Second read thoughts: I still can't get over this couple. I've talked about this book multiple times over the last year and re-reading and falling in love with Pick and Eva again was so fun. One of the major reasons I love this book so much is because adoption plays such a huge part of this families lives. Blood doesn't make you family. 
 "For a split second, I saw red. Just because my blood didn't flow through his veins didn't make him any less mine. I loved this kid more than just about anyone. 
 -Pick 
 Still an amazing 5 star read.

 I've been anticipating this review for... hours. I swear I don't think I've ever loved a book so much in my life. 
 Yesterday around 8pm I started reading and do you know what time I forced myself to go to bed? 5am. 5 o'clock in the morning because I could not get enough. 
 You know how you read a book and there is so much the author tries to shove into the story and it all just kind of falls into each other, leaving plot holes and nothing actually makes sense? That is the complete opposite of Be My Hero. 
 This is the first book by Linda Kage I've read and I can assure you I will definitely be reading the rest of the Forbidden Men series. 
 I fell in love with every single character. Other than the antagonists I loved everyone. The supporting characters were just as important to the story as the main characters. 
 And their little family. Oh my gosh. Pick, Eva, Julian and Skylar. 
 This book tore out a piece of my heart and kept it for itself. 
 I literally don't even want to write anything about it other than how much I loved it. There is no way my words will ever do it justice. I think everyone should read this. 
 This is definitely a book I will read again.
