Solving cold cases, outwitting rivals, and reinventing his hero's ancient inventions, Ethan wins scholar Claire Hart's heart while reviving history for modern audiences. His brilliance isn't magic — it's a lifelong obsession finally paying off.

Rhea Steele has been married to Jacob Burke, CEO of Burke Corp, for ten years and is raising their nine-year-old son. But Jacob's heart belongs to his childhood sweetheart, Ellie Lowe.
