Gemological Hearts and Hidden Treasures

When precious stones hold deadly secrets, love becomes the most valuable discovery of all.

Gemologist Kate Fuller arrives in Seabreeze Cove expecting a routine consultation on decorative stones. Instead, she uncovers uncut gems worth millions hidden in Margaret's garden—gems processed using techniques that shouldn't exist. When her discovery catches the attention of insurance investigator Jaxon Cross, Kate finds herself drawn into both a federal investigation and an unexpected partnership with someone whose sharp mind and protective instincts make her pulse race.
As Kate traces the origins of Margaret's mysterious collection, she discovers connections to international gem trafficking and family secrets spanning generations. But when her investigation attracts dangerous attention from criminals who view Catherine Stewart's suppressed innovations as profitable commodities, Kate must decide whether her growing feelings for Jaxon are worth the risk of exposing both their hearts and their lives to those who kill for treasure.
With federal agents closing in and criminals growing desperate, Kate and Jaxon race against time to protect world-changing innovations—if they can survive long enough to expose the truth.

Perfect for fans of Christina Lauren and Lucy Score, this romantic suspense sparkles with scientific expertise, small-town charm, and slow-burn romance.
