This review is from: Parent Plan (36 Hours , No 11) (Paperback)
Ms. Riggs has a rare talent for thought provoking characters and story lines. In THE PARENT PLAN, she explores the faltering marriage of Cassidy and Karen Sloane. Karen, working long hours at the Grand Junction hospital, is a dedicated, strong woman. Her husband, Cassidy, a rancher, is equally strong. But he wants Karen to stay home with their daughter, Vicky. Of course, it's more than that. Cassidy's dark past haunts him and ultimately makes him drive Karen away. On the threshold of divorce, he finally comes to terms with all his childhood terrors and realizes what he stands to lose. Karen can't understand Cassidy's dislike of her career but she won't give it up. Like so many women today, she wants it all - home, family and career. Yet if she wants to keep her family together, she has to find a way to compromise.Ms. Riggs undoubtedly creates the best 'tortured' heroes of any writer in the genre. They may be gruff, grim or downright stubborn but there's always a core of innocence inside them that appeals to us on many levels. |
