Hero Complex

Produktbeschreibung

Being labeled a mad scientist doesn't faze Bronte Scales. Accidentally gaining superpowers didn't even seem that strange. It's not until she realizes someone is out to get her and her do-it-yourself super tech invention, that she reluctantly becomes one part of a superpowered crime fighting team. Then things really get out of hand. And somewhere along the way she accidentally kidnaps a nurse--a smart, kind, and beautiful sort of nurse. Bronte's screwed. Athena Papadaki doesn't have superpowers, but she's scary good at squeezing everything she can from each waking minute. That feels heroic until she's kidnapped by a group of knuckleheads who need more rescuing than she does. Once she's done saving the day, she'll walk away and most certainly never think about Bronte Scales ever again. Nothing to see here. Can Bronte and Athena, and their unlikely friends, work together to defeat Bronte's arch archnemesis? The fate of love, humanity, and the world might depend on it. No pressure.

Autorenporträt

Jesse Thoma splits her professional time between graduate school and work. She is a project manager in a clinical research lab and spends a good amount of time in methadone clinics and prisons collecting data and talking to people. Jesse grew up in Northern California but headed east for college. She never looked back, although her baseball allegiance is still loyally with the San Francisco Giants. She has lived in New England for ten years and has finally learned to leave extra time in the morning to scrape snow off the car. Jesse is blissfully married and is happiest when she is out for a walk with her wife and their dog, pretending she still has the soccer skills she had as an eighteen-year-old, eating anything her wife bakes, or sitting at the computer to write a few lines.
