Description

<p>(Book 1)<br />Betrayed by the woman he loved and on the verge of destitution, artist Jonathan Martinez channels his anguish and rage into what will become his greatest masterpiece—Passion and Betrayal. The painting, critically acclaimed, ushers him into the world of fine art and allows him to realize his dreams. Stepping out of the shadows, he transforms into Phillipe, a wealthy artist and sought-after bachelor who enjoys an extravagant lifestyle—including his pick of any woman he desires.<br /><br />But when Phillipe least expects, the woman who almost destroyed him returns on the arm of his agent. Despite his anger, she awakens the part of his soul he entombed long ago. The part of him that can never forget her, no matter how deeply he buries himself in his art.<br /><br />With everything he's accomplished at stake, can Phillipe overpower the demons that haunt him and learn to love again? Or will his heart remain a shattered work of art that can never be restored?</p>

I really could put myself in the shoes of the heroine. I liked the way you developed her self esteem. Plus Edward sounded very sexy—if you find an extra like him, please send him my way!&quot;</font></p> <p style="margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;" align="right"> <strong><em><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Brenda</span></em></strong></p> <p style="margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;" align="left">  </p> <p style="margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;" align="left"> <font face="Verdana"><strong>&quot;A Big Beautiful Heroine! </strong>Well, I am a big fan of Pat Ballard's work. I love how all her heroines are plus-sized beauties and have great hunks who love them that way. I also love that her heroines have class and style. They are strong women who can handle any situation put before them. <em>(His Brother's Child </em>is) not only a love story, but a story about hope. How it only takes one person who, with loving patience, can give a person the strength to overcome fears and to embrace life. I hope to read many more of Pat's books. Each one is a treat.&quot;</font></p> <p style="margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;" align="right"> <strong><em><span style="font-family:Verdana;">A reader from Albuquerque, NM</span></em></strong></p> <p style="margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;" align="left">  </p> <p style="margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;" align="left"> <font face="Verdana"><strong>&quot;Pat Ballard delivers again! </strong>This book has you wondering about the ending from the first chapter. The book is not what I thought it to be—it is better. Another book by Pat you can't put down. If you don't have the first two, buy all three and settle in for a long, quiet time. Don't forget the wine!&quot;</font></p> <p style="margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;" align="right"> <strong><em><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Paula Johnson from W.P.B., FL</span></em></strong></p> <p style="margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;" align="left">  </p> <p style="margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;" align="left"> <font face="Verdana"><strong>&quot;Once again Ms. Ballard delivers!</strong> Ms. Ballard is proving herself to be the new Romance Queen of the new Millenium. Her new novel, <em>His Brother's Child,</em> heats up from the start and just continues to build that sexual tension until the explosive end. My recommendation is buy the book, find a comfortable place to read and ENJOY because you won't be able to put it down!&quot;</font></p> <p style="margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;" align="right"> <strong><em><span style="font-family:Verdana;">H.
