Grippando might not be the most lapidary of legal thriller writers, but he certainly has the imagination and research skills to plot up a storm. Readers of his seventh book (after A King's Ransom) will find themselves riveted as Miami criminal lawyer Jack Swyteck—the hero of Grippando's first thriller, The Pardon—returns to discover himself and his family under attack from several corners. Jessie Merrill, a particularly hot old flame of Jack's who's now dying of ALS, has hired him in an unusual civil case involving a "viatical settlement," in which she sells an insurance policy in return for an immediate cash payment. But the doctors were wrong: Jessie isn't dying, and the shadowy consortium of Russian mobsters who bought her policy are now suing to get their money back. Jack and Jessie win the case; Jack realizes that he and the Russians have been scammed; and when a principal character turns up dead in the Swyteck bathtub, Jack's unstable wife—soon joined by a vengeful prosecutor—thinks Jack did the dirty deed. There's also a tough and dangerous young Cuban woman with reasons of her own for wanting the Russians brought down, a likable roughneck whom Jack once rescued from death row, and enough mean-spirited federal agents and prosecutors to settle a career's worth of scores for a lawyer-turned-writer like Grippando, who was a partner in Janet Reno's firm before he took up the quill.

Bedford was an established romance writer when she moved into the realm of religious fiction in 2001, with A Rose by the Door. Fans of her chart-topping secular romances will miss the sex, but Christian women seeking characters dealing with real-world problems will enjoy her second inspirational novel. Abby and David Treasure have the perfect marriage—they believe it, their nine-year-old son Braden believes it and their close-knit Christian community in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, believes it. But when a dalliance from David's past comes back to haunt him, their faith and the foundations of that marriage are tested. Susan, with whom David had an affair during Abby's pregnancy, appears bearing news of Samantha, the eight-year-old daughter David never knew he had. She's dying of leukemia and needs a bone-marrow donor: David and Braden may offer her only hope of survival. Abby and David battle with their consciences, their God and each other as they seek the right path. The novel's brisk pace is aided by Bedford's straightforward prose, a welcome relief from the flowery language typical of many romance writers. The novel's major flaw is that the characters are rather one-dimensional: their faith is too pat and their emotions, while duly noted, are never experienced fully enough by the reader to allow complete empathy. However, the issues Bedford addresses will ultimately win over inspirational romance readers. Her refusal to shy away from adultery and illegitimacy and her continued eye on God make her book an effective mix of the sacred and the profane.
