Thumbs up!
Cover to cover and never a dull moment. Blind Curve has what you would expect from a romantic thriller. Annie Solomon's descriptive writing puts you right there with the characters. If you're looking for suspense - you'll find it (lots of it) in this book.

Wonderful romantic suspense without perfect people
Martha Crow is a strong loner who is in some ways still hiding behind her sadness of her youth. She was known as Scarecrow and teased about being a 'plain Jane' tall gangle girl whos mother walked out at an early age causing her to have to grow up rather early. Danny is a tough cop who has the most amazing eyes. He has been an undercover cop now for a number of years and also doesn't seem to keep any women around for more than a few months. Danny and Martha are thrown together when he looses his sight. After being hit he suddenly is blind and Martha is a therapist who teaches blind people how to live and take care of themselves. While Danny doesn't know who she is she immediately is again drawn to him, as she has never really gotten over the crush she had on him in high school. The problem is that someone wants Danny dead and when Martha sees this person they suddenly want her dead also. This is where the adventure begins. They are spirited off to a safe house by his supervisors and then thing go even further wrong and they are on the run for their lives. I have to say one of the most compelling things about this book is that Martha doesn¿t suddenly transform into a beauty. This is a story about 2 survivors who finally find each other and come together to make a wonderful team. But, will Danny blow it all due to his pride. The story is well written and the first by AS that I have read (going to read the others now). Characters are real and you can see how they react to things as normal people would. I recommend this book to all who like romantic suspense.

Terrific romance
Two days ago Sokanan, New York undercover cop Danny ¿Turq¿ Sinofsky banged his head during a crime scene, but thought nothing of it. Now he is working a sting operation to buy illegal weapons from a teenager at the abandoned McClanhan warehouse when shots are fired. The fifteen years old seller is hit and Danny is unable to see. His ¿ghosts¿ come to the rescue.................... The doctors explain that he suffers from cortical blindness caused by a stroke when he hit his head two days ago. He is irate and feeling hopeless, but insists he will see soon. Orientation mobility specialist Martha ¿Scare¿ Crowe is assigned to teach Danny how to live in the dark, but he rejects her overtures. She, in turn, hides her identity because back in high school she fell in unrequited love with her patient. As she bullies him, someone fears he will regain his vision and eye witness the criminal so attempts are made on his and Martha¿s lives. No place, not even a safehouse, can keep the pair out of harm¿s way; though Martha¿s wonders if the real danger is to her heart......................... The key to the terrific BLIND CURVE is the professional relationship between Danny and Martha as she cajoles, nags, and challenges him to adjust while he clings to the hope that he will wake up with his eyesight back. The intrigue is well done enhancing this fine tale as Annie Solomon uses Danny¿s new blindness as a handicap to their safety and in turn to his mental well being. The story line starts off as a police procedural but switches more into a medical romantic suspense starring a teacher and her angry reluctant pupil............................ Harriet Klausner
