5.0 out of 5 stars another great story! 13 April 2000
By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback
The charcters, cecily peterson and tate winthrop where good. The fact it was romance and danger made the book very exciting. Tate winthrop was a charcter in her last book once in paris and I was glad to see that she wrote his story with the same passion as she her last book. Well done diana palmer. Cecily over came her past which was not easy and Tate learned more about his than he wanted to but in the end their story is a good and the dialogue is charming!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Book To Read 10 Jan 2006
By wintersbreeze - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I really liked this book. It is one of my favorites by Mrs. Palmer. If you enjoy her stories then you will like this one. It follows typical Palmer format. Angry man, helpless woman, then they end up happily ever after. Although I thought that Cecily was a much stronger woman than Mrs. Palmer usually writes about. I thought that she stuck up for herself right up until the end of the book, meaning she didn't let Tate (the male lead) walk all over her. Tate refused his feelings for Cecily because he is Native American and she is White. There is lots of secrets and action on top of a wonderful romance in this book. I really enjoyed Cecily's friend Colby Lane in this book. At times though, I wished she would marry him instead of pinning away for Tate. There are twists that keep this book interesting.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful love story of two strong people...Read it ! 12 Nov 1999
By Mrs. Jane E. Anderson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I read all that I can of Diana Palmer and "Paper Rose" didn't disappoint me at all.Tate has such sex appeal and Cecily is just the woman that can interest him for a life time. Has me very interested in reading about the other people,Micah Steele and of course Colby Lane.I'll re-read this one over again.Looking forward to reading more of her's.

3.0 out of 5 stars Difficult hero to relate to... 15 Aug 2006
By Tracy Vest - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Archeologist Cecily has loved Tate Winthrop since she was 17 and he rescued her from an abusive stepfather and secretly paid for her college "scholarship." He makes it perfectly clear that there will never be a relationship between them as he is full blooded Lakota and doesn't want to dilute his bloodline. So she pines away for him for the next eight years. When his "girlfriend" Audrey spills the beans about the identity of her benefactor, Cecily goes into a rage at a political fundraiser, and pours a bowl of crab bisque on him, much to the media's glee. She drops out of graduate school and moves into a new apartment to separate herself from his influence, and develops a deeper friendship with his former colleague, Colby Lane, much to Tate's annoyance.

In her new position as the curator of a Native American museum in Washington, Cecily is asked to aid a senator in foiling an illegal gambling operation on the reservation back home. If she doesn't help, it could create a scandal with Tate at the apex. She asks Colby to join her in the investigation, which puts Tate in a rage. He shows up at his mother's house with every intention of finally "taking" her. After some afternoon delight, he wants her to drop everything and move in with him, but she tells him goodbye instead. And Tate manages to leave her with a party favor.

With Colby having retrieved the name of the guys behind the blackmail, they arrive back in Washington, where her covert efforts are for naught, as the blackmailers release the trump card to destroy Senator Matt Holden's career; a secret that could drive a permanent wedge between her and Tate forever. Sensing that there are feelings between Tate and Cecily, Audrey schemes to keep them apart. Will they manage to find their way back to each other? Will Tate's racist attitude keep him from finding real love?

This was my first Palmer novel, and I found myself in the middle of an obvious series. While the storyline was interesting, Tate was a little too "caveman" in his convictions (the whole "bloodline dilution" wore thin after the third chapter); Colby was a more intriguing partner and it would have been interesting to see Tate get his comeuppance and spend the rest of his days with shrew Audrey.
