A Dangerous Legacy by Elizabeth Camden

Provided Summary by Book:
Lucy Drake's mastery of Morse code has made her a valuable asset to the American news agencies as a telegrapher. But the sudden arrival of Sir Colin Beckwith at rival British news agency Reuters puts her hard-earned livelihood at risk. Newly arrived from London, Colin is talented, handsome, and insufferably charming. 

Despite their rivalry, Lucy realizes Colin's connections could be just what her family needs to turn the tide of their long legal battle over the fortune they were swindled out of forty years ago. When she negotiates an unlikely alliance with him, neither of them realizes how far the web of treachery they're wading into will take them.

First Impressions:
Similar to a few of the other books we have reviewed lately, the lettering is raised and has very intriguing details to it, they are one of the things I start to look for in the books I see round town. In the background of the cover photo is a faded city landscape, while not 21st century it is still very modern and intrigued me to find out the time setting and the roles each character would play considering the cover also features a woman's side profile. The soft matte appearance and feel to the book is also very bold and eye catching as most soft back books use a gloss finish.

Notes:
*will be updated soon*
