which detail or relationship changes how you interpret the story?
  3. What feeling or question does the book leave with you after the plot moves on?
