It will keep readers waiting at the edge of their seats for the next clue and next kiss as they fall for the charming power of love stories and the creative passion of the characters.

Danielle Parker charms in this honest and disarmingly witty portrayal of a young writer exploring first love, undying friendship, and complicated family dynamics. A tender romance wrapped in a compelling mystery, Love on Paper is a testament to the power of storytelling and an ode to love in all its forms.
