I really enjoyed this book! One of Ms. Palmer's better ones!
Archaeologist Cecily Petersen has loved Tate Winthrop since she was a teen, but the handsome Native American refuses to consider a mixed marriage. Instead, he becomes her white knight, protecting her from an abusive stepfather and arranging college grants and housing. But when Cecily discovers that the "grants" were actually outright gifts from Tate, she's furious. Her anger shifts their relationship from friends to lovers and forces them both to confront deeply held convictions and fears. When Cecily learns of a political scandal that could threaten Tate, she's determined to shield him, even though she knows it's likely that he'll never forgive her for the necessary deception.
Loved it. The difference in cultures as seen from anothers eyes creates a great story.
Compellingly handsome Tate Winthrop once boldly came to Cecily Blake's rescue. Her devotion to him knew no bounds, but since the fiercely proud Native American refused to consider a mixed marriage, their passion remained unfulfilled. Shattered by Tate's rejection, Cecily had been forced to leave the man of her dreams.
Now she was back and destined to win.
But when Tate becomes caught in the middle of a shocking political scandal, she realizes they need each other now, more than ever. And this time it is Cecily, a woman embarking on a brilliant career, who comes to his rescue and attempts to shield the man she loves from a devastating secret that could destroy his life.
Diana's intrigue and romance will keep you turning pages!

With political scandal in D.C., nefarious shenanigans on the reservation, and sizzling passion between the hero and heroine, Paper Rose kept you eager to read more. It was very well written .
Her love for him was like a paper rose, which longed for the magic to make it real.

Tate Winthrop and Cecily Blake are great characters
Another great Diana Palmer read.
I haven't read this one, but it has been sitting on my shelf.

Very good romantic story!
Great read!!

I've read several books by Diana Palmer but this one is by far my favorite. It's the type of story I LOVE - a girl who's crazy in love with her best friend. And it's all about what they go through to be together. If you've never read this one, it is a MUST read. You'll love it.
Im not a reader of this author,therefore this book is like new.
