A diverse and interesting cast. Our heroine struggles with her prejudices and has to work through a lifetime of being disregarded by her family. She trusts nobody and does not want to let anyone in. It takes a man from another country to get through her barriers and show her what it is to be loved. This books is going to be of interest to a diverse group of women. Business women and stay at home moms are all going to be able to relate to this issue. Especially in this era of America trying to come to terms with the equality and diversity of our country and the question of who should and should not be allowed to live here. Perhaps at the end of the day love will conquer all.
