Artist romance books
He sees the world in color and light — and he's never wanted to capture anyone the way he wants to capture her.
The artist hero feels in images. Painter, sculptor, photographer, he experiences the world with heightened sensitivity and channels it into work that bares his soul. The fantasy is being someone's muse and obsession — the subject a passionate creator can't stop returning to — and the intimacy of being truly seen by someone who looks for a living.
He's a sensual fixture of contemporary and new-adult romance, where the creative temperament gives the romance intensity and texture. He overlaps with the tortured, musician, and bookish types, and the romance often turns on vulnerability and the way art exposes the heart. The heat ranges from sweet to steamy.
For readers who love sensitivity, passion, and a hero who'd immortalize the heroine in paint or print, the artist is romance with a creative soul.
