Playlist for Resisiting the Hero
by Cindi Madsen
When it comes to most anything, I need music. I can’t clean without it, and I definitely can’t write without it. Before every book I make a play list, and then as I write and different scenes or themes come in, I add to it. Thought I’d share my playlist for Resisting the Hero and highlight some of the songs and why I chose them. You can find the full playlist to this, and all my books, here: http://cindimadsen.com/Music.html
Classy Girls by the Lumineers. Connor and Faith’s first meeting is a little rough. She’s mad at her brother when she charges into the Rusty Anchor to try to find him, and Connor hits on her. The line “classy girls don’t kiss in bars, you fool” totally fits their first interaction & makes me laugh. Of course once Faith finds out Connor is one of the reasons her brother joined the SWAT team, things go from bad to worse.
Lucky Strike by Maroon 5. (First of all, who doesn’t swoon over Adam Levine’s voice? Gah!) With lyrics like:
Got me so high, and then she dropped me
But she got me, she got me, she got me bad
One in a million, My lucky strike
And basically just the whole song fits, plus it makes me wanna dance.
Then there are songs like Beneath Your Beautiful by Labrinth & Emeli Sande, Say it Again by Mariah McMannus (So it seems, I'm fighting harder for you than I ever did for anything), Distance by Christina Perri, Look After You by the Fray (this song is one of my favorite love songs ever!), and a remix of Wherever You Will Go by Charlene Soraia.
Basically it’s a mix of kind of feisty songs mixed with romance, since that’s what the book is too. So there’s a bit of an insight into the music of Resisting the Hero. And since we’re talking romance songs what are some songs that make you swoon? I’m always looking to add more to my playlists.

Book Description:
Resisting her brother’s best friend is futile…
Faith Fitzpatrick isn’t looking for a hero. Burned one too many times in the past, she’s now sworn them off completely. And when her brother’s best friend, Connor, convinces him to join the dangerous SWAT team, Faith has never been more anti-hero. What’s wrong with having a safe job? There’s nothing safe about Connor. Confident, sexy, and sporting a six-pack that should be illegal, he’s everything she doesn’t want.
When his best friend’s sister moves to town, local cop Connor Maguire knows he’s in trouble. Faith is feisty, funny, and talks trash like nobody’s business. She’s also his partner’s sister—and so totally off limits. Working on the Fall Festival together, they agree to a truce and become friends. But the more time Connor spends with Faith, the more he’s willing to risk the wrath of her brother. If he could only convince her to take a risk on him, too.
