    Irritating book!

    I had several problems with this one: Grace is a juvenile court judge whose daughter is out of control. Grace's solution is to keep grounding Jessica, which is pointless since her daughter ignores her and sneaks out anyway. Gee, Judge Grace, has the word 'counseling' ever been used in your courtroom? Tony has a bad opinion of Grace from the second he meets her, accusing her of child neglect etc. with no basis at all. Why? Grace is prissy and very controlling. Grace and Tony were such complete opposites that I didn't see an attraction and can't imagine a relationship between them. I understand that a woman would want to do anything to protect her child. But I didn't like Grace using her position as a judge to get special favors. I live in Columbus, it's a large city and certainly not crime free. Yet Grace had a forensics team at her house over a teddy bear. Then she got police protection for her daughter, including a cop to follow her to school after she intimated the threats were against her. She threatened to call the DA if her case wasn't given top priority and got everything she wanted. Considering she's part of the judicial system she might have realized that just because it's her daughter doesn't mean she's any more deserving of these special favors as any other child or crime victim.

    WONDERFUL BOOK. COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN!

    This is the first book by Karen Robards I have read. I am still crying about the rose garden. It has romance, suspense, real family problems and a touching story line. I plan on reading all of her suspense novels. This book was sooooo good, I couldn't put it down until I finished the book.

    Good until the end

    Karen Robards starts out great and stays great until the end. Her endings seem to fade out and she doesn't explain the reasons for the suspense. It seems like she loses focuses in the end and can't remember what was going on. But otherwise, I'd recommend the books to anyway. THe characters are likeable and the plot is usually interesting.

    Suspense at its best!!

    This is Karen Robard's best suspense novel so far. It is a story filled with gripping tension and emotion, not to mention a few twists and surprises along the way. The best part is being able to read it on my Rocketbook! I highly recommend it.

    Great romantic suspense!

    I just finished reading Karen Robards THE MIDNIGHT HOUR. I bought this one as a RocketEdition at BarnesandNoble.com and read it on my Rocket eBook,which is always a delightful experience. The book was great, of course. I love Karen Robards' romantic suspense stories. It had the normal sexy hero, strong heroine, and, as in other Robards' books I've read, an element of teenagers and parents in conflict. But this one also had a paranormal subplot that was very, very good. In fact, the last line of the book was so satisfying on a spiritual level, I got chills all the way down my spine. I highly recommend THE MIDNIGHT HOUR, either in paperback format or as an e-book.

    Liked it but loved the others

    I liked the book but if you are a big Robards fan like me you wont enjoy as much as you did Walking after Midnight and Maggy's Child. I didn't think it was as much a romance as the others..Can't wait to read the new one out on Feb. 15
