One wicked night of passion results in life-altering consequences for innocent bar maid Maggie Goode. Years later, she's a respectable widow, but her troubles are far from over. With debts looming, she must salvage her fossil shop to support herself and her beloved daughter. Fate leads her to a man who can save her business...but he's also the biggest mistake from her past.

The product of an ill-fated union between an English aristocrat and a Chinese merchant's daughter, Rhys Cavendish, the Duke of Ranelagh and Somerville ("Ransom"), hides his secret pain behind a rakish façade. Yet he cannot hide from his debts, and now he's on the run from cutthroat moneylenders - and the necessity of marrying for convenience. His last hope: the inheritance his uncle left him in the form of a treasure map. When he goes to hire help for his expedition, he comes face to face with a woman he's never forgotten...and a daughter he never knew he had.

Dangerous secrets smolder between Maggie and Rhys, but neither can resist a scorching reunion. Personal demons and hidden enemies threaten their quest and their passionate romance. Will they defy all odds to find the ultimate treasure: a love for all time?

Grace's books feature sizzling-hot historical romance, feel-good happily-ever-afters, and exciting mystery and adventure. Her books are stand-alones, which can also be enjoyed as part of her interconnected series.

Lusty Listen

This book was harder for me to get into, but once I finally did it was wonderful. It’s definitely worth it. Marianne does such a great job with all the voices and I love her husky voices. Reese was a pain in the ass in the beginning, but after a few chapters, you fall desperately in love with him. Even Maggie was a little too self deprecating in the beginning but once she starts to gain confidence, it never stops. She is bold and brash and full of tenacity. Glory is a wonderful character and changes Reese in so many ways. It is a very sensual book that gets your heart pumping. I’m looking forward to the next in the series.

A Mix of Cultures

A mix of blood, foreign and exotic. A violent, evil Duke. A slow beginning and a hero who seems irresponsible and not too intelligent changes to a fast paced story with a hero who learns more and more about himself and becomes responsible for his inherited responsibilities.
