Orphaned Alicia Shepherd makes her living through prying ancient secrets from the coast, while her sister’s illness turns every day into a struggle for survival. When a desperate noblewoman offers a fortune for Alicia to marry in her place, she does the unthinkable to save her sibling. Can love be the poor fossil huntress absolution or will pretense be her unraveling?

Philip Rodlington, Marquess of Rodlington, has yet to forgive the sea for what it stole from him. Ruled by grief and pride, and pressed by his uncle to marry for an heir, he reluctantly agrees to an arrangement of convenience. What if true love lies with his new bride that is nothing like the practiced debutantes he knows of?

In a cold marriage, Alicia and Philip begin to thaw, drawn together by sharp minds, stubborn hearts, and an undeniable pull toward each other. When a ruthless stranger appears, threatening to reveal Alicia’s deception, the stakes are higher than ever.
