I**fI had a do over, would I not have chosen to marry my husband?**Actually, yes and not for the expected reasons. See, it started with a smirk from across the crowded room. Then we danced the night away. Don’t get me wrong, I love the man with all my heart, but if I could rewind and start over, I would. What happened next involved the casual mention of the Cartagena Catch—a rare treasure, for those not familiar with the lore—and a little fib on my part. Now we’re married and it’s too late to change my story. The thing is, we’re both seeking it but for different reasons. If he found out that mine include revenge and golden-eyed greed, he’d probably hate me. CJ McGregor, pearl and pirate hunter extraordinaire, hooked me good, and I’m not willing to let him go. But I have a job to do. I’m not a fisherman or a ballerina, but I’ve gone incognito as both. As for my real identity, I can’t give it up or I risk losing everything, including true love and my family’s legacy. Now his brothers are involved and this tiny island isn’t big enough for all this activity. With our relationship on the rocks, I have to be the first to find the treasure and then we can forget this whole thing happened and go on a cruise—at least I think that’s what regular couples do. Then again, being a secret agent isn’t exactly normal, but I hope CJ doesn’t hand me over to the pirates when he learns the truth. Book 4 in this beachy, small town, brothers, treasure hunt-romantic comedy mashup might just steal your heart. The second chance romance stands alone, but because of the mystery subplot, the books are best read in order. Fall in love with this sweet and swoony closed door romance today!
