Synopsis
Once upon a time, there was this pampered rich girl who was kind of full of herself. She really only cared about appearances and hiding all her dark, ugly secrets under the guise of an opinionated snob. But then Eva Mercer got pregnant, shot by a psycho, and kicked out of the only home she knew. Now she’s broke, unemployed, and has to start anew with a newborn to raise. But how?
On the other side of town, sexy, tattooed orphan, Patrick Ryan, can’t get a break. He’s out on parole for defending the last damsel in distress while trying to help her support her child, but all he wants is to find his one true love. He knows this woman by scent, smile, and laugh, but he’s never actually met her. He doesn’t even know her name. He just knows she’s the key to fixing everything.
One kind of hero can save you from physical harm. Another can rescue you from a different kind of doom. To reach their dreams, Eva and Pick can save each other. But first, they must open their hearts and learn how to trust.

My Review
5 I-Love-Pick Stars!
So I started this book without having read the previous books in this series because after reading the synopsis and about Pick I just had to jump in. Be my hero is book 3 in Forbidden Men series by Linda Kage. I loved this book but more that the book I bloody loved Patrick ‘Pick’ Ryan who is now my new book boyfriend. Oh my! He is just perfect, everything he does for others even with the crappy childhood he had the hope for a better future and with that dream him into an amazing man. He is just so protective and loving..the list of his good qualities is endless. SO..big question is Linda Kage..where do I find Pick? Please tell me..I swear I will take good care of him ;)
Pick is an orphan being moved from foster house to foster house, nothing is going right for him and he has had to witness some heartbreaking things and its at that point where if things carry on as they are he will start to harden himself try build up walls and stop letting people in and ultimately lose all hope. He is shown a glimpse into a future he can have, it shows all his dreams coming true if he carries that hope.He wants everything that is shown to him with such longing he can't get it out of his head and he works towards being a better person so when he meets his woman Tinker Bell as he calls her, in the future he can be worthy of her.
..I gave you a glimpse."
"You gave me a what? What the hell is a glimpse? What does it mean?"
"Mean?” She cocked her head as if confused by the question. "Maybe nothing. Maybe everything. It shows you what your life would look like if you lived it to your heart’s content."
When I read the start I was a bit like...uhmm what the hell the whole story is spoiled now because we already know what will happen but Oh was I wrong!It wasn't anything like I thought it would be and thoroughly enjoyed it.
"How the hell did you know this was our song?"
"Our song?"
"Hell, yes, our song. We're going to dance together to this at our wedding reception."
Eva Mercer has been suffering for a long time and no matter how perfect her life may look on the outside its anything but. She is still a child yet her innocence has been lost.She needs a hero..someone to take her away and save her.
10 years pass and we visit Pick and Eva's life in the present.Eva is 19yrs old and pregnant living with her cousin.Pick hasn't found his Tinker Bell and is thinking that it may all have been a dream, a lie. But then he meets Eva wearing a Tinker Bell nightshirt and things get crazy! Pick's life already has a lot of chaos and then the fact that Eva is pregnant ahhh! You have got to read it but in the end it all works out.After a lot of struggle there is so much peace.
What a beautiful journey filled with heartbreak, giggles, babies and so much love. Swoon worthy Pick.. and well..do you really need more? Yeah didn't think so ;)
Highly recommended and I don't know what I am going to do.Read the series in reverse? I haven't decided yet but I'd recommend reading in order to others lol
Oh and I can't wait for Quinn's book!
