Customer Reviews

a romance novel with a kid?

who wants to read a romance with a little boy on the cover? i did, because i'd read salonen's previous book and thoroughly enjoyed it. and i don't ordinarily like to read about little kids, but brady seemed to be a real person, and of course the 2 adults in the story (you gotta have a romance, right?) behaved in just the right ways! the ending was a surprise (which is not something you can say about most romances!) and i immediately ordered salonen's newest, back in kansas.

Best of Harlequin's Superromance Line

Debra Salomen's latest offers 297 pages filled with intrigue, good plotting, and great characters. You'll have a hard time putting this book down once you crack it open. Lawrence "Ren" Bishop is a rising star in politics. Two years ago he spent the night with a mysterious woman who called herself "Jewel" and wants to make certain said night won't come back to haunt him at reelection time. Ren hires his PI friend Bo to find Jewel and ascertain whether or not she's a potential blackmail threat. When Bo returns with the news that Jewel's real name is Julia and that she was killed in a boating accident, Ren feels saddened rather than relieved. His sadness then turns to shock when Bo announces that Julia gave birth to a son named Brady roughly nine months to the day of their fling...Bookstore owner Sara Carsten has been raising her nephew Brady since her sister and brother-in-law were tragically killed. She thinks nothing of it when a man named Bo and his handsome friend Ren start hanging around her bookstore. Sara finds her thoughts turning more and more to Ren as the days progress, so naturally she is devastated when he confesses who he is and why he sought her out to begin with. Ren might be able to do things to her heart that she hadn't thought possible, but there was no way on earth she was giving up Brady without a fight...-full review originally published in The Romance Reader

Good debut

Lawrence "Ren" Bishop is a third generation judge, but unlike his now deceased father who seemingly loved the bench, Ren finds it tedious, especially the performing lawyers. He loves the law and would relish returning to environmental law. However, his mother has political ambitions for him and he hates disappointing her. Ren knows one indiscretion two years ago when he had the only one night-stand in his life with Jewel could end his political career. Now his best friend private investigator Bo Lester informs him that Jewel was the married Julia Carsten Hovant, dead in a speedboat accident. That shocker is topped by the fact that Julia gave birth to a boy that mathematically could mean Ren is a father. Julia's sister Sara raises the child.Though the book seems closed, Ren's conscience bothers him. He needs closure about the child and is not sure what he will do if the lad is his. However, when he meets Sara, Ren feels his world has turned upside down due to the immense attraction. She feels it too, but Ren is engaged to a news reporter and has ambitions that mean he can't have Sara even if he loves her.HIS DADDY'S EYES is an entertaining contemporary romance that stars two wonderful lead charcaters. Ren is going through an adult crisis wondering if it is time to take his own path. Sara is a fabulous female lead player though a bit too perfect as she raises her nephew and always provides a helping hand. Together, they are a wonderful team struggling with life's uncertainties. Bo and his friend Claudie provide energy and a deserved sequel. Debra Salonen provides the audience with a strong tale of love.Harriet Klausner
