When a beautiful scholar and a notorious duke find themselves in an inconvenient marriage of convenience, they discover that love is the greatest treasure of all.
Life in the highlands of Scotland is steeped in traditionand it is this rugged land that Graeme Langford, 8th Duke of Rothmore, longs to call home. Vanessa Pembrooke has always been a little bookish and has no interest in securing a husband so she flees London for Inverness, where she examines a fossilized bone that allegedly belonged to the Loch Ness Monster. She intends to prove otherwise. When Graeme is asked to help catch a criminal before he can steal the Loch Ness treasure, Vanessa overhears everything. Vanessa laughs off the idea of a monster guarding a great treasure as a myth but Graeme is not so certain. Seduced by the opportunity to search the caves of Loch Ness, Vanessa plays the dutiful wife and refuses to leave Graeme's side but Graeme does not need nor want her help, especially since the attraction between them seems to grow hotter by the minute and his restraint against consummating the marriage is weakening. Once Graeme and Vanessa find the Loch Ness treasure, they know what they need to do - use it to lure the true villain.
