Portrait of My Love — Emily Elliott

Brains. Was it Amy's fault she had them? The academic world was her oyster, but did every fellowship won have to mean a love lost?

She pictured herself plain -- her future passionless -- until ace photographer Rick Patterson breezed into her life with an offer she couldn't refuse. He'd take the very special pictures Amy needed to finish her book if she'd be his summer assistant. Swept into the madcap world of his commercial studio, Amy was the novice, Rick the master. Quick, creative, all too sure of his own talents, he didn't stop to question hers. And suddenly Amy found a new picture of herself emerging the picture of a brainy, beautiful, desirable woman all too passionately -- and dangerously -- in love.
