My Kind of Hero Books in Order

My Kind of Hero is Donna Alam’s spin on modern fairy tales that start at, or very near, the altar. Each book follows a couple whose lives implode around a wedding and who have to decide what they really want once the flowers wilt and the cameras switch off. (goodreads.com)

In No Romeo, a bride discovers on the day of her lavish wedding that her groom is not the prince she believed. Her panicked escape deposits her in the arms of Oliver Deubel, her almost husband’s ruthless rival. To dodge deportation and humiliate her ex, she agrees to Oliver’s outrageous proposal, a fake engagement that requires moving into his world and his penthouse. What starts as a revenge pact slowly turns tender as lines blur between pretending for the cameras and sharing a real life. (target.com)

No Saint hands the spotlight to a wedding planner who prides herself on being the calm center of other people’s chaos. One wild night with charming best man Finn was supposed to be a mistake she could forget, but she wakes up legally married and on the way to an exclusive honeymoon resort with only one bed. Six days of play acting as newlyweds forces them to confront why they are so wrong on paper and why it suddenly feels dangerous to think about an annulment. (target.com)

In No Knight, the heroine is determined not to show up alone to the destination wedding of the ex who also happens to be her boss. Hiring a professional escort seems like a smart, if desperate, solution. Mistaking billionaire investor Matt for her date definitely is not. After a night that blows past every boundary she set herself, she sneaks away, only to confront him again months later in a boardroom where he holds all the cards. Mistaken identity, role play, and a very determined hero drive their opposites attract love story. (donnaalam.com)

Although each couple gets their own self contained arc and happy ending, the books share a glamorous, slightly heightened world of viral wedding videos, social media scandals, and luxury resorts. Underneath the fun, Alam digs into questions about agency, how much of yourself you are willing to trade for security, and what a “hero” actually looks like in the real world. (goodreads.com)

If you enjoy tropes like runaway bride, fake dating, and only one bed wrapped in sharp banter and big emotion, My Kind of Hero is an easy place to dive into her newer, traditionally published work.
