An Artist's Kiss — Suzy Shearer

Isabella Price, 50, left the nude modelling world years ago, but Gabriel Milford, 47, needs a rubenesque, older woman to pose for him. Determined to win her over, Gabriel does it the wrong way--he attempts blackmail, then forces his attentions on her. It is only when she tries to sneak into his property that she finally agrees. Isabella has had a secret since she was 19, a secret she has only shared with one other person, who treated her like she had the plague when she confessed it. Since then, she considers herself perverted, sick, and tries to forget. Now she has met the one man who makes her dark desires clamor to be free--desires that Gabriel is only too willing to satisfy--and she is running scared. Can Gabriel convince her that she isn't perverted? Will she finally accept who she is, or will she continue to shun happiness the way she has for all these years?
