Radiant

By: Judy Sapphire

Narrated by: Islay Jacobs

Blake Harrison's star is rising. Preparing for her new museum installation, she's trying to navigate her work, her newfound fame, and her reputation for volatility. She's also trying to abide by her "monastic before a show" rule, and has no idea what to do about the stunning lawyer who insults her and entrances her in equal measure.

Jenny O'Toole is in a professional and romantic rut. Her career as a corporate lawyer is stifling, she's closeted at work, and her current relationship is with Netflix and wine. She's not looking for a new girlfriend, and if she was, she certainly wouldn't chase an irrational, pretentious conceptual artist like Blake Harrison.

It's dislike at first sight-but when the artist and lawyer keep running into each other, the loathing turns to lust. As they weather Boston's frigid winter, Blake and Jenny navigate their deepening feelings, and hope that their budding relationship can weather everything coming between them.

Such a beautiful story!

This was such a slow smoldering love story! The gradual buildup of their relationship. The chemistry between Julie and Blake was intense. The description of each of the rooms made me feel like I was there as well as the characters. The narrator was excellent in the way she captured the nuances of each scene in the story. Well done!

Loved parts but didn’t like other parts

The artist was hard to like. I wasn’t buying the falling in love part of their relationship. When they slept together the first time, my thoughts were, I hope they had a STD test. Over all it was ok.

A favorite

I could tell right away that this book would turn out to be one of my favorites. I will read it many times. The writing is superb. It’s as though the author was painting me a picture with words. I stayed up to finish it in one day because I couldn’t wait to see what happened. Beautiful story!

The Art of Love & The Love of Art 🖼️

A delightful, and well narrated novel, of two independent and successful women from two different worlds, art and law, brought together by controversy and undeniable chemistry.
Can their passion for each other unite them, or will their dedication to their careers pull them apart?
