Book Description

As a little girl, Rayne wanted to be an artist like her famous father, John Gilford. She intended to paint while traveling the world, stopping to see the works of masters along the way. But after her mother dies, Rayne’s dreams are dashed. Her father, heartbroken and without his muse, loses his will to paint, leaving Rayne to care for his broken soul.

Maxwell Clark, Duke of Wakeshire, had lived his own tragedy. Hardened to the world, the young widower swears to never love again. He would marry one day, but only to father an heir. He had had enough heartbreak.

Paths cross when the Duke calls on the elusive John Gilford to paint his portrait. Knowing her father cannot and eviction hanging over their heads, Rayne devises a desperate plan. She would paint the surly Duke while her father pretends. But when their fraud is discovered, Max lashes out as only a man deceived in the past would. Despite his growing feelings for Rayne, the Gilford are sent away. What follows is an emotional awakening that neither Rayne nor Max could have predicted.
