The Artist's Quest, By LaJoyce Martin

The portrait that Dorrie paints of her grandmother, Martha Harris, kindles a restlessness within her to find her roots. Thus, Williams adopted daughter leaves her parents, her brother, and the man who loves her to begin a quest that seems doomed to failure. Winding its way through injustice, rejection, and perfidy, Dorrie's path leads her to a ranch where she faces her most challenging assignment-and realizes her greatest victory. You'll love the conclusion!
