Burning Caine by Janet Oppedisano

A house fire leaves one man dead and a million-dollar painting destroyed. Before paying out, the insurance company enlists art claims specialist Samantha Caine to search for signs of fraud. All she needs are her skills and an expert to authenticate the painting’s charred remains.
Art Conservator Dr. Antonio Ferraro is immediately drawn to Samantha, but her sharp tongue and plans to never date again pose a challenge. As does the burned painting, which is little more than strips of blackened canvas. Not a man to back down, he’s confident he can uncover the proof she needs and win her over in the process.
As pressure to close the claim mounts, so do the lies. Everything is more complicated than it seems, and Antonio’s keeping secrets of his own. When Samantha discovers the truth, will their chance at romance go up in smoke?
