Home at Last - Softcover

Bestselling romance author Katherine Stone entertains readers with her latest contemporary, Home at Last. KCOR's new anchorwoman, Galen Chandler, is, to put it kindly, a disaster. She has none of the sophistication, education, or presence of New York's beloved Marianne McLain, KCOR's long-time anchor who has recently died of cancer. But mysteriously, Galen has been offered the job of a lifetime and is trying hard to make a go of it. When she lands an exclusive interview with reclusive Lieutenant Lucas Hunter, New York's best police negotiator, during a touchy hostage situation at a local hospital, Galen cannot bring herself to report the scoop that would cement her career but endanger the life of one of the young hostages. Lucas, drawn to the young reporter in spite of his conviction to remain impartial, finds himself in the position of protecting Galen when the serial killer preying on the women of Lucas's past draws her into the twisted plot. Close quarters and an inexplicable mutual attraction work their magic on Lucas and Galen, binding them together forever. While a few improbable plot points may occasionally distract the reader, the compelling characters and lovely romantic relationship that develops between them make for an enjoyable read. --Alison Trinkle
