    About this ebook

    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 Dog 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.

      An excellent start to what should be a great new series from this author. This is a quick fun read and was completely entertaining. I loved Oliver and Evelyn. Oliver is temporarily assigned to work with the Alpha Dogs Training Program and Evelyn is handling the PR for and upcoming fundraising event for the program. Having to work together may be more than either one can handle, or maybe it might be the best thing that ever happened to either one of them!

      This is a wonderfully written story and one I would recommend to everyone.

      Codi Gary has done it again. I don’t know how she does it , but somehow I always find myself falling head-over-heels in love with the characters she creates.It’s when your standing in the checkout line at the grocery store or some random place and you find yourself thinking about them. How intense they’re story was and how damn it all what a love like that must be like. And for weeks to come, they still linger in the back of your mind. Begging for you to reread they’re story and experience it all over again.That’s.. I Need a Hero.I was excited when I found out that Ms. Gary was releasing a new series. And I was even more excited when I learned that it was going to be about yummy military men and filled with adorable rescue dogs.Oliver and Eve were fabulous characters and they’re story was even more than I imagined. It was riveting and compelling and HOTT !! Those two…the chemistry is undeniable. And no matter how hard they try to avoid each other, when they touch it ignites the pages.If your into delicious military men and adorable rescue dogs then this is the series for you. And ohhh….those secondary characters ! I am dying , dying I tell you. For the next book in the series !
