About this ebook
After meeting her dream man and hoping to settle down, a supermodel discovers beauty has a price in this African American romance.
From her first high-heeled step onto a Paris runway, supermodel Seneca Houston has been a sensation. Ever since, she’s been surrounded by couture clothes, glittering celebrities—and the constant glare of the paparazzi. She’s become muse to designer Luis Navarro, who christens her Butterfly. Now, at thirty-three, Seneca wants the only thing that seems out of reach—a husband, children and a normal life.
When her agent offers his secluded villa as a hideaway, Seneca finds both tranquillity and Dr. Eliot Rollins, a renowned plastic surgeon who is quickly captivated by the intelligent woman behind the breathtaking face. But when Seneca decides to retire from modeling, there are repercussions she never expected. Some people want Butterfly to stay trapped in the spotlight, even if it destroys her. Surrounded by tabloid scandal, grasping relatives and friends with hidden agendas, Seneca wonders if anything can be trusted—even her own heart. . . .

I was hooked from the very first page. Seneca's journey from new modeling discovery to the super model known as Butterfly and finally to true love, marriage, and motherhood is simply riveting. The depiction of her family members and the men in her life, including her long friendship with designer Luis Navarro adds a depth to her story that takes this novel far beyond the scope of your usual romance novel.

Liked it because it was not all about romance by the young girl finding herself in the modeling industry
