In the shadow of Halifax's high society, Madeline Murray stands as a guardian of the Everwell Society, preferring books and roses to any man's company. But when dark whispers threaten the Everwell Society, Maddy agrees to play bodyguard to Beau da Silva, a cocky captain of industry wrongfully accused of his father's murder. Doing a favour for one of Halifax's most notable families will save Everwell, and give Maddy the chance to be left alone, safe from heartbreak.

Beau made a fortune using his natural charm and knack for spotting lucrative ventures. He's spent a lifetime chasing the next deal all to prove himself worthy of his father's love. Forced into hiding with a tantalizing Titian goddess unmoved by his charms, Beau uncovers family secrets and realizes that his lifelong pursuits have left him with a full bank account, but an empty life. As Beau discovers Maddy's romantic, passionate soul, he is convinced there is only one treasure he desires—her love.

For Maddy, the possibility of a life entwined with Beau's represents a dream she never dared to dream. Can she trust the love of a man who seemingly has the world at his feet, but finds his greatest treasure in her?
