A man seeking his destiny in India discovers a woman who may hold it in her hands—and her frozen heart—in this “well-crafted historical romance” (Historical Novels Review).
It’s 1759—and Jamie Kinross has travelled far and wide to escape his troubled past, eventually settling in the chaotic streets of Madras, India, where he starts life anew as a gem trader.
When his mentor’s family is kidnapped, Jamie vows to save them, embarking on a dangerous mission to the city of Surat—where he encounters Zarmina Miller. She is rich, beautiful, and so cold and prideful that she is known as the “Ice Widow.” Jamie is instantly tempted by the challenge she presents.
And when Jamie discovers that Zarmina has a connection to those involved in the kidnapping, he begins to see another side to her—a dark past to rival his own and a heart just waiting to be thawed . . .
