Reviews

All Isabella Eardley wants to do is paint. When Jean Maillot, Isabella's first choice as a painting teacher, declines the request to tutor the talented miss, Harrison Curzon, Maillot's gifted student (as well as London's most notorious rake), offers his services. The author has a good grasp of the Regency era, though a few incidents in the plot may be far-fetched for some readers. Isabella's aspirations to pursue a career in art, as well as the abuse her mother suffers from her lout of a husband, help underscore the limited amount of power women had at the time. Calvin (The Duke's Desire, Signet, 1996), the winner of RWA's Golden Heart Award in 1993, resides in Oklahoma.
