The first book I read caught my attention because it was pretty clear that it was going to be about a woman that found her daughter she had given up for adoption and I was curious about the topic. My Aunt Sharon searched for her birth son and has been reunited for several years so I thought it would be an interesting read. The other plot line involves her first love and the father of the baby - I won't say more :)
I think the cover art on this book is completely wrong. Maybe there's a beach scene because it's summer reading? This book is also about adoption - and a mystery surrounding a photograph taken when the woman was a child - and also a romance! But I don't recall any scene in the book being set at a beach - although they are from California. So anyway don't judge this book by it's cover.
This is the description of the book from GoodReads:
"While preparing for her wedding, Julia DeMarco comes across a famous photograph of a little girl in front of a Russian orphanage-and sees her own eyes staring back at her. But Julia is not an orphan, nor was she adopted. She knows where she comes from-or does she? Suddenly, the people she has loved and trusted are tainted by suspicion. The one person who is willing to help her is reckless photographer Alex Manning, who will journey with her toward the dangerous truth-while trying to hide a secret of his own."
Doesn't that sound like an interesting plot? I liked it and thought it was perfect summer romance / suspense plus the adoption plot made for my weekly theme.
