Book excerpt: From USA TODAY bestselling author Stef Ann Holm, “Portraits is a treasure of love and life that will make you laugh and cry and, above all, feel the true joy in reading a good romance” (Rendezvous magazine). The only woman photographer in Eternity, Colorado, or just about anywhere else, Leah Kirkland longs to be famous. Her dream of studying in a renowned Italian academy precludes traditional courting. But that doesn’t mean she’s averse to romance with a free spirit like herself. Men don’t intimidate her, though nothing prepares Leah for the purely physical attraction she feels for Wyatt Holloway, the stranger in town… Wyatt Holloway had been an outlaw in his youth, and he’d done hard time to pay for it. Now he’s looking for gold he’d stashed in Eternity nearly two decades before. Instead he discovers a treasure he wants more than money—Leah Kirkland. Having known notoriety, Wyatt would be content to lead a quiet life on a ranch with Leah as his wife. But her big-city ideas contradict his plan, especially when she discovers that a bullet from his own gun may have murdered her mother long ago…
