This week,
Entangled Publishing has been celebrating The Best Book Boyfriends Ever by
shining a light on some of the heroes on Embrace! Today I’m joining in as we
salute the military book boyfriends!
Authors
Ophelia London & Cole Gibsen shared their thoughts about writing about men
in uniform. Entangled has all of the Embrace stories with military heroes on
sale for just 99¢, today only!
Is your
hero inspired by a real-life person? If so, who?
Ophelia
London (author of Abby Road & Crossing Abby Road): Actually, my hero, Todd,
is very, very roughly based on a mix of my college boyfriend and the fantasy I
wished he'd been back then. Hee-hee. I started dreaming up this story a few
years after 9/11, so I KNEW Todd needed to have served in the military.
Cole Gibsen
(author of Seared on my Soul): I'm the executive director of a charity that
places PTSD service dogs with veterans. I wouldn't say Reece was inspired by a
particular veteran, but rather the struggle I've witnessed so many of them
going through.
What
other kinds of heroes do you like to read about?
Ophelia:
Basically any of them! But currently, I love to read about powerful men: the
businessmen: strong silent type that appear to be all business, but deep down
have a gooey heart of gold. And if they have an accent, whooo baby!
Cole: I'm
seriously a romance junkie, so when it comes to heroes, I don't discriminate. I
love them all.

Measures by Rebecca Yarros
Fight &
Glory #1
She knew.
That’s why Mom hadn’t opened the door. She knew Dad was dead. Twenty years as
an army brat and Ember Howard knew, too. Her dad would never be coming home.
Then Josh Walker enters her life. Hockey star, her new next-door neighbor...and
endowed with the most delicious hands that have a way of erasing her pain with
a single touch. But just when Ember lets him in, Josh’s secret shatters their
world. And she must decide if he’s worth the risk that comes with loving a man
who could strip her world bare.

Eyes Turned
Skyward by Rebecca Yarros
Fight &
Glory #2
Since her
sister's death, Paisley, who shares her sister’s heart condition, is treated
like glass by her parents. But nothing will stop her from completing her Bucket
List—even if it kills her. And it almost does, until Jagger pulls her from the
ocean and sets her soul on fire. Jagger is wickedly hot, reckless, and perfect
for a girl living life to the fullest. Except Paisley is the commanding
general's daughter and her boyfriend is Jagger's biggest rival. One wrong move,
and they could crash and burn…

Beyond What
is Given by Rebecca Yarros
Fight &
Glory #3
The last
thing Lt. Grayson Masters needs is the distraction of his gorgeous new
roommate, Samantha Fitzgerald. While her smart mouth and free spirit are
irresistibly irritating, he can’t deny their off-the-charts chemistry—or her
ability to pull his focus away from his Apache helicopter course. Sam has no
business digging for Grayson’s secrets while she’s hiding her own, but that
doesn’t stop her from trying to tear down his walls. Each barrier she busts
through drops one of her own, though, and she’s not prepared for the truth…

Ground by Rebecca Yarros
Fight &
Glory #4
Josh Walker
is loyal, reckless, and every girl’s dream. But he only has eyes for December
Howard. Together they have survived grief, the military, distance, and time. As
Josh heads to Afghanistan, a country that nearly killed him once before and
took Ember’s father, they fill their last days together with love, passion, and
plans for their future... If there’s one thing Ember has learned from her
father’s death, it’s that there are some obstacles even love can’t conquer.

Seared on
My Soul by Cole Gibsen
Written on
My Heart #2
Reece
Montgomery never planned on being anyone’s hero, especially the foul-mouthed,
bleach-blonde barista from the local coffee shop. He thinks there’s more to
Emily Garret than her tattoos, and lip ring, but getting close means letting
her into his past and meeting his ghosts.

Abby Road by Ophelia London
Abby Road #1
It's been exactly one day since rock
star Abby Kelly fled her chaotic life. One day without her demanding manager,
papparrazzi, ridiculous tour schedules, and recording sessions. But all it
takes is one twist of fate— to enter a stranger's surf shop while trying to
dodge some fans—for everything to change. When Abby meets Todd, an ex-Marine
sniper turned surfer, she feels things she hasn't felt for a long time.
Possibly never. But when the real world comes crashing back in, Abby is caught
between the superstar she's become...and the painfully real human being she
longs to be.

Crossing
Abby Road by Ophelia London
Abby
Road #2
Todd
Camford went from Marine sniper to owning a beachfront surf shop in Florida.
He's a free-flying, unfettered hawk, and relationships outside of family are
out of the question. And then she comes into his shop. Everyone knows who
Abigail Kelly is—mega rockstar, tabloid fixture. He'd be an ass (or possibly
insane) to think he can resist her. Just for today, maybe he'll keep an eye on
her to make sure she doesn't get mobbed. Because really, how much damage could
one day with a super-hot, kick-ass celebrity really do
