She needed a husband. He needed money for his castle. Can love bloom on the open sea?

Saddled with a dilapidated castle and a title he doesn’t want, Iain Douglas wishes only to be left alone so he can return to his ship and the call of the sea. However, he’ll never allow his staff and tenants to suffer for his lack of interest.

What he needs is the funds to fix the castle so he can get back to his life. The best way to gather the funds he needs is to win a challenge at the Lyon’s Den gaming house. Despite his challenges with reading, he signs an agreement with Mrs. Dove-Lyon, the mysterious proprietress.

When he wins he expects a fortune, and the veiled woman doesn’t disappoint, but what he didn’t realize was that his winnings would come with a wife, and her young brother.

Maisy Bennett’s father is dying and while she’d only met the man a few times, his death comes with more than a daughter’s grief. Her older brother has promised to send her younger brother to an asylum to get him out of the house. Which means she needs to find a new home for herself and Jack, and she needs it to happen too quickly for traditional courting.
