Mary Taylor abandoned her silk gowns and sparkling jewels when she quit her position as one of London's highly prized courtesans. She's determined to earn her living with a paintbrush rather than between the sheets. Starting fresh in a new country, she masquerades as a widow running a tearoom in Halifax while perfecting her art. But when she's hired to finish the portrait of a handsome judge, she risks everything by surrendering to her lustful craving. Finton Morash, youngest judge on the Queen's bench, believes people are either good or bad. The dowdy widow painting his portrait is surely one of the former. After discovering the sensual beauty hiding beneath shapeless gowns, he wonders at her other secrets. When whispers circulate about Mary's nefarious past, she must find the courage to face the consequences. And Finton must decide whether love is worth the risk.
