The Worth Saga

Courtney Milan

As Captain Grayson Hunter races to build the world’s first global telegraphic network, he seeks out a brilliant recluse whose breakthrough could transform communication—and secure his victory. Amelia Smith, a self-taught mathematical genius shaped by an unconventional childhood, has no interest in becoming anyone’s hired asset, least of all Grayson’s. But their clash of wills soon gives way to an irresistible partnership, drawing them into a romance that challenges his guarded heart and her fiercely independent spirit. Set against the ambition and innovation of the nineteenth century, this historical romance explores love, trust, identity, and the courage to claim a future on one’s own terms.

As their scheme unfolds, sharp wit, hard-won freedom, and unexpected affection turn a battle against a thoroughly deserving villain into an incomparable late-life romance.
