Victim of Deception

A bond broken, victim of deception.

The death of her great aunt leaves Karessa Austin with an old Victorian-style house on the outskirts of Fort Worth, Texas. Being a modern woman who lives in a large condo, she has no idea what she'll do with the house.

One look and she falls in love with the charm of the ancient home. She decides to remodel it and bring it back to its original beauty. She has no idea there are two ghosts living there...ghosts who happen to be her great-great-grandparents.

Maxwell Hennessey is a treasure hunter, and a very lucky one. At forty, he's already made a fortune from sunken ships, hidden piles of gold and silver, and unclaimed stocks and bearer bonds. His latest search takes him to Fort Worth, where he believes he'll find a bearer bond worth millions.

The one kink in his plan is Karessa, the woman who now lives in the house where the bond is hidden. She's also the woman who can't stand him. He has to somehow charm her into forgetting about their unsavory past so he has complete access to her house.

He'd never planned to fall in love with her all over again.
