“What more could New York Times bestselling author
Karen Hawkins’s fans desire” than the “sharp repartee,
clever plotting, memorable characterization, and sizzling
sexual tension” (RT Book Reviews) of her sparkling
Oxenburg Princes fairy tale romance series?
Nikolai Romanovin, a royal prince of Oxenburg, has travelled
to the deepest wilds of Scotland to rescue his grandmother
the Grand Duchess, who was abducted while visiting an old
friend in the Highlands. Wanting to avoid an international
incident, Nik plans to quietly slip into enemy territory
disguised as a groom at Castle Cromartie. But his plans go
awry when he falls under the cool gray gaze of the laird’s
daughter.
Pragmatic and clever, Ailsa Mackenzie has been left in
charge of the family estate and her unruly grandmother in
her father’s absence. Something about the new groom catches
her eyes, and makes her think he’s not who he pretends to
be—and even more shockingly, stirs her senses. Is it his
obviously educated manners? His arrogant, non-servant-like
presence? It’s certainly not his towering, powerful
form, or slumberous, inviting green eyes!
After confronting the imposter and learning the truth, Ailsa
agrees to help Nik—for she, too, understands difficult
relatives and would do anything for family. Soon their
secret partnership leads to growing respect, searing kisses,
and then something far more perilous. And when their quest
turns dangerous, Ailsa and Nik must discover this unknown
enemy while facing the dangerous demands of their own unruly
hearts.
