Veil of Tears — Connie Rinehold

HER HEART WAS HEALED BY MAGIC

Julia Devlin's childhood love affair with make-believe ended when her beloved, dream-weaving father was sent to prison for theft. Ever after, Julia dwelled in a world of hard facts -- and cold comfort.

When Alex St. Ives hired Julia as consultant for a proposed art gallery, Julia knew she couldn't trust Alex. Outwardly sophisticated, unconsciously arrogant, impossibly wealthy, Alex couldn't hide a small boy's sense of wonder.

...And Julia feared she'd succumb to the discoveries, the mystery and the magic promised in Alex's eyes. Fantasy had betrayed her once before.

But now her dreams were challenged by a reality as cold as her past, but as beautiful as myths and legends.
