Recently widowed, Sarah, Lady Iverson, is expected to quietly live off her substantial inheritance until she remarries. Instead she chooses to forge ahead with her late husband's work, excavating an ancient Viking village rumored to be full of cursed treasure. Never does she expect to uncover the foundations of a timeless passion.
When Miles Rutledge inherits his uncle's estate near York, he is dismayed that an archaeological dig is being performed on grounds best suited for crops. At the same time, the new Lord Ransome is piqued by Sarah's scholarly pursuits--and entranced by a growing connection between them that promises a wealth beyond any buried riches.
