Assignment: Baby!

Officer Hawk Adams had faced some pretty tough characters in his day. But nothing had prepared him for his latest assignment—minding a twenty-pound rabble-rouser with an almost criminal record for spitting up and raising a fuss. So Hawk did what any self-respecting bachelor cop with a baby would do: he called for backup….

This review is from: Baby In Blue (Silhouette Romance) (Paperback)

Ok. Ignore the slightly cheesy cover illustration. This is a fabulous book. But at the risk of irritating its other reviewer to no end, part of its appeal lies precisely in that babies-daddies-families direction! And I unapologetically love that about it! Hawk Adams is a hard-edged, huge-hearted, big-city police officer trying, with limited success, to adjust to the vagaries of small-town life in Sleepy Grove, Idaho. Kate Shea is the town "psychic," a widow whose ability to "see" missing people has helped the local police more than once. But when two local girls go missing, and Hawk is forced to work with Kate, his cynicism threatens to derail things from step one. Only being unexpectedly stranded with his baby niece could bring this tough cop around so quickly! This is a sweet, funny romance, low on trauma, with a surprisingly profound message about the power of love and kindness, and of believing in other people. There really isn't anyone else like Cara Colter for creating heroes I'd really enjoy being with! Note: This book is the "prequel" to Husband in Red.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Canadian treasure!, May 20, 1999

This review is from: Baby In Blue (Silhouette Romance) (Paperback)

I wish there were some way to awaken the collective consciousness of Canadian romance readers. Cara Colter, aka Quinn Wilder, is an absolute treasure of a writer!!! She's funny, astute, articulate and wildly individualistic, even when catering to the frequently ridiculous constraints of the romance genre, as in the current tiresome obsession with weddings, babies, daddies (for God's sake, Harlequin and Silhouette editors, give your good writers and faithful readers an everloving BREAK from this forcefeed of pap and pablum!!!). At least in Colter's capable hands, this mundane formula is rendered palatable. With her, it's a gourmet feast!
