      A PICTURE-PERFECT CRIME

      Princess Lara Kincade returned home to New Orleans to continue her late husband’s humanitarian work. She also hopes to force his killer out of hiding. But a priceless painting has put her plans—and life—at risk. Embroiled in a deadly art scandal, Lara must depend on handsome photojournalist Gabriel Murdock to help her expose a murderer. Gabriel’s determination to keep her safe has softened her heart to love’s possibilities again. Somewhere among his photos lies the identity of the murderer, but can they uncover the killer before this heist turns deadly?

      “You’ve got me right where you want me, Princess.

      And you know I can’t walk away.”

      “You mean, not without your story?”

      Gabriel got up and came around the table, then lifted her out of her chair. “No, Princess, I can’t leave because of you.”

      He saw a new kind of fear in her eyes. A fear of having loved and lost. “I don’t know what you mean.”

      He tugged her close. “Yes, you do. You’re a smart woman. Surely you can see it?”

      She lowered her gaze. “See what?”

      “This,” he said, his fingers lifting her chin. “This, Lara.”
