Will his daring bargain keep her close—or push her away forever?

Helen Gray arrives in London with a Boston-built clipper and a courageous plan—racing to China for the first tea of the season, breaking speed records and earning a fortune. All Helen wants is her freedom, not the glory, but first she needs a shipload of silver to fund her venture. Alas, no one will negotiate with a woman, especially an American whose wickedly fast ship will scandalize the British fleet. No one except…

Nicholas Irons, born Nikolaos Sideris, a man who defied tradition to forge his own destiny. He’s known for his cool head in business until brilliant and mysterious Helen unlocks something within him, something unstoppable. He’ll fund her risky proposition…if she remains behind as collateral.

London was meant to be temporary, but finding a place in Nicholas’s loving, powerful family—and in his arms—threatens Helen’s resolve to sail away to a new life.

The tea venture could end with windfall profits or their precious cargo lost to the ocean’s depths, but will Helen and Nicholas's adventure last a lifetime?
