5.0 out of 5 stars a must read, December 8, 1998

This review is from: Cop (Silhouette Desire) (Paperback)

This was my first book from the author Karen Leabo. I was hooked. This cop has a lot of sensitivity, yet as macho as necessary. Karen Leabo is able to write male characters that really seem to care for the women that they are falling in love with. If you haven't tried one of her books, it is time...

3.0 out of 5 stars "I left my Heart (ta da) in Dallas Southside", February 5, 2003

This review is from: Cop (Silhouette Desire) (Paperback)

Thanks, Tony (Bennett)...or should we say Tony Griffin, the hero of this "romance." Delia Pryde, a young cop wannabe, falls in love with Tony, and he with her, but there's a problem: two cops don't make a right (?). Oh, Delia's uncle Tab is also a cop, Tony's superior, and he is more than a little ambivalent about his niece following in his footsteps. Especially in the Southside of Dallas, where all the druggies and gang bangers hang. Maybe on the Northside, where the manicured lawns of the white families leave little for cops to do. Well, after some soul-searching, both Tony and Delia give a little to accommodate their love for each other, and the story ends with a bang (a whimper?), which brings the whole book up to average level (3 stars). If you don't know Dallas, you may learn a little about its demography. You won't learn much else, but some emotions may be aroused. In the end, you may wonder how long the marriage of Tony and Delia is going to last. It's one of those based on physical attraction, and the couple never does get around to discussing finances, children, and other details of a marital relationship. My guess is they'll stick it out for maybe five years, a little longer if they have a child or two, but not much. Diximus.
