Cornwall, 1779.
Brought up in a family of thieves and smugglers, spirited Jenna has never wanted to enter into the family business. Instead, she’s made it her mission to prove that not all Cartwrights are the same.
After she escapes a brutal marriage, she takes up a position in the house of Jack Penhale. But trouble is never far behind.
Silas, the only brother who has ever looked out for her, is sent to a squalid debtor’s prison. He asks Jenna for help, and she is unable to refuse.
Jenna begins leading a double life. By day she serves as Jack’s unassuming housekeeper. By night she wades deeper into the dangerous world of smuggling.
But Jenna’s not the only one leading a double life.
Jack is a thief-taker in Cornwall to get revenge for his father’s death and uncover who is behind a vicious smuggling ring.
Jenna and Jack are natural-born enemies.
And the fire that ignites instantly between them threatens to burn them both.
Can Jenna decide where her allegiances lie before her worlds collide and an even deadlier foe takes everything from her?
