My captor, my lover, my king...
I'm the daughter of American royalty, but our family has fallen from grace. My reputation is tarnished, my love life is in tatters, and my life is in danger. There's no way out of the mess I've created until the Crown Prince of Androvia arrives to rescue me. Even though he's a stranger, I'm captivated by his air of command and his blue-green eyes. They're the color of the Aegean Sea; warm, clear, and bottomless. I'm no fool, however. The most beautiful waters often hide the most threatening dangers. He's offering his protection in return for my hand in marriage.
If I want to live, I'll accept his offer. If I want to protect my heart, I need to run.
