Publisher's Synopsis
For Michael Yuma, a struggling young painter, an upcoming one-man show of his work is the single most important event in his life. This is what he has worked for, hoped for, and dreamed of, and nothing and no one can distract him from it-not even the young woman who so fortuitously stumbled into his world.
An unsuccessful painter herself, heiress Eliza Marshall discovers that the next best thing to being an artist is to be the artist's model, his muse, his strongest supporter, and his object of affection. To assume this role, however, involves lies of omission and deception which she rationalizes by convincing herself that nothing is more important than the paintings. When love is thrown into the mix, Eliza's carefully constructed world of half-truths collapses, threatening all she holds dear.
Only time will tell whether her love of art, and her love for Michael, will be enough to overcome what was said and done.
