Disclaimer:   Since do not believe Karen Rose can write a bad book, this review is predisposed to weigh heavily towards seeing everything she writes in a bright, over-the-top, awe-inspiring way.   Have read this book twice.   This was the first Karen Rose book I ever read . . . prompting the search for each and every book she has written.

Have You Seen Her? is Karen Rose's second book.   This book is really a stand alone book, but since the hero of this book played a captivating secondary role in Don't Tell (Book One), have decided to consider all Rose's books one great big long series (named: A Karen Rose Novel).   On with the review:

A sense of suspenseful interest and fear is immediately encountered as Rose sets the stage for the emergence of a serial killer who will some day play havoc somewhere in America.   It was easy to almost feel the frustration of the police officer who stood among picketers who had driven a cruel, sadistic killer (and his family) from their neighborhood because a legal technicality allowed him to run free.   Rose tantalized readers with just enough information about this off-duty cop without delivering any pertinent details about him or the killer.

It was a great relief to finally meet this Seattle, Washington police detective (in Chapter 10) when his partner told him to tune in to a CNN broadcast about a serial killer in Raleigh, North Carolina.   Neil Davies was the lead investigator in the death of four sixteen-year-old cheerleaders in his precinct.   Even though three years had passed, Neil had never stopped looking for the killer, William Rudolf Parker, who seemed to have vanished into thin air.   It is amazing how Rose reveals the guilt and depth of commitment that Neil feels towards finding justice for these girls.   He has destroyed his marriage and it is easy to see that he is on the road to alcoholism.   Even though his role is secondary, Neil's well-developed personality presents a strong presence.

Another amazing talent Rose has is making her characters multi-dimensional.   Not only does she send Neil Davies to North Carolina to seek justice, but she involves him in the intimate lives of the hero and heroine of the story.   Neil is immediately attracted to Dr. Jenna Marshall and lets North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation Special Agent Steven Thatcher know he has competition for Jenna's affections.

Steven is a strong, flawed, realistic character.   He has to juggle so many emotional irons, it is amazing he can function.   First, his boss, Lennie Farrell, is constantly checking on him to make sure he can handle this gruesome case because of the "incident" that happened to his seven-year-old son, Nicky, six months ago.   (For a detailed account of the incident, read Don't Tell.)   Second, a month ago, his seventeen-year-old son, Brad, changed from an over-achieving "wonderboy" into a sullen sarcastic, angry stranger.   Third, his endearing Aunt Helen continues to play matchmaker, setting him up with a constant string of blind dates.   And, fourth, but certainly, not finally, Steven is immediately and unwillingly attracted to Jenna.

Steven's sons are full of life, rich in personality and produce a myriad of emotions.   Can almost feel Steven's pain because not only does Nicky no longer laugh, but will not allow anyone (including his father) to give him a hug.   Steven's frustration, concern and bewilderment are readily apparent as Brad makes constant snide, and meaningful only to him remarks to his father.   The middle son, Matt, could so easily be overlooked because he is suffering no trauma, but his snarky remarks and amazingly engaging conversations reveal a child very much like his father (full of wisdom, humor, and intuition).

Jenna is just as multi-dimensional as Steven.   The following characters offer supporting roles in Jenna's life.   {1} Casey Ryan is an English teacher, Jenna's best friend and her roommate from Duke.   Casey is a fun-loving party girl who is on a mission to throw Jenna back into the dating arena.   {2} Lucas Bondioli is the high school guidance counselor, a friend who offers constant support and several entertaining tidbits.   {3} Seth Llewellyn adds great depth to Jenna's life in his role as "Dad" and reveals why she is reticent to become involved with another man after the death of her fiancé, Adam (Seth's son).   {4} Mrs. Kasselbaum is the nosey neighbor who engages each and every visitor to Jenna's apartment in gossipy revealing conversations.   {5} Allison is Seth's daughter, who constantly reminds Jenna of Adam and gives readers many laughs over her inability to cook an edible meal.   {6} Not to be forgotten, Jenna's two amazingly trained German Shepherd dogs, Jim and Jean-Luc add a rich quality to the story.

Rose does such an amazing job of stirring, yet blending, so many different spices into the soup that makes up Have You Seen Her?.  The suspense became so intense at times, that had to put book down and pace just to get rid of the tension Rose created.   There are two suspenseful spices thrown into the mix.   First, Steven (and his team) are looking for the man who is killing various high school cheerleaders that are disappearing from their rooms at night.   Second, Jenna has failed Roosevelt High's star quarterback which results in his suspension from the team.

Although the members of Steven's team do not play large roles in the book, they are displayed with interesting attributes that add depth and perception to the story.   {1} Agent Harry Grimes is new to SBI and exhibits a weak stomach at the crime scenes; {2} Kent Thompson is the rookie forensics technician whose easy manner and controlled compassion make him an asset; {3} Sandra Kates is a seasoned SBI investigator whose niche expertise is in sexual deviants; {4} Meg Donnelly, the SBI staff psychologist, profiles the killer; and {5} Liz Johnson, the Assistant DA is added to make sure no loopholes are created.

While Steven is looking for a serial killer, Jenna is beset with incidents of vandalism.   Jenna must battle {1} Dr. Keith Blackman, the overtly political, yet sleazy principal; {2} Victor Lutz, the arrogant, distinguished thug, and father of the star quarterback; and {3} friends and teammates of Roosevelt High's quarterback, Rudy Lutz.

So how can a romance develop between two characters who are engaged in such struggles?   Don't know how she does it, but Rose is just as talented at introducing hot, spicy, magic love scenes filled with emotional wonder and angst into the mix so that they blend naturally with the suspense.   When Brad fails his chemistry test, Jenna is compelled to call the father.   Steven bowls Jenna over (literally and figuratively).   The attraction is immediate and constant.   Although both Steven and Jenna fight the attraction, it is a relief when the struggle coalesces into hot sessions of lovemaking.   Naturally, emotional potholes must be navigated on the road to Steven and Jenna's happily-ever-after.

Added to the muckle are two additional Lutz family members; namely, Nora (wife) and Josh (Rudy's "special needs" twin).   It is obvious that Victor married Nora for her father's money.   It is amazing how Rose takes a mundane, yet personality-revealing, item (or issue) and turns it into a tool for humor and snide remarks as she pours it through the story.   One such tidbit is Nora Lutz's penchant for unattractive nightgowns.   (Another is Allison's Wednesday night meat loaf.)

There is one additional character introduced into the story that creates interest and puzzlement.   Father Mike Leonie offers his patient, calm support to his childhood best friend, Steven, as he battles with the traumas of falling for a woman and managing an angry son.   Rose writes wonderful dialogue that potently displays the camaraderie between Steven and Mike.   Father Mike is also supportive to the parents of a missing victim.   The aspect that makes one wonder what Rose is up to (perhaps, a future book): Father Mike's name is tarnished when he is inserted into the investigation as a possible suspect because the first two victims were members of his parish.

Karen Rose's Have You Seen Her? is a 5-Star book of Romantic Suspense.   It features: {1} a buff, gorgeous alpha hero, full of intelligence, integrity, angst and compassion; {2} an amazingly intelligent, talented, gorgeous, self-sufficient, confident, stand-up-for-herself alpha heroine; {3} incredibly well-developed, interesting supporting characters that add great depth to the story; {4} plenty of action and adventure to keep the story interesting and moving at a fast pace; {5} suspense so intense that it generates nervous tension throughout the body; {6} quick, heightened emotional and romantic attraction between the hero and heroine; {7} spicy, heated love scenes; {8} amazing dialogue; {9} laugh out loud humor; and {10} sympathetic tears.

On to the nit-picky little things that don't really count, yet distract.   Brad Thatcher was fifteen years old in Don't Tell.   Six months later in Have You Seen Her? he is seventeen.   Page 70, the time transition date is wrong: "October 11", should be "October 10."

Have You Seen Her? Quotations:
29Too bad evil people sometimes live in peaceful towns, Steven thought.   His job would be so much more uneventful if all the evil people congregated together, killing one another instead of innocent people.
165. . . Adam deserved a hell of a lot more than being store-brand vanilla.   . . .
166. . .   He'd quit ten years ago, but there didn't pass a day that didn't have him fighting the craving.   . . .
182Stupid juvenile delinquents whose parents hadn't bothered to teach them right from wrong.   Idiotic kids who had no respect for other people's property.   . . .
187. . .   If only the whole world could be like dogs, she thought.   Life would certainly be simpler.   . . .
205. . .   What the public never seemed to realize is that crime happened to people.   It wasn't sensational, it wasn't thrilling.   Crime happened to people, to families, tore them apart.   . . .
224. . .   Lose the timetable, Steven.   Let life happen as it happens.   Stop trying to make everything happen to your specification.   Enjoy your life.   . . .
224. . .   Life is not black or white.   One or two.   Yes or no.   On or off.   Nothing is safe.   Nothing is guaranteed.   . . .
256"And your mama never said she was proud of you."
340"I guess I just wanted to be different."   . . .   "Special."   . . .
373"My dad loved me."
"But not enough to make your mother stop criticizing you.   Not enough to take care of you.   Not enough to make sure you knew you didn't have to do everything all alone."   . . .
