Bridgette
Tate is a single, successful prosecuting attorney.
As the only daughter of a school teacher and prominent Illinois
Supreme Court judge, she knows that she is blessed. There
are a few things that are very close to her heart — her
relationship with God, her work as an attorney, her support
and sponsorship of a shelter for abused women and children — and
Rene Anthony Davis. Bridgette fell in love with Rene during
their senior year in high school, and she is thoroughly convinced
that he is the man that God created just for her. While Bridgette
remains hopelessly devoted to Rene, two other men are competing
for her heart — Kevon McMillan, a successful attorney
who Bridgette met in law school, and Larry Anderson, a law
enforcement officer and friend who has been hired by Rene
to protect Bridgette. Time is passing quickly — will
Bridgette make the right choice — for her heart and
her future?
Rene Anthony Davis is a multi-faceted man who’s got
a number of issues that he’s trying to work through.
He’s on a personal mission to avenge the murder of
his father, and he continues to struggle with feelings of
guilt associated with the deaths of other loved ones. Since
Rene has experienced such traumatic losses, he has become
ruthless and cynical, and tries to deny his personal needs
and desires. He has no time for love. But he always seems
to find time to play super hero to friends, acquaintances,
and even strangers. All of this amounts to Rene having a
lot of ongoing drama in his life.
Rene’s obsession with vengeance, along with his efforts
to conquer his own personal demons and help his friends,
may be leading him away from what’s really important,
and what can ultimately help him — the love and support
of a good woman.

No Time for Love
Mission of Revenge, February 9, 2007
Reviewer: The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers (RAWSISTAZ.com)
Being young and experiencing tragic events while growing up is not easy in the real world or in fiction; No Time for Love by Conrad Prophet doesn't make it any easier.
No Time for Love is a captivating saga of a man fighting his childhood demons and facing two sides of his life. Rad is a heartless person who is out to avenge the wrongs done to his family. Rene is the warm-hearted man who saves a twelve year-old girl being sold for sex by her crack-addicted father. Rad/Rene are one and the same person. He's wealthy and street-wise, yet he is there for his friends. He's also in love with Bridgette, but will not commit himself to her until he finishes his vengeance spree. Rene/Rad are fighting to gain control of each other, but which one will rule?
Bridgette is in love with Rene and has been patiently saving herself for him to finally make a commitment to their relationship. When it doesn't happen, she decides to move on to another man who she feels will give her the same love and devotion she craves from Rene. But as the saying goes, be careful what you wish for because things may not be as they seem.
Mr. Prophet produced a novel that is a must read because it touches your heart and soul. This book blew me away because the author consolidated every character's drama skillfully together with a flow that pulled you into each page. He made you respect and understand why Rene/Rad had to make certain choices. The secondary characters added a suspenseful element which included conspiracy, double-crossing, domestic violence, senseless killings and sudden twists and turns. Overall, No Time for Love by Conrad Prophet did exactly what he wanted it to do, kept you on the edge of your seat, made you think, and gave you hope and reasons to look to God for Guidance.
