Summary: The "Light Street" series keeps getting better
Review: Jessie Douglas immensely enjoys her work with Baltimore's underprivileged. While working late into the night on a needed report to provide funds to an impoverished family, a teenager enters the office to demand she accompany him in order to help the feverish Dr. Miguel. She follows the lad to Miguel's pad where she finds the sick healer struggling with malaria that he originally caught in San Mateo. Jessie and Miguel have been very attracted to one another, but for some unknown reason, he shuns her like she is the plague.

As Jessie helps Miguel recover, he wonders if she will betray him like the previous female he trusted. In San Marco, the clinic run by Dr. Valero, a noted plastic surgeon, was attacted by thugs, leaving everyone dead. The assailant, Carlos Jurado, knows that Valero is the only person who can identify that he still lives after receiving facial surgery. Valero is hiding in the Baltimore slums, but Carlos is coming.

SHATTERED LULLABY is a taut romantic suspense that raises the quality level of the already superior "43 Light Street" series. The lead protagonists are a fabulous couple, who must wonder if love can surmount a professional killer and his thugs. The mean streets of the city also add a touch of authenticity not often seen in category romance. Sub-genre fans will take Rebecca York's newest tale to heart even as they scour used bookstores for previous works by this top author.

Summary: Great read!
Review: Shattered Lullaby will take you through a wringer of emotions. Honor and ego war with life and death until love emerges the winner. Definitely worth reading!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Rich in suspense and love that refuses to be denied.
Review: Through many years, Rebecca York has never failed to provide me with a wonderful read.

This one is no exception. The 43rd Light Street series is, in my opinion, one of the finest in romantic suspense.

Latin men can be some of the sexiest. In Shattered Lullaby, Miguel most certainly is. Whether Jessie is an angel is debatable, but it's sufficient that Miguel thinks of her in those terms. He wouldn't be her hero, otherwise.

Author Ruth Glick's characters are easy to love and hate. Ruth is a fine writer who never disappoints. You'll love this book. -Lee Emory
