Bel Air

All that glitters isn't gold . . . Sometimes it's love.


Bel Air, California, where even the rich and famous marvel at the splendor of their surroundings. It is here, in the lush, sun-bright hills above Hollywood, that Allison, Winter, and Emily search for the courage to dream, to trust, to love. 


But there are dark secrets and hidden betrayals must first be overcome.


A terrible accident has stolen Allison Fitzgerald’s dreams, and it has taught her that life is too precious — and too fragile — to waste. So when she meets a man who evokes a passion in her that she has never known before, she surrenders to his love without questioning his secretive past.


Gifted and beautiful actress Winter Carlyle has learned, from painful experience, that the people she loves always leave her, and that it is far too dangerous to care, and that she is only liked when she is pretending to be someone she is not. Still, she is willing to risk everything for the doctor who sees beyond the pretense . . . but is he willing to risk everything for her?


Emily Rousseau only feels safe, only feels free, when she is behind the lens of her camera — safe and free from the men who want her, and want to hurt her. The portraits she takes are works of art, and there is one man, unlike any other man she has ever known, who sees not only the talent in her work, but the loveliness in her. But can she accept the love, and face the demons, that will free her from her past?
