A successful LA artist, Roman Velasco appears to have everything he could possibly want - money, women, fame. Only Grace Moore, his reluctant, newly hired personal assistant, knows how little he truly has. The demons of Roman's past seem to echo through the halls of his empty mansion and out across his breathtaking Topanga Canyon view. But Grace doesn't know how her boss secretly wrestles with those demons: by tagging buildings as the Bird, a notorious but unidentified graffiti artist - an alter ego that could destroy his career and land him in prison.

Can she break away from her family's expectations? And will she ever be loved for who she truly is?

Enjoyable historical fiction read!

Which scene was your favorite?

My favorite scene was when Lucy is able to see her former fiance as a person in need and look beyond her own injustices in order to help him. It was kind of an unexpected twist to the story considering the time period.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Not really. It was more of a comfy, cozy read rather than a page turner. Nothing at all wrong with that. Who has time these days to sit down and read (or listen to) a book in one sitting?

Any additional comments?

Author did a great job of tying in several different story elements such as the beginning of the feminist movement and mental illness.

Tame and sweet

I did enjoy this book, don't get me wrong. I just found it tame and sweet. A bit of intrigue and a plot to harm, romance and caring for others, but it seemed to lack a 'get up and go' element to make it exciting.
The narrator was quite good and worked nicely with the story.
I think this author can do better with a more editing of a stronger nature to make her stories 'pop' as her ideas and concepts are good, but they came out bland in the telling.
