Redemption

Back Cover description: A SECOND CHANCE...When a beautiful stranger saved the life of Jack Dugan's daughter, Jack knew he had to find this mystery woman. He would do anything to repay her. But Grace Solarez turned out to be more than he expected, for her sad brown eyes told him she needed to be saved, too. AT LOVE? After losing the one thing most dear to her, Grace felt she had no hope. Until the night she saved Jack's little girl. Soon Grace began to care again about something--about this sexy single dad and his daughter. But would it all disappear when she found out the truth about Jack Dugan?I agree with the reviewer from Florida. Great story and interesting plot. The author has done a remarkable job given the size of these types of books. You like and feel for both Grace and Jack. The plot description is slightly misleading in that Grace starts to care, but it's about finding the people who sold the guns that killed her daughter. As this part of the plot develops, she realizes that she has to live. The author's feel for the grief that this woman is going through is amazing. Hopefully, the author will write about Grace's partner, Beau Riley.

Emotional, Suspenseful Category Romance

Grace Solarez's 11-year-old daughter Marissa was killed in a drive-by shooting exactly one year ago from this night. Desperate to end the pain, Grace finds herself contemplating the taking of her own life. Before Grace attempts anything drastic, Fate intervenes and she finds herself pulling a kidnapped 5-year-old girl out of a car about to explode. She saves the girl's life, but leaves the scene before she can be asked any questions by the authorities.A week later, Jack Dugan stops at nothing to find the woman who saved his daughter Emma's life. He isn't certain if Grace was on the scene because she was a part of the kidnapping plot or if she was simply a very brave, heroic woman who happened to be in the right place at the right time. Either way, he owed her for saving Emma's life.This was an extremely well written category romance. In shorter books such as these, either the character development or the plot or the romance tends to suffer because of the constraining 250 pages given to the author to work with. Ms. Thayne worked well within the limits and none of the points of the book suffered. The character development was beyond excellent, the plot was engaging and suspenseful, and the relationship between the hero and heroine was superbly written. "Saving Grace" is a definite winner.
