Fiona Clayburn is one lucky girl. Not only does she have a job she loves, working with fine art at Gallery Roche, but she's also managed to catch the eye of one of the most desired bachelors around--Giles, son of the Earl of Bancroft--and they're madly in love. Well, that's what everyone thinks, anyway. Little do they know it's all but a ruse to help the pair achieve their individual dreams and goals. After all, Fiona couldn't have possibly melted the Icy Scion's heart...right? But fake-love pacts aside, the two find themselves saddled with a case to crack when they pay a visit to Giles's godmother, the Marchioness of Heyward, to appraise a painting--only to discover it hides a terrifying secret!
