I wasn't as fond of this book as I was others by Hoag. In my opinion the mystery part of it was soft, and the love story wasn't that great either.

The basic story is the heroine is a counselor for runaway girls. They move to a new 'house' and one of the residents in the neighborhood organizes a group to protest. The neighbors feel that the home will ruin their nice safe neighborhood. Things start going wrong in the neighborhood and, of course, the teens are blamed. Mixed in along with this is the 'romance' between the counselor and the senator who is there in an attempt to save the home. The counselor, Lynn, thinks that the senator is there just to get camera time and the senator is frustrated by Lynn's repeated efforts to push him away because of her past experiences.

I guess my main problem with the book is it lacked the spark that most of Hoag's other books have. It wasn't horrible, but it was by no means my favorite by Hoag. I would definitely recommend some of her newer books over this, try Mercy for example. Whichever book you end up picking, I hope you enjoy it :)

I enjoyed The White Knight by Tami Hoag. It was well written, yet totally different from her other books. This book dealt with a home for troubled girls fitting into a neighbor, where the neighbors did not want them there; especially one individual. A politician steps in to help. The story twists and turns around events that start to happen around the neighbor once the girls move into the neighborhood. As time goes on the politician and the counselor become involved with each other and who is doing the all the vandelism. Will good conquer evil? Will love prevail? What do you think? It was a light reading book that I enjoyed. Lynn Sharrott did an excellent job reading the book. I had not ever listened to her before but I enjoyed her reading tremendously.

Once upon a time Tami Hoag wrote romances. This is a rather simplistic romance and not one of the mystery/suspense novels that she now writes.

She is better at the latter than the former.

I listened to this on CD and found it to not be one of Hoag's better works.

As a Tami Hoag fan, I was a bit disappointed in this book. It didn't have the suspense or tension she put into most of her other books. I'm not a love story fan and this book seemed to be all love story and sex. If you're into that stuff, read it. You'll love it.

I would recommend these two book by Ms. Hoag if you want adventure and suspense mixed with some romance. Kill the Messenger had no love story, but it's an excellent read.

Came in very good condition. Love Tami Hoag. Can't wait to read it.

Fairly predictable story. But still entertaining.
Gives hope to all adults that there is someone for
each of us.

I enjoyed reading this novel it was a classic romance with a hint of suspence. The charaters were people you could relate too and were different than the typicle romance novel. The heroes were not shining pillers of society, they all had a past and flaws they needed to over come. You really had to wonder right up until the end if the romance would become fullfilled. I also have only ever cried in two other novel/books i have read in my live. Tami Hoags "The Last White Knight" has now become the third. This one is a keeper and one you will want to read again.

I loved it, then gave it to my daughter, she loved it too. Now she's looking for her own white knight. She's hoping there's still one out there for her.

This is the first Tami Hoag novel that I have read. It was very similar to a Sandra Brown romance novel. Very formula, with less sizzle than Brown's stuff for me. Not awful, not wonderful just ok. Some of the writing style, especially in the beginning was very hoaky and cliche.

The story is about a counselor for wayward girls who fall for a Congressman (AKA the White knight). The ending dragged for me. It was a stretch with a typical plot --heroine is not good enough for the hero.

Overall just okay.
