Sidekick Showcase (previously known as Sidekick Saturday) is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by Jaclyn at JC's Book Haven. There are many secondary characters that are as great as the primaries. In some cases, the sidekicks actually steal the show and you like them better than the heroine or hero. Maybe they didn't have enough page time for how great they were. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
• Choose a sidekick *or someone other than the hero or heroine* that you would like to put in the spotlight that fits in this week's type
• Share a picture (if possible) and information about the character
• Give the title and author of a book the character can be found in
• Please don't include too many spoilers when describing why the character is such a great sidekick
• Put your link in the Linky thing and comment

May's theme ~ In honor of Mother's Day we'll pick moms, grandmas, strong female mentors, etc.
As y'all know, I'm reading the Rock Chick series and I've had the pleasure of reading about several fabulous moms. But one in particular Rock Chick 'mama' stands out because she's not a mama but she sure does want to be. And her mama bear tendencies stole me heart.
My choice of character:
Daisy
from Kristen Ashley's Rock Chick Series

I met Daisy in Rock Chick Rescue and she made me take notice of her (as everyone does) with her Dolly Parton-esque looks...big hair, bigger boobs, and an even bigger personality. She likes glittery, sparkly things almost as much as she likes to take care of others and she was thrilled meeting Indy, Jet, and Ally...and now Roxie. (I'm currently reading Rock Chick Redemption) She likes having her girls around her and she'll do anything - and I mean anything - to protect them.
"You see what she's wearin'?" Daisy asked.Marcus sighed. "I see it.""No one fucks with a Smithie's girl. Not even you. Comprende?"-Daisy and Marcus, Rock Chick Rescue
"I can't have babies, Sugar. Marcus and me been tryin' for two years. But I got a motherin' instinct, believe you me, and this Mama Bear ain't lettin' her new cub get eaten by the big, bad lions, comprende?"-Daisy, Rock Chick Rescue
"All right, tell Daisy all about it.""About what?" I asked."About whatever's making your eyes sad."Holy cow. Was I that obvious?"Nothing's making me sad," I lied.She looked at me for a while. The counter guy passed me my bag and then she said, "When you're ready to talk, I'm here, comprende?"-Roxie and Daisy, Rock Chick Redemption
