Priceless paintings...

Done in a master's hand...

Revealed two centuries after they were created...

A collection of paintings has complicated Lord Rothvale's life in ways he could never imagine. Actually, make that a beautiful art specialist from the University of London responsible for the complications in his life.

He's sure about one thing though. Before Gabrielle Hargreave blew back into his sights on a stormy summer night, he never felt this good. She's turned his world upside down, along with his wounded heart.

But Gabrielle is sporting a wounded heart of her own, and she's terrified of risking it again on someone like Ivan. Will he hurt her as others have done? Or is Ivan Everley more than just commanding male beauty in a lordly package?

He will tell you he is, and knows how to keep his head in the game when it matters. Yet the truth is clouded for these two and there is trouble afoot... as well as an artfully intriguing mystery.

But Ivan is certain about one thing. He has identified his target and is determined to take the win—making Gabrielle his one and only Lady Rothvale...

A love beyond any price...

Lives intertwined over the ages...

Discoveries of the heart and of treasures hidden away...
