English orphan Miss Evangeline Scoffield has spent her life contenting
herself with dreams. But with an unforeseen inheritance, she can afford
one perfect summer--a summer she will spend the rest of her life
remembering. She buys herself expensive clothes, travels abroad, and
presents herself as a lady of mystery.
But she quickly discovers her mistake, for a darkly handsome man appears
at her bedroom door, claiming to be a Crown Prince--and her fiance.
One look into her eyes, and the prince recognizes her. She is his
betrothed, the runaway Princess of Serephina. All her denials cannot
change that, or alter the passion that burgeons between them. To fulfill
their destinies, the prince will do anything--abduct her, coerce her,
or, best of all, seduce his reluctant bride into his royal world of
peril, promise and passion.
