Tasty Review & Giveaway: Super Love by Stephanie Beck



Reuniting to save the world. 

Dinah just wanted to save the world. That didn’t pan out, so she turned to social work, only to find herself miserable. When she’s given the option of returning to the Justice Fraternity and her life as Dinah-Go, super fast superhero, she hesitates because going back means working side by side with her former lover Myles Steele, aka Man of Wonder.

To save their city from gargoyles, Man of Wonder needs Dinah-Go back in fighting shape. But Myles wants more than just his fighting partner at his side, he wants the lover and friend he lost two years earlier. Getting her will take more than even his super strength.


**MY REVIEW**



Super LoveFirst, I have to give the author a lot of thumbs up for uniqueness and plot. You don't see many romances with superhero heroes and heroines. Also loved that the bad "guys" were female. Nice touch!

The setting is mostly a superhero lair, complete with hidden cameras , an underground driveway, and booby traps. There are two conflicts: The head honcho (hero) has permitted and sorta "hired" four gargoyle women, knowing full well they are bad seeds and after his lair/operation, but he wants to keep his enemies closer and find a way of killing them.

The other conflict is a romantic one: Does he love the heroine? Did he bring her back (she had the superhero group previously) because he loves her and missed her or because he needs her help to kill the gargoyles?
The story is very climatic.

Problems: This is an idea that could have been expanded on a lot. More scenes, more details, and def more emotion would have been nice. At times the writing came across as cold and unfeeling, just far too "to the point".

Three bikes.




About the Author:


Even before she understood what all the thrusting meant, Stephanie Beck loved reading romance. When the stories didn't end the way she wanted, writing her own was the perfect solution. From ridiculous humor to erotica, Stephanie loves being transported within a story.

When she's not elbow deep in words, her husband and three children command her attention. After they are sleeping she knits or bakes cookies…or squeezes in more writing.

  1. I do love Batman - he qualifies I guess although he is remarkably human.

    1. I was fond of Catwoman and She-Ra...but I don't think She-Ra was a superhero. ?
