title: A Midnight Clear
author:  Kristi Astor 
description: Troy Davenport can scarcely believe his luck. A few weeks earlier, while sailing on the RMS Mauretania, he ran into a woman on the moonlit deck of the ship. Troy simply had to paint her, but before he could find anything out about his subject, the lady vanished. Now here in the society pages of a London newspaper is a photo of his mystery lady: Miranda Granger. According to the article, Miranda will be celebrating the holiday season at the Grandview Hotel with her family. This, of course, means Troy will now be vacationing at the same resort. Once Troy arrives, though, he discovers Miranda is less than thrilled with his company, and if he is to have any hope of capturing her on canvas, he will have to find a way to win her trust. Astor, a pseudonym for author Kristina Cook, delivers an elegantly written, richly sensual historical romance with a fascinating, refreshingly different Edwardian setting. --John Charles
