The Painted Lady

A DESPERATE BEAUTY TRAPPED BY FATE

Sadness shadowed Fleur Brook's lovely, famous face. Because of her young husband's success as a painter, all of Paris and London's beau monde recognized the proud, dark-haired woman who had not only been his wife but his most inspiring model. Few knew the secrets behind his untimely death and the terrible betrayal that had left Fleur without a penny and with a heart she felt had turned to stone.

A DARKLY BROODING NOBLEMAN ENSNARED BY PASSION

Reserved and understatedly elegant, Sir Anthony Camwell could not have been more different from the exuberant Frederick Brooks — except in his captivation by the exquisite Fleur. Now, newly widowed, she had reluctantly accepted Sir Anthony's proposal of marriage, although she remained indifferent to his touch ... not noticing the flame that burned behind his cool gray eyes.

A BARGAIN BORN OF DESIRE

Amid the lavish surroundings of the Camwell ancestral estate he was fire, but she was unmelting ice. Then he made his stunning offer: her freedom and a fortune to live on if she agreed to his terms — five nights of unquestioning, unrestrained surrender to what he planned to teach her ... the exquisite art of love.
