Alexis Sanchez

Once a celebrated genius in the art world, I’m now just Alex, the guy who lost his shine. At thirty-three, my canvases are blank, much like my life. Then, Maya Brown crashes into my world—brilliant, ambitious, and determined to reignite not just my career but all the passion I thought I’d lost. She’s an African American gallery owner with big dreams for London's art scene, and she believes I’m the key. I should focus on my brushes and colors, but it’s Maya who captivates me. She sees past the fallen star to the man who still burns with potential. As she pushes me back to the easel, our partnership blurs into something more intense, more consuming.

Maya Brown
