Product Description
Grace Hart seemed to have it all: a bright, beautiful daughter, a successful career as a judge, and a lovely home in an Ohio suburb. But beneath the placid veneer, darker truths lie waiting. Her fifteen-year-old, Jessica, is teetering on the cusp of drugs and delinquency. And someone is stalking the troubled teenager. Someone who has already violated their home and stolen their peace of mind.
A time to love....
Now the police are involved. Grace is relieved--and worried. Is Jessica in danger from a drug dealer who wants to silence her? Detective Tony Marino is on the case. He's too close for comfort, asking disturbing questions, probing into her long-buried past, igniting feelings Grace has tried to suppress. In Tony's strong arms, Grace finds comfort, protection--passion--as he tries to shield them from the evil lurking just beyond their door....
IT WAS JUST AFTER TWO A.M., and Jessica's bed was empty. Read the first page

Tony Marino is the investgating officer in a narcotics team who finds himself attracted to the mother of a teenage girl who got herself mixed up with the wrong crowd. What complicates the matter is the teenager's mother happens to be a Judge - Judge grace. Grace fiercly protective of her daughter and her independence, finds she has met her match in Tony, who absoluetly refuses to be intimidated by her cold authority or defensive distance. Forced to depend on each other to protect Jessica, Tony and Judge Grace soon realise as the threat inceases, that their attraction is just as compelling as the forces that threaten them all .
Good plot, and a fair amount of tension keeps this book interesting but above all, I just loved Tony! Pure, hot, tough as nails with a soft center, Tony was one HOT italian tomato! Ms Robards took the time to introduce us to his typically Italian family, and we spent a fair amout of time seeing what made him tick. Althought the ending was a tad silly, all is forgiven when Robards delivers with a sizzling sex, high tension and endearing characters.
This book as Ms Robard's trademark gruesome touches - bit of blood, crazy psycho, oh and hamster lovers may choose to abstain.
Strange things begin to happen to Grace. Somehow, a trespasser continually manages to get inside her home. Grace thinks it is the son she once gave up for adoption. Tony keeps an eye out as he feels he must protect "my girls". Tony and Grace soon fall in love. However, before they can pursue any future together, they must stop the intruder, who plans to kill both of the female Harts.
Karen Robards is a popular author whose romantic suspense novels are, rightfully so, very popular among readers. Her latest tale, THE MIDNIGHT HOUR, has a very absorbing storyline. The suspense keeps growing until the very end of the book. The characters feel genuine especially Grace's concern with her teenage daughter's aberrant behavior. Fans of romantic suspense will heartily enjoy Ms. Robards newest book.
