Hailed as “splendid . . . a keeper” (Rendezvous), this sparkling novel has delighted and captivated countless fans of New York Times bestselling author Julie Garwood.

Deceiving himself that he wanted only to protect her, Colin swept her into a union meant to be a marriage in name alone . . . yet Alesandra’s tender first kiss and hesitant caress ignited a wildfire in his soul. As the lovely princess dashed headlong into unforeseen dangers, Colin would follow, knowing he must claim her as his own forever.
