author: Hargrove, A.M.
description: ** This is a New Adult Contemporary Romance intended for MATURE audiences and not for younger readers. Riviera Benson has a talent...one she discovered by accident. Sheâ€™s a painter, but canvas isnâ€™t her medium. She creates her lovely masterpieces on walls and ceilings of million dollar homes as murals and faux finishes. Her art is in high demand now, but life wasnâ€™t always that way. Riviera has secrets from her past she intends to keep tightly locked away...terrifying secrets that keep her awake at night...that prevent her from getting close to anyone...anyone that is, until she meets Shan. Benjamin Shandon, owner of Shandon Homes, works like a thousand demons are chasing him...because perhaps they are. His business has boomed, ever since the forest fire swept through the canyon and destroyed hundreds of million dollar homes. He demands excellence in everything...from his employees to his women. He slows down for nothing, keeping a schedule that no sane person would want. But Riviera interrupts everything, twisting his guts inside out, and wedging her way into his heart, destroying a promise he made to himself. Will they let their pasts control their future, or will they decide to let go and allow their hearts to discover each otherâ€™s?
