I really enjoyed Paper Roses. I found the plot moved along well and I liked the lead characters.

From thereon I skimmed to make sure I'd figured the culprits righ...

The cover gives you the impression that this is just another Christian Fiction romance with a bit of mystery thrown in. That is was my impression and boy was I wrong! The main mystery is evident from the start and I usually can figure things out before the end. With this I had absolutely no clue and...
