Diamond Empress: A Novella

By Ophelia Lux

Tessa Morgan was supposed to be relaxing on this cruise-not stuck working as an emergency replacement for her best friend, the ship's concierge. But when she steps aboard the Diamond Empress, she's met with the last person she ever wanted to see again: Callum Hayes, the ship's new head of security-and the man who ruined her career years ago.

Callum doesn't believe in coincidences. He knows Tessa still blames him for what happened, but his job is to keep passengers safe, not smooth over the past. That is, until an onboard jewel thief sets their sights on the ship's elite guests-and the captain assigns them to work together to catch the culprit.

Forced into close quarters, navigating moonlit decks and secret passageways, old grudges begin to blur with new, undeniable chemistry. But as the thief grows bolder and the stakes higher, Tessa and Callum will have to decide what's more dangerous-the elusive criminal they're chasing... or the feelings they can no longer outrun.

A high-stakes enemies-to-lovers romance filled with sizzling tension, tropical nights, and a love that refuses to sink.
