In
one
devastating
night, violin
prodigy Etta
Spencer loses
everything she
knows and
loves. Thrust
into an
unfamiliar
world by a
stranger with
a dangerous
agenda, Etta
is certain of
only one
thing: she has
traveled not
just miles,
but years from
home. And
she's
inherited a
legacy she
knows nothing
about from a
family whose
existence
she's never
heard of.
Until now.
Nicholas
Carter is
content with
his life at
sea, free from
the
Ironwoods-a
powerful
family in the
Colonies-and
the servitude
he's known at
their hands.
But with the
arrival of an
unusual
passenger on
his ship comes
the insistent
pull of the
past that he
can't escape
and the family
that won't let
him go so
easily. Now
the Ironwoods
are searching
for a stolen
object of
untold value,
one they
believe only
Etta, his
passenger, can
find. In order
to protect
her, Nick must
ensure she
brings it back
to
them-whether
she wants to
or not. (New
