Love is an Art by Kathy Strobos

5.0

Allow me to introduce you to Tessa, a diligent corporate lawyer whose compassionate nature knows no bounds. She's always ready to lend a helping hand to those in need. Then there's Zeke, another hardworking corporate lawyer, but he carries a heavy burden—he's developed an intense aversion to female lawyers due to a painful betrayal by his lawyer girlfriend.

When Tessa learns that a dear artist friend of hers has been conned out of thousands of dollars by a cunning scam artist who preys on creative souls, she's fueled by righteous anger. Determined to bring this con artist to justice, she hatches a bold plan. Tessa disguises herself as a painter and infiltrates an art gallery, hoping to catch the scammer in the act. There's just one tiny snag—Tessa possesses not one artistic bone in her body. Can she pull off her scheme without arousing the con man's suspicion?

Meanwhile, Zeke happens to be at the same art gallery and crosses paths with Tessa, whom he believes to be a struggling artist. Instantly, sparks fly between them, and their chemistry is impossible to deny. However, as Tessa delves deeper into their connection, she uncovers Zeke's deep-seated aversion to lawyers and his profound trust issues stemming from a past relationship.

Now, Tessa faces her most daunting challenge yet: how to reveal the true purpose of her artistic deception, which was rooted in helping her friend, and the fact that she is, in reality, a lawyer. The real question is, can she win Zeke's trust and heart despite the web of deceit that initially brought them together?

The author of this enthralling tale possesses an unparalleled gift for storytelling. Her narratives are a tapestry of distinctive plots and unforgettable characters, capable of captivating your attention from the very first page right through to the exhilarating finish.
