Gemologist Piper Linwood can't wait to get her hands on her latest project. But she never expects to be tempted by anything other than jewels until she sees a sexy man at the museum. There's just one problem. He's a jewel thief and a dragon shifter.

Five hundred years ago, the dark and brooding Mikhail Barinov failed to protect his family's hoard of jewels from being stolen. Now that they've been found, he has a chance at redemption . . . and a possible mate in Piper.

When Mikhail steals back the jewels and flies off with Piper in tow, they'll both have choices to make regarding their futures.

If centuries of exile taught Mikhail one thing, it's never trust a beautiful woman. Will she betray him to save her career? Or will she stay and become the dragon's greatest treasure?
