About This Book
A spirited young princess of mixed American descent rebels against dynastic expectations and refuses a prescribed match, then encounters a stern chamois hunter whose true identity as the ruling emperor is gradually revealed. Their mutual attraction ignites amid alpine adventure, courtly entertainments, and an imperial ball, while ministers, a skeptical chancellor, and social protocol complicate their relationship. Misunderstandings, political pressure, and personal pride prompt legal and personal tests, including dramatic confrontations and a revealing episode involving a symbolic citron, before loyalties, honesty, and affection lead to resolution.
