Summary: Emotionally satisfying, good to the last drop
Review: Clare moved into the "bad side of town" when her prosecutor husband was killed in the area while interviewing a witness. She's fighting to save the neighborhood children from gangs and crime by hiring them to work at her neighborhood vegetable gardens. Matt moves in because the police department is starting a neighborhood policing program and since he's a still-recovering wounded hero, his high visibility and limited duty make him perfect for the job. He's not looking for romance. Neither is Clare, especially not with someone who gets shot at for a living. But Kantra makes the whole thing smooth as silk. It's believable, involving, emotional, action-packed, and just generally all-round wonderful. No wonder this book won Romance Writers of America's 1998 Golden Heart Award for Romantic Suspense before it was published.

Summary: An excellent book! And a gift with words...
Review: I can't wait to pick up my very own copy of this GREAT book by Virginia Kantra, so I can re-read whenever I want. THe characters are intriguing and sometimes it just AMAZES me the way an author can describe things!VK shows such a gift with words, and I don't want to give much away, but on pp. 14-15, part of her description had me LOL: "...his masculine charge lit her screens up like incoming missiles over the desert." I just LOVED this book! What's next from this talented new author? I can hardly wait!

Summary: I'm thrilled to debut as an Intimate Moments writer.
Review: Romantic Times had this to say: "Impressive newcomer Virginia Kantra makes a smashing debut as a beautiful widow takes on THE REFORMING OF MATTHEW DUNN (4), the sexy cop assigned to her community policing effort. But after the murder of her prosecutor husband, can she risk loving another man whose job puts him in mortal peril? Ms. Kantra creates superb romantic tension between her reluctant lovers as well as a memorable cast of characters." Author Marilyn Pappano wrote: "Virginia Kantra is one of the most talented new authors I've read. Her writing is smooth, her plot tightly-woven, and her characters come alive. THE REFORMING OF MATTHEW DUNN is definitely a keeper." I hope you enjoy Matt and Clare's story!

Summary: The Reforming of Matthew Dunn - an emotionally packed story
Review: that pulls at your heart. Virginia Kantra weaves a magic with her pen, creating characters that truly come to life. Clare Harmon is a woman who's known loss, but is strong enough to risk her heart again when she meets Matthew Dunn. Matt is a man who's seen society at its worst, but in Clare he sees only the best. Asking her to take a chance on him seems too much, but he doesn't take into account that Clare's not the type to wait to be asked - she just gives her all. This book isn't just something you should read - it's something you must read.
