Summary: Very Intriging!
Review: This was a very intriguing read. However, not my favorite Nora Roberts book it was interesting and kept you attention with the vivid and realistic characters she creates.Dr. Miranda Jones is a specialist in Renaissance Art and is called to Italy by her mother to authenticate a bronze statue called "The Dark Lady", thought to have been created by Michelangelo. Dr. Jones loves her work. She is one of the Jones's from Jones Point. Her work involves artwork, not prints or copies but the original artwork. Arriving home after a lecture she is deeply disturbed when someone steals her bags and slashes her tires. After verifying that the statue is indeed authentic, Dr. Jones is blamed for a media leak and is sent back to Maine. Someone else does tests to see if the bronze is real and it leaks out that it is a fake. Dr. Jones reputation comes into question and she denies that it's a fake. Her brother, Andrew stands by her as she has stood by him time and time again. One day she goes to his office and meets the smooth, dark, handsome Ryan Boldari from Boldari Gallery. Right from the moment they meet unwanted sparks fly.
Later on a bronze is stolen, what Dr. Jones discovers about her smooth Ryan will shock her and lure her in deeper than she ever wanted to go, but something secretly inside her desires things she thinks she won't ever be able to have. As Dr. Jones and Ryan track the true bronze, they quickly find themselves in serious jeopardy from an unknown killer determined to hide "The Dark Lady" and destroy Dr. Jones' reputation at any cost. But Dr. Jones and Ryan are not deterred and work together to recover the bronze and redeem Dr. Jones credibility. This book was full of surprises, mystery, romance, and daring adventure as all Nora Roberts books are.
