Brains and Beauty Jeanette Watts

Regina Waring seems to have it all: a loving husband, a successful business, and the most expensive wardrobe in town. But nothing is as it appears. Her husband is critical and demanding, the business teeters on ruin, even the opulent wardrobe is a clever illusion. Regina's life is a delicate high wire act; one misstep and she will plunge to her doom.

Attempting to keep her life from spiraling out of control, she appeases the husband, dresses the part, and never, never says what she's really thinking. That would get in the way of getting things done. And if there's one thing Regina does really well, it is getting things done.

Enter Thomas Baldwin: young and handsome and completely off limits. Regina is smitten at first sight. Hiding her fascination behind friendship, she hides the tension behind a smile, and tries to control her racing emotions. If only she could.

The eagerly demanded sequel to Wealth and Privilege is a carefully researched historical novel about life and love among the upper class of Pittsburgh.
