Olivia Townsend is in trouble and
out of options. Pursued by a desperate man in search of a lost treasure, which
she doesn’t have, she’s got only two things in her favor: her late husband’s
diary, which she was never meant to see… and the man who was her first-and
only-love. Losing him broke her heart, though she’s been careful to hide it for
the last ten years. But when he comes to her aid and vows to stand by her this
time, no matter what, she can’t help but hope things will be different this
time.
James Weston has blamed himself for letting Olivia down when she needed him years ago, and he will not do it again. Fortunately, his unusual life has equipped him well to outsmart the villain chasing Olivia. Unfortunately, being so near her again threatens to expose every secret in his heart…even those that should stay hidden forever.

Excerpt #1
Chapter One
1806
Sussex
Olivia Herbert knew James Weston was a rogue the first time he
winked at her, one fine Sunday morning in August when butterflies
were riding warm drafts of air through the open door of St. Godfrey’s and Mr.
Bunce the curate was droning on and on as if he meant to put every person in
the church to sleep.
She was staving off the urge to do just that by watching the
butterflies. James Weston, it turned out, was watching her. As her gaze
followed one butterfly—a delicate white one with spots of blue on its wings,
who swooped and glided effortlessly on the hazy air—it connected with James’s.
His family was sitting in the next pew over, and when their eyes met, the
impudent boy winked at her.
She looked away at once. Not only had he caught her
woolgathering, wishing she could flit about the church and out the door like
that butterfly, but it was probably a sin to wink in church. With some effort
she tried to focus her mind on the sermon, but within moments a bee flew
overhead, and once again, quite independently of any wish to be well-behaved,
her eyes tracked the insect as it buzzed away, right toward the Weston pew.
This time when he caught her eye, he grinned. Slowly he raised
one hand, and with small, cautious movements, pretended to flick the bee as it
flew by. Then he screwed up his face and mimed being stung, shaking his finger
and sticking it into his mouth.

Linden was born a reader, not a writer.
She earned a math degree from Harvard University and wrote computer software
before turning to writing fiction. Ten years, twelve books, three Red Sox
championships, and one dog later, she has never been happier with her decision.
Her books have won the NEC Reader’s Choice Beanpot Award, the Daphne du Maurier
Award, and RWA’s RITA Award. Since she never won any prizes in math, she takes
this as a sign that her decision was also a smart one. Visit her online
