Vera Custodio has never fallen in love, though she has strong feelings for her friend and sometimes lover, Zach Spencer. Long-forgotten memories resurface when Vera discovers Zach’s mother was the woman her father supposedly murdered many years ago.

After losing his leg, former triathlete Zach Spencer reevaluates his life—and realizes he’s falling in love with Vera. When she ends their relationship, Zach is determined to prove his love and follows her to Australia in search of the killer.

Caught between a web of family secrets and a deranged adversary, Vera and Zach must depend on each other for survival. Love blossoms, but the truth explodes everything Vera knows about herself. Will she close her heart forever or risk it all for a shot at happily-ever-after?

Knowing Vera is a suspenseful, cross-cultural romance mixing an unsolved murder, action and adventure, and hot, steamy love scenes.

Review ~

Knowing Vera is a different story for me.  It is hard to rate this one.  Once started, I wanted to see what was going to happen so I thought it would end up with a high rating, but by the middle I was getting frustrated with the characters and the plot so it dropped a little.  I'd probably have to give it a 3.5 out of 5.

Knowing Vera is worth reading.  It has a little bit of everything in it from suspense, to sweet romance, to some bordering on erotic moments, to a little mystery, lots of angst and anger and more.  So every emotion is touched but maybe it was just a little too much of everything all at once.

Overall, I did enjoy it and would recommend it if you are looking for multi-cultural romantic suspense to add to your reading list.
