Shutter — Rhonda Laurel

Photographer Antonio De Soto's life is out of focus. Everyone in his family thinks it's time for him to settle down. He doesn't want to be strong-armed into domesticity, even if he does feel the bachelor lifestyle is starting to wear thin. So when his friend invites him to do a pictorial on the community theater, Antonio's prepared to do his thing and follow his normal womanizing M. O. Instead, he finds himself sparring with the resident artist, Lucy Marceloni. Lucy's dime-store analysis of his love life -- and him -- leaves him angry and shaken, but it's too close to the truth to dismiss. The quirky artist is not his type, but their passionate fights generate a deeper heat between them he can't ignore…

Lucy wants a man who's sensitive and intellectual, the exact opposite of Antonio De Soto. The moment she meets the handsome photographer she pegs him as arrogant and self-centered, but that doesn't protect her from the sizzling chemistry between the two of them. Being drawn to the rogue's charm and subtle seduction tactics is the last thing she wants. Working with him on the community theater fairytale production could prove to be more than she can handle...
