The arrogance of women - Teresa Benison

Eleanor Bycroft, tall and commanding, is a powerful and magnetic woman. Creative and driven, with a successful career in an art gallery, she attracts other strong and talented people. Her best friend, Jessica, nurses Eleanor through a tragic affair with a married man. Eleanor repays her by stealing away the one man she has wanted, Adam Mason, a brilliant chef who attempts to provide Eleanor with the stability she seems to crave. But Eleanor is also dangerously attracted to Simon Whitburn, a raw and unsophisticated painter who taps into the deep, violent side of the nature.
