"This book was fantastic. The dialogue is snappy...The flow was
perfect. It grabbed me quickly and had me focused on it to the
exclusion of everything else. I would gladly read anything else from
this author..Read this book even thought at the end you might wonder
about the state of the world...an extremely readable novel that will
keep you interested until the very last word.  If I could give this more
than a five I would." (5 of 5 rating)

" it is great seeing a male romance writer. I think that Davis has a
real talent for writing romance. He has a way of looking at romance
that only a man can. It is truly a unique book and Davis is a unique
writer to the genre.
Long and Short of It
"Tainted Hero is definitely a must read. Mr. Davis has penned an
engaging romantic thriller that keeps you wondering what will happen
next (and how will the already tortured hero handle it). Then to add
another layer, Mr. Davis utilizes his military knowledge to add
another element of realism that this reviewer hasn't seen in a long
time. If you like a story with a mix of secrets, mystery and military
men, and that's a constant on the edge of your seat kind of read, this
is your kind of book. (4 of 4 rating)

"The tension in Michael Davis’ thriller, Tainted Hero, builds to a
stunning conclusion. Most likely, the reader will rethink his or her
own notion of right and wrong. This book is a winner", (Reviewers
Top Pick, 5 of 5 rating)
"I really enjoyed the book. While romantic in nature the book was very
thought provoking and showed the tender side of a man who was
capable of extreme violence. I would strongly recommend this book to all
that enjoy romance, as well as a masterful plot. Michael Davis is a great
new author. I hope he has many more books to come.. (4 of 4 rating)

Stories to touch the heart and mind
"... Tainted Hero is splendid. It is so well-written that I just got lost in each
page. Eric is such a likeable and refreshing character that just reaches out
and touches the heart. Sam is a strong leading lady in all her actions. I
thought she was a great asset to the story. I could not help but feel the
emotions that Eric faced  with Karen.  I can tell that Michael Davis did
thorough research in composing this read. He instills mystery and a touch of
romance into this delightful read that makes it a keeper of a hit. This is an
absolutely wonderful tale with secrets galore, a bit of deception and a smidgen
of romance that keeps the pages turning.." (5 of 5 rating)
"Mr. Davis delivers a tale full of secrets, intrigue and betrayal while still
managing to weave in enough romance to satisfy any reader of the genre.
In this haunting and powerful novel we see things through the eyes of our
hero and it's a most refreshing change. With a clear and succinct voice
we experience that first feeling of love and romance from the perspective
of the male lead, making TAINTED HERO a unique novel in it's own
right." (5 of 5 rating)

"... make sure you have several hours and a box of Kleenex nearby because you won't want to put it down until
the very last page. Davis does a splendid job of developing his characters and bringing together several
intricately intertwined plot points. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you will definitely be left with a new perspective
on recent global occurrences which Davis has eerily foreshadowed. Eric Emerson is definitely a hero, and he
is definitely tainted by guilt and the scars of actions past, but you’ll find yourself rooting for him and his
survival in this engrossing and action-packed tale.I highly recommend Tainted Hero to any reader – whether
you love the romance, action, mystery, or nonfiction genres. Its appeal is universal and it has something
compelling to offer anyone who reads it. I loved this book and I can’t wait to read Davis’ next offering
