Scraps of Evidence by Barbara Cameron

I have only seen the Amish side of Barbara Cameron, so I was definitely looking forward to seeing a different side of her writing.  Having read many books in the Quilts of Love series, I couldn't pass this one up.  It was a book that had me drawn in from the first pages of the book. Barbara Cameron writes in such a way that easily can go from genre to genre.

I personally think I liked the book so much because I love vacationing in the city where the book takes place.  It was easy to remember the area in this book and took me back to a relaxing summer vacation and our upcoming one!  St. Augustine is so rich of history and beauty and one just can't help but enjoy it!

Since I'm not much into mystery novels, this was perfect for me.  It wasn't too scary and it didn't keep me up at night from bad dreams!  I liked the romance and how it depicted real-life relationships.  You never forget that a serial killer is involved, but it's not a terrifying book.  Some may be disappointed in that, but I was grateful!

Now I'm switching over to read her new Amish fiction book that is coming out!  You can find out what others thought about his book by going to http://litfusegroup.com/campaigns/scraps-of-evidence-barbara-cameron.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

A Word from the author:
CBD, CBA, and ECPA bestselling author of 35 books (including new series upcoming for Abingdon Press in 2011/2012) including fiction and non-fiction books for Abingdon Press, Thomas Nelson, Harlequin, and other publishers.

I sold three films to HBO/Cinemax and am the first winner of the Romance Writers of America Golden Heart Award.

My two novellas won the 2nd and 3rd place in the Inspirational Readers Choice Contest from the Faith, Love, and Hope chapter of RWA. Both were finalists for the novella category of the Carol Award of the American Christian Writers Award (ACFW).

ABOUT THE BOOK
Tess has taken some ribbing from her fellow officer, Logan, for her quilting hobby. He finds it hard to align the brisk professional officer he patrols with during the day with the one who quilts in her off-time. Besides, he’s been trying to get to know her better and he’d like to be seeing her during those few nights a week she spends with her quilting guild. Then one afternoon Tess and Logan visit her aunt in the nursing home, and the woman acts agitated when Tess covers her with the story quilt. Aunt Susan is attempting to communicate a message to them about Tess’s uncle. There’s a story behind this quilt, they realize, one that may lead them to a serial killer. Will they have a chance to have a future together, or will the killer choose Tess for his next victim before they find him?

A Road Unknown by Barbara Cameron

A Road Unknown, Amish Roads Series #1   -     By: Barbara Cameron
I like everything about this book, from the cover to the story to the way the words are formatted within the book and the type of font used.

I had difficulty putting this book down because I enjoyed the story so much!  Saul was such a sweetheart and you can't help but like Elizabeth and Paula.  The book doesn't have a lot of drama or twists but it is still a book that keeps you engaged and excited about the story.

My favorite part was probably how Saul and Elizabeth met on the bus.  I did get a good laugh at Saul and his ego! Although I have a hard time thinking he has one after getting to know him.  I struggled with Elizabeth's grandma. I do wish there had been a little more of the story between them upon Elizabeth's return.  I kind of wanted her to soften some and admit she was being mean.

I'm looking forward to this series very much!  I can't wait to see where Barbara Cameron goes with this series.  Read what others thought about this book by going to http://litfusegroup.com/author/BCameron.

Book 1 in the new Amish Roads series
Elizabeth is at a crossroad. She’s been given the chance to experience life outside of her community, away from the responsibility to care for her eight younger siblings, but Elizabeth Bontrager can’t decide which road to take. Goshen has its charms and pressures, but Paradise, Pennsylvania, sounds . . . well, like paradise. And it’s also home to her Englisch friend, Paula. Decision made. Elizabeth is Paradise bound.
But will the small town live up to its name? When Elizabeth meets Paula’s friend, Bruce, she quickly learns he wants more than a friendship. And the same might be true of Saul Miller, her new boss at the country story that sells Amish products to the Englisch community. As the two compete for her attention, Elizabeth is surprised to realize she misses her family and becomes even more uncertain about where she belongs. She has a choice to make: return home or embrace this new life and possibly a new love?
