About this ebook

This sexy regency romance is perfect for fans of Elizabeth Hoyt and Sarah MacLean!

"Anne Barton is a delightful new voice in historical romance!" —Tessa Dare, New York Times bestselling author of The Duchess Deal

The risque painting owned by Benjamin Elliot, the earl of Foxburn, features a stunning beauty with sapphire eyes, golden hair, and creamy skin. Ben recognizes this particular English rose the instant he meets her-though she's wearing considerably more clothing. In person, the demure debutante is even more irresistible ...

In desperate need of money for her sick mother, Daphne Honeycote had posed for two scandalous portraits. Now she must hide her secret to save the Honeycote family name. Ben's possession of one painting makes him an insufferable thorn in her side-and yet he may be her best chance at finding the canvas's companion. As she becomes drawn to the dark-tempered earl, can Daphne risk laying bare the secrets of her heart?

At first I was a little hesitant to buy because I have a rule of only buying books that are 6.99 or lower unless it's something I've been dying to read. I stumbled upon this on GoodReads, and it was in my to reads list for about a month. Finally I caved and bought it, and I am so thankful I did. There were parts I was laughing til I was crying and parts where I just cried. It was definitely more than I expected and if your hesitating to buy. I would, really you won't regret it 😃
