Orphaned, with no acceptable marriage prospects, and in desperate need of money to support her twin brothers and sister, Cassandra Verrerre hopes to convince Sir Phillip Neville to help her find the long-lost Spanish Dowry. More than a century ago, Cassandra's ancestor Margaret jilted her fiancé at the altar. Her dowry, a treasure in gold and jewels, disappeared. Now Cassandra has reason to think that by finding some letters and a coded map she can recover the treasure and restore her family's financial independence. But she doesn't count on falling for Phillip, a man whose sensual expertise leads her to persistently mistrust him. The efforts of Cassandra's coquettish cousin to trap the wealthy Phillip in marriage add humor to this intriguing treasure hunt in which the greatest discovery is, of course, love. --Ellen Edwards [via]
