A marriage contract. A lost treasure. A legacy neither of them asked for.
Evan Sloane, grandson of a notorious pirate, has spent his life trying to rise above his family's past. Now a respected enquiry agent known as Valiant, he's used to danger - but nothing prepares him for the peculiar woman who keeps appearing wherever he goes.
Vivienne Hart holds a seventy-year-old contract that binds her to Evan by marriage. She also carries the secret to a long-lost fortune, and someone will stop at nothing to claim it.
Forced into a reluctant partnership, Evan and Vivienne must follow a trail of clues left by their grandfathers. But as peril closes in and desire grows, they begin to realise that the most enduring legacies aren't measured in gold-but in trust, loyalty, and love.
