| Dawn Endeavor is the US military's second successful generation of genetically enhanced super soldiers. However, these soldiers are not just physically enhanced, they also possess various psychic abilities which make them a very efficient fighting unit. Kisho Hayashi's new found ability allows him to see the future which he and his fellow Circs regard as beneficial. However, Hayashi's prophecies fixate upon the one man who Hayashi would rather forget. Mrs. Sharpe, the director of Dawn Endeavor, has alternate plans which will bring Hayashi in intimate contact with the focus of his visions.
In Hayashi's Hero, as with the previous book in the series, Mrs. Sharpe becomes an intrigual part of assisting the hero and his love interest into a happily ever after. I really enjoyed the emerging fairy godmother arc which Ms. Harte appears to be developing with this series. This story was particularly fascinating as Hayashi's internally torn between his perception of his sexuality and the resultant guilt of the Circ's sexual circumstances. I will not reveal the other hero in the story as the suspense of discovering his identity enhanced my reading experience. I will, however, note that I like this character very much and he was a very good balance to Hayashi's character. Ms. Harte has diverged, albeit very successfully, in that there is no heterosexual interaction depicted in this book. So readers beware, as par for the course in a Marie Harte book, there is an abundance of sexual interactions amongst the characters. Nonetheless, this book will definitely keep the reader's attention as it involves male/male, male ménage, and sex in the shifted form. The book continues the series in a very satisfying way. As usual, I enjoyed my return interlude in the world of Ms. Harte's Dawn Endeavor and am anxious for a return trip.
