BLURB:
1893 . . . Jennifer Crawford, the peacekeeper in a well-to-do Boston family rife with anger, deceit, and even treachery, was born to solve mathematical mysteries at a time when women are only beginning to venture from home and into the world of commerce and politics. Beautiful and shy, she struggles to find the courage to face a scheming mother and guide a father denying their familial dysfunction, hesitant to traverse the volatile economics banks are facing at the turn of the twentieth century. But danger threatens when she discovers the crimes of an abusive man determined to make Jennifer his own.
Zebidiah Moran, chief of staff for a new senator in Washington, is determined to uncover the lovely Jennifer’s secrets and guard her from danger. But will his sacrifices be enough to keep her safe?

Excerpt:
Zeb walked into the dining room, knowing at first glance that it was large and elegant, nothing like the alcove where he and Max had grabbed their meals at the Hacienda when not eating in the kitchen. In his peripheral vision, he saw Jolene rise from her place and walk toward him. But his eyes, his focus, had been arrested by a woman seated directly across from the chair a servant now held for him to be seated in. Jennifer Crawford.
They stared at each other, for some long moments, Zeb thought, before he inclined his head and spoke her name. Her lips moved but he could not hear her whispered response. She was as stunningly beautiful and as outwardly delicate as he remembered her, with her golden hair piled casually on her head and her long lashes wafting furiously around sea-green eyes as she returned his regard.
“Miss Crawford,” he repeated. “It is good to see you. You are looking very lovely.”
It was then he remembered someone stood at his side. “Jolene,” he said and turned then to her, taking both of her hands in his. “It is very good to see you again, too.”
Jolene’s eyebrows arched. “Really, Zebidiah? At first I didn’t think you knew I was even in the room.”
