So, Lily is an artist who finds herself nearly homeless after her paintings are removed from a gallery due to poor sales, and she is evicted from her apartment. She has also broken up with her toxic boyfriend. Lily has nowhere to go and cannot afford to rent a new place. She goes to the company that evicted her and comes away with a contract to paint for the company. All expenses paid.

It started well, but the author decided to change points of view without any justification, and the story’s energy dropped. The chapters felt rushed, and the characters’ entire world became limited to brushes and statistics. The plot is circular, and, funnily or perhaps sadly enough, it ends with a circle. (See comment.)

I’m lost. The author changed POVs and it’s not Ethan or his assistant’s. It’s written in 3rd POV but I don’t know who it belongs to😳
“At 5:47 PM, Lily submitted her first daily progress note through the artist portal. It was the kind of language that traveled well upward. Continued detail work on primary commission. Focused on color relationships in upper-right quadrant. Good progress.” page 134

Now the story is picking up. Lily moved to the new apartment to start the commissioned work for Ethan’s company. I think he planned the whole eviction thing to get to know her. They are falling for each other. This novel has a Corin Tellado feel to it.

By the way, the CEO who employed her is her ex-boyfriend’s brother. Ethan went to great lengths to send her the contract and have her fly to Dublin in business class so she can paint for the company. Lily is either extremely talented, or he is up to something.
