About the book
Verona had met Stephen Best in Paris as a fellow student, he was the most brilliant young artist in London, and she loved him madly. His portrait of her was magnificent, capturing her large, lustrous eyes and creamy skin. Though their love was true, Verona refused to be Stephen's mistress and left him to marry a young army officer. She tried to be happy there, but soon she found herself longing for the bohemian life of her former days and, when her husband was stationed in Egypt, began to wonder what would happen if, just by chance, she should run into Stephen again. And when illness struck her, Verona was rushed back to England to recuperate. There she saw her beloved Stephen again--in the most fateful, climactic moment of her life!
