Nora Roberts #27: Art of Deception

By Nora Roberts

Book Overview

Adam Haines was an artist visiting the Fairchild mansion to do some undercover digging, and that was a problem for a man who preferred to be straightforward. An even bigger problem was Kirby Fairchild, daughter of the world-famous painter he'd been sent to investigate. She was part child, part elf, and the most fascinating woman he'd ever encountered. However, Kirby had a disconcertingly fluid sense of right and wrong -- one completely at odds with Adam's own code of ethics. Adam wished he wasn't wrapped quite so tightly around her little finger . . .

Sensational

Overall, it is a pretty good story. Adam learns many important things from Kirby about life and love, and Kirby learns that those close to her are not what they seem to be.The back cover's blurb reads:Who had the missing painting?Adam Haines was visiting the Fairchild mansion under false pretenses and, although he'd worked undercover before, he didn't enjoy it. He preferred to be straightforward, but you didn't catch many thieves that way. Moreover, Adam also wouldn't be able to make love to his chief suspect's fascinating daughter if he told her he was investigating her father!Kirby had a disturbing fluid sense of right and wrong--one completely at odds with Adam's own code of ethics. But he knew she would see his deception as betrayal. What would it take for her to forgive him?
