Description
Leona Ruckley lives a quiet life at Ruckley Castle on the Sussex coast, bound by duty to her reckless older brother, Sir Hugh. But Hugh's mounting debts have drawn him into a dangerous alliance with a ruthless smuggling gang that uses the caves beneath their castle to conceal its illicit trade. As Hugh falls deeper under the control of the gang's merciless leader, Lew Quayle, Leona finds herself trapped in a world of deception, violence and secrets.
When Lord Chard arrives at the castle, Leona's situation becomes even more perilous. Determined to destroy the smuggling operation, he poses a direct threat to her brother and to everything she has struggled to protect. Caught between loyalty to her brother and her growing feelings for the man sworn to bring them to justice, Leona faces an impossible choice. And, as the authorities close in on the smuggling gang, can Leona save her brother, or must she sacrifice not only her future but her heart?
