- She wants a business partner. He wants forever. When Victorian shipping tycoon Jem Brigg is killed in a robbery, his family and the business world are shocked to discover the actual owner of the company is a woman, and a young one at that. Eleanora Pembroke's first action as owner is to hire the handsome and capable Eliot Sparks as the face of the company. **xA0; Her status as the premier heiress of London, motivates a host of suitors interested only in her shipping company. But Eleanora has already had her heart broken once by a sweet-talking fortune hunter. To end the constant barrage of suitors, Eleanora proposes a fake engagement with her debonair new manager, Eliot Sparks. But Eliot has other ideas. Eleanora is the woman of his dreams, and he won't be giving her up easily. When the two of them uncover embezzlement and murder in the company, they work together to find the culprit. Their investigation takes them through danger and detection---but not all their discoveries have to do with murder--- some of them reveal the mysteries of the heart. **xA0; ________________________________________ Praise for Cynthia Keyes **x2605; **x2605; **x2605; **x2605; **x2605; I read the whole book in one day. **x2605; **x2605; **x2605; **x2605; **x2605; Definitely recommend for anyone who loves Historical Romance. **x2605; **x2605; **x2605; **x2605; **x2605; I read the whole book in one day. **x2605; **x2605; **x2605; **x2605; **x2605; Anyone who loves a good love affair, mystery and an ending that leaves you wanting more.

- About The Author
- I wish I could say that I wanted to be a writer my whole life, that it was my dream. But it wasn't. I fell into it on a whim and discovered to my surprise that I enjoyed it. What I always have been is a reader. I will read anything. During the times I could not afford books, I read whatever sat on the shelves of the secondhand store. Sometimes it was History, sometimes Romance, and sometimes it was how to make macrame hangers. But I am getting ahead of myself. I grew up in Brightsand Saskatchewan, in an immigrant family with six siblings. We were a hard-working troop, scraping a living out of a rocky mixed farm. I look back on those busy years fondly. I have plenty of stories about walking through miles of snow to school, uphill both ways! I went to the University of Saskatchewan, studying History and English, which I converted into a career in teaching. I love my job. I teach a wild crew of junior high students. There is never a dull moment. It has been a passion of mine which has truly made life worth living. Much of my time is committed to coaching. I can be found most mornings in the gym by six thirty, spending time with my teams. We have had some memorable seasons, winning basketball districts against all odds. I was lucky enough to marry the love of my life. My husband and I share another passion, gardening. He does the vegetables and I do the flowers. Together we spend many peaceful evenings, enjoying the beauty and bounty we have created. I squeeze my writing into the bits and pieces of the day that remain. In many ways it is my personal time. I have been surprised by the writing process. Though I start with a plan, my characters always surprise me with their antics. I look forward to every new book, with its host of characters leading me into places unknown.
