I'm starting to sound like a broken record, but this series keeps getting better and better. After Knight and Creed, ladies, meet Raid. We're now on novel number three in Unfinished Hero series by Kristen Ashley.
Hanna Boudreaux has been in love with Raiden Ulsyssen Miller since she was a little girl. She's a nice, polite young woman that still has a crush on a man who doesn't even remember ever speaking to her. She loves him and he doesn't even know she exists.
Until he does. Raid takes one look at her amazing legs and funny bike and he's done. She possesses that kind of true beauty, he wants for himself.
She's his prize, for the things he's been through, wor the deaths he still hasn't come to peace with.
This funny wild girl is everything he has ever wanted.
The only thing he has to do to live his happily ever after is survive his nightmares, his fear and the enemy that's coming after him.
And it's all worth it. Because in the end, there she awaits, his prize.
Here they are, my two favorite characters thus far.
I've talked about Raid with some people already and we've all agreed that this book is far better than the first two, which is actually great, because it promises more with every book in this series we have ahead of us. The main characters in this novel, Hanna add Raid, seem more realistic, the plot is more convincing and the scenes more natural and believable.
Hanna has grown to my heart for being so simple but so inventive. The simplicity of her life and the way she makes for living is such an opposite to the complexity of Raid's past and his personality alone.
Hanna's grandmother is the very best. Her humor and kindness make perfect balance for all the silent and frowning characters, and it makes her more than memorable. And the cat? I was under his spell in less than a second. He had me at his first meow.
I love Raid for multiple reasons. In this novel I've found the most interesting dialogues, a casually flowing plot and it also seemed to me that, unlike Knight and Creed, the whole novel was brighter, full of hope, but still it hasn't lost the serious note the entire series is based on.
The whole crew of unfinished heroes, Knight, Creed, Raid (and the two we haven't met yet) live by their own code of honor and walk a thin line between tle law and chaos. But Raid seems like the only one who does the thing he does and feel actually good about it. And it's not just because he claim it, it's actually visible in the way he is, funny and playful. That differs him from his friends and that is what makes him my favorite.
The next two novels in this series belong to Deacon an Sebring. I'm intrigued by the way Deacon is portrayed in this novel so I'm curious about his book. An then there's Nick, a wildchild...interesting...
So, ladies. Trust me. You want Read.

Ako pak vam je malo �kripilo uz Viteza i Creeda, ne bojte se, ponavljam, Raid je the one! Tre�a knjiga po redu iz serijala Nesavr�eni mu�karci, Raid, dolazi iz Mozaik knjige i za nju imam samo rije�i pohvale.
Hanna Boudreaux od malih nogu zaljubljena je u Raidena Ulsyssena Millera. Ona je mirna, pristojna djevojka koja i s dvadeset osam godina pati za ljubavlju iz djetinjstva, gleda u Raida iz prikrajka i nada se na �e je on zamijetiti.
A onda ju zamijeti. Raid odmjeri njene savr�ene noge i komi�ni bicikl i jednostavno ne mo�e odoljeti toj istinskoj iskrenoj ljepoti.
Nagradi za grozote koje je pre�ivio, za smrti koje jo� nije prebolio...
To je to, Hanna je njegova.
Ta vrckava, divlja, smije�na, a ujedno dobrodu�na djevojka upravo je ono �to je Raid cijelog �ivota �elio.
Jedino �to mora u�initi, da bi do�ivio svoj sretan zavr�etak, nau�iti je nositi se s no�nim morama, vlastitim strahom i jednim gorkim neprijateljem.
Sve to vrijedno je borbe zato �to ga na cilju ga �eka najbolja nagrada.
Evo dosad mojih najdra�ih likova u ovom serijalu. ?
Puno ljudi s kojima sam do sada prokomentirala Raida i ostale nesavr�ene mu�karce, tvrdilo je da je Raid najbolji Ashleyn roman dosad. Ja se sla�em. Likovi Hanne i Raida vje�tije su razra�eni, radnja je uvjerljivija, a scene ma�tovitije. Cijeli autori�in izri�aj u ovom romanu dobrodo�la je promjena, a mislim da �e �itatelji to zamijetiti. Roman djeluje uvjerljivije, opu�tenije, a opet ne gubi na ozbiljnosti.
Hanna mi je prirasla srcu otkad sam pro�itala na koji na�in zara�uje za �ivot. Toliko je jednostavna, a opet tako snala�ljiva, da se ve� tu isti�e kao jedinstveni lik. Njezina baka je ideal, u svojoj toplini divna je suprotnost i ravnote�a likovima koji su predstavljeni kao hladni i prora�unati. A ma�ak je apsolutni rekorder. Za medalju. Osvojio me dok ka�e� mijau.
Raida obo�avam iz vi�e razloga, a najve�i je taj da se u ovom romanu najvjerojatnije poklopila ta ravnote�a izme�u upe�atljivih dijaloga, zanimljive radnje i najvjerodostojnijih likova. Nekako imam osje�aj da se, za razliku od likova Viteza i Creeda, autorica nije razderala od muke da ga prika�e na odre�eni na�in, ve� joj je njegov lik do�ao prirodno.
I Vitez i Creed, cijela ta nesavr�ena ekipa, �ive po kodu �asti, vlastitim zakonima i moralnim smjernicama koje provociraju i izazivaju. Od svih dosada�njih mu�karaca, Raid se doima kao jedini koji se osje�a zaista zadovoljno u svojoj ko�i. On je zaista siguran u svoje poslanje, a mi ga zbog toga vidimo u druga�ijem svjetlu.
Sljede�i na redu iz ovog su serijala Deacon i Sebring. Oboje su me zaintrigirali, makar moram priznati, Deacon malo vi�e. Volim kad se po�teno koprcaju prije nego �to ih strefi Kupidova strelica ??
Drage dame, vjerujte mi, �elite Raida. �elite ga.
