This is a dual timeline story of love. Darcey is working on her thesis but the family is running out of money for her to continue. She lives with her parents who take care of Darcey young daughter. She wants to finish her education so she can take care of all of them. When she is offered the chance to research the family of wealthy Archie Northwood, she thinks she can do both. A good story with some rich Brazilian history.

This is a dual timeline story of a woman working on her thesis who decides to study an artist in the early 19th century when she finds some letters from the artist to a friend.

I was bored with this story and ended up quitting it about 45% in. It didn't do anything for me.

The Art of Always is told in dual timelines. Ana, who is in the 1920s and Darcey in the 90s. Ana is a rising artist who is very passionate about her art. Darcey is a mother of a three year old and is working on her PhD in Art History. Through Darcey's program, she is given the opportunity to delve into the life of Ana Eca. This book is full of Brazilian culture, secrets, intrigue and beautifully written. Thank you Netgalley and Wild Rose Press for a copy in exchange for an honest review.
