In Francine Craft's latest installment of the Steele family saga, readers are introduced to Caitlin Coster. Caitlin is the proprietor of an art gallery located in Washington, D.C. Having endured the loss of her twin brother, husband and infant son, Caitlin doesn't know how she could have survived had it not been for her special friend and colleague, renowned artist Marty Steele.

Marty has been in love with Caitlin for years, but has never made his intentions known. When Marty decides to visit for an extended period of time, his first order of business is to persuade Caitlin to give them a chance. After discovering some priceless paintings missing from her gallery, Caitlin finds herself in danger. Will Marty come to her rescue or is it too late?

Francine Craft has penned a very suspenseful tale. The novel is well-written with an intriguing storyline that paves the way to a very romantic climax. DREAMS OF ECSTASY is chocked full of murder, lies and deceit; readers will not want to see it end. I thoroughly enjoyed watching each and every brush stroke fill the blank canvas of Caitlin and Marty's life to reveal a masterpiece of finding true love and happiness.
