<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

Reviews

<em>Read it as a thriller or a political wakeup call, either way you will have a most enjoyable presidential campaign -- perhaps better than the real thing.&quot; - </em>Nicky Rossiter, Rambles.net (Ireland)<br /><br /><em>Rare is a time that one receives a book from a small publisher that is this good. From the writing to the actual presentation, everything is first class. - </em>Andrew Ian Dodge, All News Book Reviews<br /><br /><em>&quot;An Eagle Unchained&quot; is a deftly written account of America falling into a dystopia - and that there is still potential for them to recover even at it's worse, as an optimistic turn of events. A top pick for fiction libraries everywhere.&quot;</em> - Midwest Book Review<br /><br /><em>this is a great story and is well written. I recommend it.&quot; </em>- S.
