A Caribbean Heiress in Paris is a triumph! — Sarah MacLean

Historical romance at its very best - fresh, lush, and full of steam! — Sophie Jordan

Paris, 1889.

Luz Alana Heith-Benzan, heiress to the Cana Brava rum empire, has sailed all the way from Santo Domingo with one purpose: expanding her family's business.

Enter James Evanston Sinclair, Earl of Darnick. From their first tempestuous meeting, Luz Alana is conflicted - why is this titled, and infuriatingly charming, Scottish man so willing to help her?

Evan might have his own reasons for supporting Luz Alana but every day they spend together makes him yearn for more of her. And with Luz Alana's inheritance dependent on her being married, a marriage of convenience might be the perfect solution.

But when Luz Alana set sail to Paris, she came armed with three hundred casks of rum, her two best friends and one simple rule: under no circumstances is she to fall in love...
