Anne Bartonin viihderomaanisarjan toisessa osassa jäljitetään kadonnutta maalausta ja juonitellaan reippaasti: Once she was tempted (Forever, 2013; ISBN 978-1-4555-1330-7).
Barton kirjoittaa sujuvasti, ja vaikka erityisen omaperäiseksi juonenkulkua ei voikaan kehua, kaikessa keveydessään siinä oli myös jonkin verran huumoria ja leikittelyä rooleilla.
The risqué painting owned by Benjamin Elliot, the earl of Foxburn, features a stunning beauty with sapphire eyes, golden hair, and creamy skin. Ben recognizes this particular English rose the instant he meets her—though she's wearing considerably more clothing. In person, the demure debutante is even more irresistible.
In desperate need of money for her sick mother, Daphne Honeycote had posed for two scandalous portraits. Now she must hide her secret to save the Honeycote family name. Ben's possession of one painting makes him an insufferable thorn in her side—and yet he may be her best chance at finding the canvas's companion. As she becomes drawn to the dark-tempered earl, can Daphne risk laying bare the secrets of her heart?
