No Strings — Diana Dixon

Allana was an artist who specialized in portraits, and it was the sketch she did of Christian Royan that brought them together.

Christian was used to women who put a price on everything, and he was unable to believe that she offered her love freely. More than that, it looked to him as if her only intention was to defraud him. With his pride at stake, he began to guard his heart even more carefully, but he couldn't guard against the most powerful force of all: the deceptively fragile strings that draw two lovers close.
