Eleanor Hart lives two lives. By day, she’s a meticulous curator inside one of the city’s most prestigious museums. By night, she is Provenance, an anonymous blogger exposing the carefully hidden scandals of the elite. Julian Cross believes in control. As the museum’s newly appointed director, reputation is everything and Eleanor’s carefully constructed world threatens to disrupt his own. When a public misunderstanding forces them into a convincing fake relationship, lines blur faster than either of them expect. What begins as strategy turns into proximity. What begins as protection turns into trust. But secrets have consequences and when the truth surfaces, Eleanor and Julian must decide whether love can survive honesty, or if control will cost them everything. Some things are staged. Some truths are dangerous. And some love was always real.
