Jake Silver may not be able to put the memories of his time as a sniper and Navy SEAL behind him, but at least he can put his skills to use as a part of the Jones Inc. rescue team. Saving the life of pediatric heart surgeon Dr. Aria Sinclair on Denali helped too. Now he can’t get her out of his head, and when he hears she is in the path of a hurricane down in Key West he can’t help but jump on a plane to rescue her.
Aria has dedicated her life to helping children born with defective hearts. After all, she was one of those children. Now driven to succeed, she lives a lonely, stressful life. One she would have lost on Denali if it hadn’t been for Jake. Jake is exciting and handsome, but he’s also dangerous, and she’s already lost one person she loves. She can’t bear it again.
It’s not until she finds herself trapped in the middle of a category 4 hurricane that she can admit she needs Jake desperately. With their very survival in the balance, can they hope for a second chance at life . . . and love?

Summary
From: Rebecca Maney
Book Title: The Heart of a Hero
Book Author: Susan May Warren
What do you like about this book:
3.5 stars
"Panic comes when we stop believing that God is good. Or, that God is sovereign. But he is both, and that is the key to peace, even in the midst of the grief, or fear. Whatever storm life brings."
It seems that every time Dr. Aria Sinclair goes on vacation, that she ushers in a storm. . . . and not just any storm, a Category Five hurricane storm . . . on an island . . . in the middle of the ocean. Equally as jarring is the fact that Jake Silver keeps showing up in the middle of it all, just when she needs him the most. And Aria despises being needy. So, why does she insist on running straight into his arms with reckless abandon? Why?!
Jake kind of likes it when Aria needs him. . . . okay more than likes it, if the truth were known. Even if her call for help was misunderstood, trying to survive a brutal Key West storm with sick and injured patients, while hunkering down in a deserted island hospital, calls for back-up. But what about when the winds stop blowing and the rains stop falling . . what then, Aria Sinclair and Jake Silver? What then?
As Aria and Jake continue their on-again, off-again attraction, a curious thing happens, God settles their hearts. Meanwhile, the battle to get off the island is about to take a turn for the worse.
The Susan May Warren that I have loved for years shows back up in this book. The pace is a bit more settled, the characters have time to properly introduce themselves, and the spiritual depth is absolutely point on, which pleases me . . . . . because this series is far from over.
I received a copy of this book from Baker Publishing through Interviews and Reviews. The opinions stated above are entirely my own.
