5.0 out of 5 stars The futuristic that changed my mind, June 24, 1999

This review is from: Nighthawk (Futuristic Romance) (Mass Market Paperback)

I have to say, I was never a fan of these stories. The SciFi always seemed to get in the way of the characters, and strange words and new creatures always seemed like gimmicks that never quite gelled. I picked up this book because I got Dara Joy's books and this always popped up as a recommendation and boy! Was I glad I did. Talon and Kari are a wonderful couple, their struggles as they deal with being on opposite sides of the law and their dealings with their feelings for each other were wonderful to read about. I hope Ms. Kyle writes another futuristic romance soon.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun Read, December 11, 1998

I always have to re-adjust my standards when I move from reading a bunch of sci-fi books to a futuristic romance. This one is pretty good. Once you get past the unbelievable premise that a space faring race can't come up with anything better then swords and knives to fight with just because they don't have fuel for they phasers (like what about guns) and the hero's totally non-believable Archiles Heal - this book reads well. The author did a good job at dealing with technology, and the details about computers were believable - most futuristic romance writers seems to forget the future part. The characters were well drawn and their relationship believable. The Heroine was the strongest I'd seen in a long time, and I liked that. The only thing that annoyed me was that the Heroine physically assaulted the hero multiple times - something that would have been unacceptable if the roles were reversed. Also the Hero kept making comments about looking for the the soft female underneath, as if that was needed for her to be a desireable woman.

If you like futuristic romances, this one is a must have!! It's sweet, sexy, and original (which I sadly can't say about many books on the market). One thing I can say about this book, if this is the author's first book, she's going to be hot, Hot, HOT as she gets more out!!! :-)
