The Brave Line

The Brave Line - Kate  Stewart The characters and romance piece were patently Stewart. More avaiable emotional woman, reluctant guy determined to never be burned again. I like Rowdy, I did. I like Stewart's writing. I enjoyed the book. What I didn't enjoy is the social commentary that was reductionist and somewhat stereotypical. I think she tried, but it got a little "Empathy for the police, Blue Lives Matter" for me. The complex racial run-ins were far too black and white in the book, and it made us feel like the police were being scapegoated and victimized.
