Love is blind, but fate sees everything
The Girl in the Painting, an all-new standalone romance from New York Times bestselling author Max Monroe, is available now!
Ansel Bray, an artist known around the world for his tragic hiatus from the canvas.
Ansel Bray, a broody, handsome man not known by me, at all.
Long dark hair, blue eyes, and dimpled cheeks. I’ve never met her, but her image is imprinted in my mind. An angel muse who inspires me to paint again.
There is something about him. Something that spurs a need to be as close to him as possible. A need to find out why.
There is something about her. Something that draws me in. Something that urges me to find out what her presence means.
Why does the girl in his painting look so much like me?
Who is this girl, and why can I see her so vividly?
I shouldn’t fall in love with him.
I shouldn’t fall in love at all.
But fate plays her hand.
But fate has other plans.
The lines of my life will blur.
The needs of my heart will change.
What a beautiful mess we’ve made.

My review
This is a different story from Max Monroe. Unlike many of their other releases, this one is a bit more emotional, with characters that are broken in their own way.
Ansel, a painter who loses, then regains his sight, is broody and cynical most of the time. Indy, a former musician currently teaching music, is going through the motions of life without really being invested, especially with her current relationship.
The two cross paths when Ansel paints a woman that he cannot get out of his head, and Indy attends a gallery showing of Ansel's new work to appease her sister. The two are connected, and form a relationship between them that leads to discovery of their true connection.
I've read other reviews with readers upset at the "cheating" but I didn't see the heroine as a part of a relationship since she was distant and alone most of the time. Others obviously feel differently.
While I enjoyed the story, some of it is a bit far fetched to be believed. I guess that's the point of fiction, right?
