About This Book

A dispossessed prince living incognito in America after a secret marriage is presumed dead by his family; the narrative follows his attempt to balance private happiness with pressures to resume hereditary duties. Tensions arise from his wife's American upbringing and social ambitions, rival claims and whispered scandals, and schemes that lead to abduction, imprisonment, and dramatic revelations. Through social maneuvering, legal and emotional reckonings, the plot examines loyalty, identity, and the personal cost of restoring or renouncing dynastic rights.
