The Second in an Outstanding Series

In THE DOCUMENT, romance writer Cara Bentley has just discovered her recently-deceased grandfather's adoption papers and decides to search for his biological family - a search which brings her to Lancaster Co., PA where she rents the rooms recently vacated by Kristie Matthews. The attorney she employs to assist her in her search? Kristie's ex-boyfriend Todd. It's soon apparent Cara and Todd are much more suited than Kristie and Todd were. But there's someone who doesn't want Cara to find her grandfather's family.The author gives insights into Amish culture including several traditions which are hard for the English (anyone not Amish) to understand. THE DOCUMENT is doubly enjoyable as its romance-writer heroine talks about the respectability of romance and even mentions having more difficulty chosing what books to take on a trip than what clothes to pack, something many romance readers can certainly identify with! THE DOCUMENT also will appeal to readers who share an interest in family history and/or adoption search. This is an outstanding series with a wide appeal. Thank you, Ms. Roper!

Utterly charming!

Gayle Roper is a master of witty dialogue. The repartee between the feisty Cara Bentley and her attorney, Todd Reasoner, is electric and utterly charming. Can't wait to read the other books in Roper's series set in Amish country.
