Overview

She inherits a seat at the table. He never expected to share it, least of all with the woman he left behind. Nora Penryn travels to London expecting little from her late uncle's will. Instead, she is named equal partner in Penryn & Kincaid Shipping, sharing control with Captain James Kincaid, the man she once loved, and the man she believes rejected her in a single cruel letter. James arrives certain he will gain sole authority. He is blindsided to find Nora in the room, and the board of older merchants is worse, openly doubting a woman's right to hold power in trade. Nora survives the scrutiny by speaking the language she grew up with: hull curves, stress points, ledgers, and tides. Back in Starfall Cove, the harbor is restless with rumor. Cargo has spoiled in ""intact"" holds. Repairs look rushed. A rival magnate circles, and evidence begins to point to sabotage. Nora and James are forced into partnership on land and at sea, rebuilding trust at the same time they rebuild safety. When the storm finally breaks, Nora must claim her authority in public and in private, refusing to become an ornament in any man's life. James must decide whether love is worth more than pride. And between them is a brass compass, a promise of a shared course, if they are brave enough to set it. A standalone Regency romance in the Legacies of Fortune and Love series.
