About this deal

Although I was charmed by Thom and found his journey a bitter sweet one, it was the character of Hal who I found particularly poignant. He was tragic and flawed, but strangely heroic. His prejudice towards homosexuals was made clear from the start of the book and this obviously influenced Thom's secrecy about his sexuality; however, there was no doubt that he loved his son. There were two scenes towards the end of the book that broke my heart. Even typing this I have a tear in my eye so be warned that you may need to keep a hankie handy. Lee revealed in April 2010, however, that Showtime had decided against producing the series. "Showtime finally didn't commit and we're now exploring our options," Lee said. [14] Moore expressed his intent to bring the novel to television. "'Hero' will see its day onscreen. I'm not sure how or where or who will make it possible, but like all the best heroes, you have to have faith. And when it does, it will be another step forward. And some folks will think, 'Damn, it's about time someone thought of doing that.'" [14] And that's what a lot of this book was. The only deeper parts were the waaaaaay overused trope of using the alternate identities of a superhero as a metaphor for being gay. Bryan Singer did it much better in the first X-Men movie, btw. Much. Better.

This story had some good points that made me enjoy this book. The emotions that the characters had to cover up due to layers of deep secrets was greatly written. They felt very honest and exactly how I would feel. Also Thom couldn't have chosen a better group of friends or love interest than he did. I hope he has a great life because he deserves it.Publishers Weekly applauded the book for its subject matter and for expanding the genre of gay literature into superhero fantasy. But ultimately, the review noted, "the novel misses its mark, with an abundance of two-dimensional characters and contrived situations. ... While some may be glad to see a gay hero come out of the closet just in time to save the world, others may wish the situations felt less clichéd." [9] Thom Creed was named #5 on a list of top 10 LGBT Book Characters. [10]

A stealthy, stronger line of female salamanders are skipping sex and stealing DNA from males instead Erotica often gets labeled a "guilty pleasure," and while, I mean, yes—there are many campy books to read, some of which are on this list—there are plenty of erotic novels that overlap with genre and literary fiction. Some of these books have inspired Golden Globe-nominated shows, after all (hi, Outlander!). In other words, erotic novels are fun, they're sexy, and they can be prestigious. I mean, where else could you find hot billionaires, rugged war heroes, professors that don't mind giving you a "D" (jokes!), or actors who are just as hot on the screen as they are off? Nowhere but NSFW stories! I really enjoyed Hero. It's a bit cliched in parts and clearly rips off very famous superheroes, but it does so in a fun, campy way. It has a lot of closeted, gay teen angst but that's the purpose of the story so it's not overbearing. One thing I really enjoyed was how real and gritty it was, especially at the ending.

Erotic romance books let you explore fantasies from "friends-to-lovers" to "forbidden boss" tropes.

Thom is essentially brilliant. He is struggling with being gay and having his powers and tries to really keep it under wraps. It blows up when his face is on the news and when someone calls him out for it at a basketball game and when he outs himself publicly. But he kept going. He wanted to help people and that was such an integral part of the character it makes the end so much worse. As a healer he really has an affinity for coming to peoples aid, which happens right at the beginning when we meet Goran. Fancy even more exclusive offers and savings? Become a LeShuttle Member to experience a whole new world of benefits. This is an excellent book. It is not only for gay teens or fans of comics. It appeals to everyone who has ever felt rejected, outcast, or uncertain whether their friends would like them if they knew what was going on under the surface... and who cant relate to that? Thom is a teenager who's dad is a disgraced superhero. Thom is gay and now he's coming in to his powers. He has a lot on his plate and has a lot of difficult things to decide. He doesn't always do the right thing at first, but he knows when he hasn't and does try to correct it. In a world that accepts superheroes and aliens with super powers (think superman), being gay is still prejudiced against. Actually it seems all your standard prejudices and bigotry is in this world. Although, there is a lot of smoking in this book, which I found odd. But other than that, I think it handles things well.

Sitting down with a good erotica story can feel like a brain vacation. Not only that, the steamy scenes can be a way to cultivate your romantic life. Going through Bridgerton withdrawal after binge-watching the first two seasons? Well, while you await its return to streaming, grab the books and get a healthy dose of "your grace." If the series wasn't hot enough for you, the books take it up a notch. Plus, you can get a head start on the rest of the series while they work on season three. And what's a good book without some internalized misogyny? "Do you remember Velvet Vixen?" Thom's mother asks. "No, of course you don't, you're too young. Well, she was a real slut, and I didn't want anyone thinking I was easy like her." (301) This is a great YA book with a gay hero. In more than one sense of the word, the main character, Thom, has to grow up in this story. Now Justice being the villain I've already kind of said why it annoyed me. But also the fact he was all powerful was irritating. He was the Superman basically if Superman was a villain, down the weakness to a shiny stone. Then you had Warrior Woman who was basically Wonder Woman. And that just felt a little odd to me. Either as homage or rip off I didn't like that.
