Sarah Sterling travels from London to Donmore Hall in Northumberland to clean and restore a priceless art collection for Matthew Donaldson (the new heir at Donmore Hall). One day, when Sarah is looking at the paintings she discovers that some of the paintings aren’t the originals and may be forged to look like the real thing---someone may be substituting paintings/copies for the original works of art. Sarah and Matthew try to figure out who could be responsible for this. Then an attempt is made on Sarah’s life…

This was a very sweet romance with a lovely main couple and a little suspense. Matthew was a great hero. I liked how kind he was to the little girl when they took a trip to Hadrian’s Wall. He was charming, likable and show more handsome. Sarah was a good heroine. She was nice, sweet, but also gutsy at times. There was even an enjoyable secondary romance.

A highly entertaining and romantic read!
