A Mirror Over Star. Ruby Red Hourglass Club, #3

Star is a troubled and self-conscious young woman with an overbearing mother. A deathbed promise to her father binds her to the old family tradition of an arranged marriage. The problem is, Star wants freedom to forge her own way. She is therefore resigned to a life of misery. Star is painted as something she is not. But a photographer sees something under all that frill that her mother doesn't-natural beauty and a complex soul.
Pierce also sees a darkness he hopes will match his own. The two start a secret affair that gets increasingly rough, in a steamy delicious way that Star never even imagined. But why would she? After all, this is her first affair. Ever. As an artist and a dominant man, Pierce provides Star with an alarming introduction to sex that will turn her life upside down forever.
