Daria Tate just found out her entire world has been crushed when she comes home to discover her house burning to the ground. Inside that house is the woman who saved Daria from the foster care system, her best friend and her boss. Mrs. Stone could have never gotten out without Daria’s help. Lost with grief, Daria can’t function well and her only thought is to call the two men who hold her heart but they are a couple and she believes would only help her out of pity.

Gage Mulligan and Roman Foster were also two lost kids at one time who Mrs. Stone brought into her house. Now they are firemen and yes they are a couple in a unique lifestyle. However they have both wanted Daria to be a part of their lives for a while. Only a promise to Mrs. Stone has kept them quiet, but the night fire destroys Daria’s safe place they decide to get the woman they have always wanted.

Daria can’t believe that not only did Roman and Gage come find her but they want exactly the same thing she does. Torn between believing her dreams are coming true and not wanting to intrude on Roman and Gage’s love for each other, Daria is scared to reach for what she has always wanted. Roman and Gage are more than lovers, they are also Master and Slave. Bringing Daria into their home and lives also means having her accept their entire lifestyle. Love between the three of them isn’t an issue, what is, is if Daria can accept the BDSM life and what it will mean to her to join Roman and Gage forever.

A night of horror and grief leads to a loving relationship for three special friends. Daria’s Heroes shows Daria, Roman and Gage just how true love can complete a person. Watching while Daria deals with an over whelming grief had me hoping that a sliver lining would be coming for her. And that is exactly what happened when Roman and Gage learned of the fire. I was not surprised at all that Daria was able to enfold herself into the special life that Roman and Gage had already built. By the end of their story, I could tell that they were already on the way to building a new and exciting future for all of them – one filled with lots of love. Daria’s Heroes is filled with erotic passion, strong friendships and a deep love that isn’t to be missed by lovers of the BDSM lifestyle.
