Knowing You (Pictures of the Heart, #3) by Tracie Peterson

 

Budding artist May Parker is captivated by the Japanese exhibits at the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition and longs to know more about her mother's heritage--which her mother refuses to speak of because of the heartache she left behind in Japan. Wanting to experience more of the exhibits, May works as a Camera Girl--but her curiosity leads her into danger when a suit of samurai armor becomes the target of an elusive art forger.

After ten years apart, May is reunited with her childhood friend Lee Munro, a police detective assigned to keep a watchful eye on the exposition. Their friendship immediately begins to blossom with hints of something more, but when they become entangled in a dangerous heist involving the samurai armor and their love is threatened, can they overcome the odds against them?

My Review

 This is the third book in this series that I have read, and enjoyed! This one did not disappoint!

We are back with the camera girls and we are updated on past characters, and the baby!

This is May's story's a young woman of mixed heritage, her mother is Japanese. May is a gifted artist and shares her gifts with others, but is so wanting to learn her mothers country and all that goes with that, including food and language, but it seems to be very painful for her mother to tell anything!

May does become reunited with her childhood friend Lee, and in this book he does become more than a friend, but they are met head on by prejudice!

This read give a lot, master art forgers, greed, sweet romance, hate, along with those with big hearts that go above and beyond for those less fortunate. Such a great read, and I'm sad to leave!

I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Bethany House, and was not required to give a positive review.
