Publisher's Synopsis
They're destined for duty. But will an impossible love on the Cornish Coast rewrite their fate?
Lady Seraphina Lyndon treasures the wild beauty of her summers on the Cornish Coast. But this year is bittersweet-it's her last taste of freedom before an arranged marriage to a foreign prince. Her father's business depends on this union, but Sera's heart is drawn to someone else. A handsome and mysterious stranger on the beach has stolen her breath with his tender kisses and unforgettable charm. Now, she's desperate to find a way to lose the prince she's promised to and stay with the man who makes her feel truly alive. And how can she do this before the end of the summer?
Prince Alexander von Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen is a man of honor. Bound by duty, he knows he must head to London to complete his engagement to a woman he's never met. But lingering on the Cornish sands is a captivating beauty who stirs his soul. Drawn to Sera like the tide to the shore, Alex gives his heart away, despite its forbidden risk. She believes him to be a simple man, and he'd rather keep his identity hidden than lose that treasure. He doesn't want her to discover that he's already promised to another. Not until he can break off his engagement. But even then, if she finds out all he's been keeping from her... It might shatter the fragile bond they've built. So, how can he be with the woman he loves as just Alex and not Prince Alex?
Bound by an arranged marriage and separated by hidden identities, Sera and Alex face a web of secrets and a scheming villain. Can love prevail over duty, or will fate keep them apart forever?
