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>
Story Behind The Book
Writing "Royal Rebel" cheered me during a difficult period of life, caring for my failing father. The fun and adventure of Robin and Simon's romance lightened my spirits and brightened my days. I hope my readers find it equally as enjoyable.
Reviews
<strong>From Amazon Customers</strong>:<br /><br /><strong>Casey S</strong>.<br /><div style="margin-top:5px;">I really enjoyed this book (2nd I've read from Ms Taylor) and once again she had me laughing so hard I cried! It was a nice face paced book that I didn't want to put down until I finished! I loved the Robin Hood twist and was happy to see the characters I knew from Robin Hood in Princess Robin in a different light.<br /> <br /><strong>From Adrienne Prince</strong>:<br />I have read several of Dana Taylor's books and enjoyed them all. She always has a fresh voice and a way of seeing things that is mythic, yet also immediate and insightful... She deftly weaves a tight and consistent plot line right along with the emotional and even spiritual insights of the characters. <br /><br />The erotic scenes are portrayed with humor, romance and real understanding of intimacy, esp from a woman's point of view. Excellent job, overall! <br /><br />The book was generously long, but I was still sad when it was over. <br /></div>
