Mom, Dad, Billy, and Kathy Masters move to Everett, Washington, to live in an old mansion that was built by Clifton Masters, Kathy and Billy's Great-Grandfather. The whispered stories of big sailing ships, pirates, and hidden treasure, excite Billy like nothing has ever done before. Mother sees the old run-down house that sits well off the road atop a high cliff overlooking Everett Bay as needing a lot of work. Father sees it as a hobby, but Billy and Kathy see it as their own private Disneyland castle. Rumor has it that their Great-Grandfather was a pirate, and that he'd hidden a pile of gold somewhere on his estate. A neighbor, Old-Man Parker, adds weight to the rumor when he shows the children a gold doubloon. Hidden rooms and mysterious clues lead Billy and Kathy on an adventure of a lifetime, as they secretly search their Great-Grandfather's mansion for the lost treasure.

Pleasure won is more precious than treasure found in this scintillating pirate romance from Michelle Beattie. Abandoned by her father and married to a deceitful man, Claire Gentry fled from her life. Now, disguised as a man, Claire wagers all she owns in a poker game to locate the treasure her father sought. But while her disguise holds, it doesn't protect her when one of her opponents turns out to be the man she once gave her heart to. Sailing under the alias of the mysterious pirate Sam Steele, Nate Carter is looking to gamble for a map that will lead him to a treasure. But when he looks over his cards and sees Claire, he's reminded of a past he'd rather forget—and of the woman who could have given him everything he truly wanted. When Nate wins the map, Claire has no choice but to accompany her old love on his quest. And if they survive the bloody battle for the treasure, they may just realize that what they've really been searching for isn’t riches—but each other...
