A womans baby is taken from her arms at 3 weeks old and she spends years trying to find him, in the mean time, starting an organization to help others find their children and becoming an advocate for parents of lost children everywhere.”
“This was one of my favorites of Linda Howard's. Dark plot lines, very sad yet good resolution. I actually cried buckets during the last part of this one. ”

You think you're the luckiest woman alive having been blessed with a healthy baby and a gorgeous and intelligent husband who adores you. Then out of the blue, two men try to snatch your baby from your arms. You keep on fighting until one of them stabs you and they leave you for dead...
Ten years ago, that horrific day happened to Milla Edge. When she was brought into the hospital, her chance of survival was nearly zero. Yet through sheer will and determination, she lived. That was how she got through - by simply refusing to give in. While her ex-husband moved on with his life, while others, even her own family, have advised her to do the same, Milla never gave up her search for Justin. Founder and director of Finders, she continues to search for him, along with hundreds of other children who share that same fate as him. And finally, it looks like she is close to uncovering the truth. But in order for her to do so, she has no choice but to join forces with the mysterious Diaz - a man with secrets, a man with his own agenda.
Diaz has always lived and worked alone. Yet for reason he cannot explain, he finds himself doing things he's never done before since meeting Milla. Always careful about divulging details about his life, Milla softens him; so much, that he will risk anything to be with her.
CRY NO MORE is a heart wrenching story of a woman's perilous journey to find her son. Linda Howard has created an intense and fast-paced tale with complex characters and emotional story that will thug at your heart. I couldn't help but feel and share Milla's pain - the anguish, torment and yearning. I desperately wanted for her to find happiness. Diaz is an enigma. He is perfectly portrayed as the hard-hearted and sinister hero who wants to help the heroine overcome the sadness that has been her life for the past ten years. After that heartbreaking meeting towards the end, I cried and I felt sad for both Milla and Diaz.
I can go on and on about this story, but let me just say that this is one of Linda Howard's best. The heroine is one of the most courageous characters you'll ever read. A definite must read! ”
“Great story. Basically it's a story of a woman, Milla, whose son was kidnapped in Mexico. She spends the next ten years trying to find him and the men who stole him. She founds a group called Finders, that looks for missing persons. The plot begins to hit closer to home as the story continues. Howard never disappoints.”
