5.0 out of 5 stars Recommended reading for teachers, cops, romantics at heart:) 26 Sep 2000
By Melissa P. Cooper - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Just for the record, folks, this is the first Harlequin romance I've read in at least 15 years. I stumbled onto it last Thanksgiving while visiting my husband's extended family (his aunt is a teacher), and thought it would be a good book, but was too embarrassed to ask if I could borrow it. I wrote down the title & author, thinking I'd just buy it here at Amazon. Alas, it was out of print. Just a couple of weeks ago, though, I stumbled onto a used copy via another website, and it was worth the search! Folks, this is not your standard "formula" romance with the damsel in distress waiting for the all-knowing hero to rescue her and overpower her with his. . .um. . .manhood. Mitch and Cassie are two people with whom you'll laugh. . .and cry.

Reading this book made me wish I'd ignored all the bad advice I got in the 70s about how English majors were a dime a dozen, and gone on to become a teacher, anyway. To her credit, Kathryn Shay made this one as much about the kids as she did the "romance." Cassie is not a "perfect" teacher, but she cares, she takes responsibility for herself and the cleaning up of her own messes, and she's not afraid of anything. . .except maybe letting that gorgeous Mitch get too close to her. She doesn't trust cops. This one, though, is just too good to pass up. Mitch discovers that he needs what these students have to offer--forgiveness, perspective, and a bit of closure from a hellish war trauma--as much as they need people like him and Cassie to give them hope that their own past experiences with gang life, abusive parents, or teen pregnancy do not have to blight their futures. The final scenes in the classroom will have you in tears as you read about how they all comfort and support Mitch when he has just shared the secrets he swore never to tell anyone.

And, oh yes, the scenes between Mitch and Cassie are breath-taking. My, my. Where DID I put my fan? :) I'm ready to go hunting for the sequel featuring Seth, the principal from this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great book ! 31 Aug 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
It's one of the best books I have ever read, covering aspects like love, friendship, school, relationship between teachers and students as well as the right way to go in life. One of the main reasons I like the book is that the background is a high school, a place much related to my everyday life. I will definitely get other books of the same kind !

5.0 out of 5 stars a Book of the Year candidate! 19 Mar 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Here is an intriguing very different subject which those wanting A+ category romances can turn to. It is a book that lives up to Kathryn Shay's first book (which I notice Amazon does not list?) THE FATHER FACTOR = a Harlequin Superromance # 659 1995 which is a 10 IMHO.
