Her impeccable research, attention to details, well-developed plots, and memorable characters are what brings me back to her novels over and over. It doesn\u2019t hurt that each book also usually includes a believable romance as well as a bit of danger and suspense mixed into the narrative.<\/p>\n<p><em>Knowing You<\/em> met my every expectation. The final book of the Pictures of the Heart series, it features May Parker whose mixed Japanese-American heritage has plagued her for her entire life. She never felt a part of either world and usually escaped into her art. While working as a camera girl at the \u00a0Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition in 1909 Seattle, May is reunited with her childhood defender Lee Munro, a police detective working the exposition. As they spend time together, they realize that they care for each other but they have more than one hurdle to overcome if they are to have a life together.<\/p>\n<p>An art forger provides the danger and suspense in Knowing You as Lee and May work together to prevent the theft of a Japanese samurai armor that is on display. Their faith is put to the test as they attempt to catch the thieves plus overcome the extreme racism of Lee\u2019s family.<\/p>\n<p>Another wonderful book by one of my must read authors, <em>Knowing You<\/em> is well worth your time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book provided by JustReads Publicity.
