This is a combined romance/mystery/thriller, well-crafted by an excellent writer.

From back cover: Faith Donovan is famous for crafting exquisite jewelry--and the dangerous task of acquiring rare and fabulous gems has taught her to be wary of anyone outside her own family. But now necessity has thrown her together with Owen Walker--an adventurer with an intimate knowledge of the ruby trade--as they venture into the shadowy world of the wealthy and mysterious Montegeaus.
A powerful Georgia clan descended from pirates, the Montegeaus are said to possess a staggering fortune in gems, hidden for generations in the legendary Blessing Chest. But a terrifying web of corruption and betrayal spreads out from the Montegeaus past and present. And suddenly Faith and Walker--two outsiders who have learned too much--are standing in the way of those who would kill for the Blessing Chest's contents.
