 blown opportunity January 8, 2009
I read the first 2 books in the series and loved them - so.....I was eagerly awaiting the wrap-up book to those very well-written books. Boy, was I disappointed. Not only was this just another Tori/Sam retread, but even the plot was derivative. It was obvious that this book was some sort of contractual obligation after-thought. Don't waste your money or your time. I would have expected better of Gerri Hill and quite frankly this book was a huge mis-hit in an otherwise notable career. Where were her editors?
 more of the same & a boring mystery January 2, 2009

the romance is this book is according to a pattern which readers of gerri hill have by now come to be familiar with. they start out as friends, cannot help but fall in love, try to deny it first but cannot help the gravity of their feelings. been there, read that. as if in compensation, the love scenes are quite hot.
what really killed me was the mystery, however. it was just boring, boring, boring. and to end the book with a cliff-hanger, that seemed to be quite lazy.
Not sizzling or intense for me... December 28, 2008

I'm really torn about this latest book by Gerri Hill.
It's the continuation/conclusion of the series started with Hunter's Way, so it's a return of beloved characters. The story focuses on Casey, the character introduced in the second book of this series, In the Name of the Father, in addition to the case the homicide detectives have to solve in this crime/romance novel.
I liked the case, trying to solve the murder of young women killed by a peeping tom, I liked how the detectives worked together and brainstormed and what not.
I did not like the romance part of the book, the blurb on the back cover already alludes that Casey will fall for her new partner, Leslie Tucker (not Turner as the blurb says ;)) in a manner that is similar to the romance of Tori and Sam in book one. And that's exactly what happens, basically a re-telling of the Tori/Sam plot with some alterations thrown in. I felt bored with it and ripped off at the same time.
I wonder if it's arrogance to write/sell something that basically you've done before, or pressure to publish something, or some genius stroke of writing I fail to recognize. If you can't think of anything new to write in a series it's maybe not a good thing to continue it?
The author's note says this is the last book in the series, which I guess is a good thing, on the other hand, the crime plot of the book would provide enough material to dive into that world again, but not if the characters don't have more to say.
It's too bad that the two components of this book just aren't on the same level.

This is a very quiet and lovely story that I dismissed at first reading but have learned to love and can now read over and over. The heroine's future looks very bleak indeed, but her hard circumstances lead her to look for God. There are some very profound spiritual truths here having to do with God's care for us when life is difficult -- not everyone comes out unscathed -- and the main characters come to know God during the course of the book.
A sweet story of faith and responsiblity July 29, 2001

"Partners" is a story about a man and a woman who only know each other from passing each other on the stairs at the decrepit boarding house where they both live. One night, the man finds a baby lying on the boarding house doorstep and nearly frozen to death. Together he and the compassionate young woman fight for the baby's life, and fall in love in the process. It's a little bit simpler than a lot of Hill's books, but it's still a sweet story with a message of faith at the core.
