When digging for treasure, you never know what your heart might find.
Julian Huntly, Earl of Melville, is being forced into marriage to a proper woman by his dead father. If he doesn't wed before he's thirty, he will lose everything. Even worse, the workers counting on him will be in danger. But he has a year to have one last great adventure before being shackled to someone for the rest of his life.
Miss Elaina Bantham has had an exciting existence away from Society as she's traveled the globe and uncovered treasures with her aunt and uncle. It has been a wonderful distraction from her disastrous come out years ago. Too freckled, too tall, and too worldly, she's settled contently into spinsterhood. But now, the man who'd destroyed her chance for a traditional future, is set to join their expedition to Egypt and ruin her life.
Julian could be happy with Elaina, but she is not proper enough to satisfy his father's demands. He must decide if he will lose everything, or give up his chance on love.
Contains mature themes.
