But now, living in a small Scottish cottage on the estate of Glengarrow, she has not painted a portrait in ages.

And now, with the return of the Earl of Linnet to his ancestral home, her hopes of peace have disappeared.From the first moment he encountered Margaret on his land, the Earl of Linnet was nothing but annoyed.
