Sometimes you have to fight for what - for who - you love.
Shannon Vanderhoff’s childhood taught her early on that nothing was hers to keep, not clothes, or toys, or even people. So she lives, loves, and lets go. She’s not looking for a hero.
But with custody of her traumatized six-year-old nephew on the line, she needs help. Charming Greg Hawkins, a comic book artist and art therapist insists he can coax Ryan into speaking again, enabling the boy to reveal what he saw the night of his mother’s death at his father’s hands. And though Shannon’s skeptical of Greg’s methods, there’s no denying that he brings light and color to their lives.
Greg, one of twelve siblings, knows anything worth having is worth fighting for. If anyone can prepare Shannon for the upcoming battle, it’s Greg and his family.
But will she fight to keep him, too?

A Hero to Keep Hawkins Family Book 1 eBook Susan Gable Reviews
Although I disagree with some of the legal aspects of this case I thought this book was very well written. Tough subject that was thoroughly covered. The next part may be a slight reveal but I'm not really telling anything specific, just be forewarned. Honestly I don't know or remember where this story occurred but the legal implications of the custody situation would not have happened in my state without overturning some pretty serious case law. Custody standard of the court is Best interest of the child. I really want to go on with this but then I would reveal too much. Goes with her philosophy though.
Wow! I didn't know what to think when I first got this book as a freebie off of BookBub, sometimes these freebies are really bad, sometimes they are just mediocre, but once in a great while you hit the jackpot, just like I did with this book. This may have been my first experience with this author, but it won't be my last, and you can take that to the bank!!!
I won't go into full details of this book, so many have already done that and probably better than I could have. I will say that this book was one of the most emotional reads I experience in a long time. I cried so many times, but I also jump for joy with each hurdle they were able to overcome, too.
I admired Greg right from the start for helping these poor children overcome their fears, and helped make them want to fight for their lives. There are many people out in this world who do what he does, and I know it can't be easy on them when watching them struggle, or when they occassionaly end up losing one of them.
Then there is Shannon. My heart just broke in two for her, so many different times throughout this story. She was already struggling with her life, but the situations she was thrown into suddenly would have anyones head spinning out of control. And just when she felt she had her feet place firmly on the ground, the rug got pulled out from underneath of her, once again.
And last but not the least is little 6 yr. old Ryan. The things this small child saw, and the things he had to go through to overcome his fear....is something NO CHILD in this world should ever have to go through. I just wanted to reach out and hold him tightly, until all of his pain went away.
This author made me dig deep into a few deep-ceded emotions I never knew had even existed. I was completely rung out by the time I finished this book, but in a good way. You'd never know that this was a feel-good story by the way I described these people and the trails they had to endure, but it absolutely was exactly that. I just purchased book #2 and can't wait to get into that one, as well. If it half as good as this one was, this author will have just found herself a new fan!
I could not put this book down! This poor child saw too much of what real life was like, drew into himself, would not talk! It took a Aunt that that found out love was possible/ and aartistthat helped kids regain themselves to make the world a better place!!
FANTASTIC READ
This was a very good story and well-written. I skipped over the sex scenes. Not my thing but wish someone had warned me. Otherwise it was a well done novel.
What a wonderful and clever plot that grabs your attention holding you and twisting your heart all at the same time. It was a story I could not put down and was up late in the night finishing it. Shannon has not had an easy life from early childhood. She doesn’t hold anything dear or let anyone get close because in her eyes she won’t have them for long. Everything comes but it must leave at some point better not hold it dear. This is a character you can really relate to she is down to earth just a normal person trying to get by.
When it comes to her nephew she has a hard time dealing since she has never had anyone to teach her what a relation or family really means. Add to that he watched his mother be murdered and hasn’t talked since, she doesn’t know him and has only seen him a few times, that is enough to make anyone throw their hands up. Even in the best of times Shannon would have had trouble dealing, reaching out and helping. With all that he has gone through she really doesn’t have a clue how to even begin but she is determine to give it her all and give her nephew a better life. Greg and his family reach out to bring this family closer together giving them meaning and teaching them through his art how to start over and become a family.
What a wonderful story about pain, suffering and having the patients to learn to love and give of one’s self. These characters are strong they just needed to be shown how to pull within their selves to find the strength they already had. Humor is something I strongly believe in, no matter what it can get you through those trying times and make the happier ones happier. Ms. Gable does this with her stories making the tough times not seem so bad. She had me laughing out loud in no time at all. At other times I really needed a tissue. This is a very well rounded, well blend story that reaches into your heart grabbing it and giving it a squeeze. I found this book to be well written, realistic and very believable which really adds to the enjoyment of the read. This is the first of her books I have read and can’t wait to get my hands on more of her work. If you are looking for a story with a little bit of everything that is an outstanding read I hope you pick this up and give it a try.
