A woman who has made her way in society without family or fortune, Lena is about to realize her first big success as an artist…until her business partner makes off with her money, leaving her with little more than her hopes - and a dead body in her studio. Now Lena is at the mercy of a strikingly handsome stranger demanding answers she dare not reveal….

Is it her seductive eyes or his suspicion that she’s up to no good that has Clive Somerville shadowing Lena’s every move? Either way, his secret investigation for the Home Office has him determined to uncover Lena’s hidden agenda. But the closer he gets to her, the more he longs to be her protector. Is she a victim of circumstance? Or a dark force in a conspiracy that could destroy everything Clive holds dear? Discovering the truth could have dire consequences - not only for Lena but also for his heart.

Publishers Weekly…
The suspenseful fourth in Miles’s Muses’ Salon series captivates with clever prose and an unconventional heroine. In 1820 London, painter Lena Frost drifts on the fringes of society due to her checkered past, but she hopes that her upcoming exhibition will catapult her into artistic fame. Her hopes are dashed when her business partner disappears with all of their money. Then several people, all with some connection to Lena, are murdered. Enter Clive Somerville, who is the younger brother of a duke and is a surgeon who serves among the Home Office’s investigative ranks. His inquiries into the rash of killings lead him straight to Lena’s doorstep. His fascination with Lena blurs the lines between suspicion and desire, and his urge to question her quickly transforms into a need to protect her. The only flaw in this intricately crafted historical romance is the unbelievable speed at which the connection between the protagonists develops. ”

“…. Author Miles continues her smart, intriguing Muses Salon series with another bright, accomplished heroine who fights for her happiness with an unexpected perfect match. A unique storyline, a dose of suspense, and a circle of intelligent female friends enhance a successful romance.” …Kirkus Review
