If you like Victorian romance with a touch of naughty, you may want to take a peep.
Happy Reading!
When the estranged sons of wealthy eccentric Randolph
Blackwood return home for his funeral and discover he has left them a private
collection of three amateur oil paintings, they have no idea how this simple
bequest will change their lives. The
notorious Blackwood brothers are not known for their appreciation of fine art,
but they are familiar with their father's love of elaborate pranks. Yes, the
old man is still laughing at them from beyond the grave. For in order to
collect their share of Randolph's fortune, they must return— in person— the
three scandalous, nude portraits to the women who once posed for him. And that
turns out to be a little more complicated than a simple delivery.
Once they were Randolph Blackwood's muses; now they've moved
on with their lives. Lina is widowed and trying to lead a quiet, harmless life,
while hiding a dark secret about her true desires; Daisy struggles to manage a
respectable hotel against family opposition and overwhelming debt, and Claudine
runs the 'Whitechapel Improvement Committee', a mysteriously busy charity home
for handsome young men, funded by some of the most elegant and unhappily
married ladies of Victorian London.
As the three Blackwood brothers set out to complete their
task, they only have business on their minds and no intention of being
distracted. But their father knew them better than anybody and he chose these
three ladies for a very special reason. The true inheritance this mischief-maker
leaves to his sons is neither the paintings nor his fortune. It is something far
more valuable.
