description: THEA'S LOVE LIFE IS A MESS...
  Life as a globetrotting photojournalist had its moments Thea Orville--until a shifty scheme by her boyfriend ruined her career. For Thea, giving the boot to her man feels good. Selling her London flat to open a rooming house feels better--at first. Then reality sets in ... and thirty-something Thea realizes she's a bit young to be a house matron. What she needs is a little diversion...
  
  ...UNTIL A SEXY STRANGER COMES ALONG...
  On a lark, Thea accepts her friend's offer to go to France an art tour. A little wine, a little Cezanne--what could be better? For starters, meeting a devilishly handsome artist nary Rory. Somehow, Thea lets Rory convince her to stay with until she sorts things out. But when Thea sees Rory's paintings, everything suddenly makes sense.
  
  ...AND MAKES CLEANING UP A PLEASURE...
  Thea knows that bringing Rory's spectacular paintings into London's art world would be just the challenge she's look for. So where does that leave her love life? Well, romance has a funny way of working itself out ... just when--and how--you least expect it....
