My Review:

A perfect fairy tale. 


Alma's new king, Juan Carlos Salazar II knew hard work would get him ahead in life, but he never knew his true destiny was to be a king.  He would be honoring his aunt Isabella's wishes by restoring the monarchy.  During his coronation, Juan Carlos sees a beautiful lady who winks at him as he passes her. He has to meet her.

Princess Portia Lindstrom of Samforstand was attracted to Juan Carlos but she knew better than to get involved with another high profile man after her last relationship ended badly.  A king was definitely out of the question.  Still, she couldn't stop thinking about him.

When Juan Carlos finds out Portia is an art advisor, he asks for her help finding the artwork that his ancestors had hidden before the war.  That's when their attraction grew stronger and they soon find themselves in love

During wedding planning Portia discovers a secret about her past which could destroy everything between her and Juan Carlos.  Will they be able to work through this new discovery?

I really enjoyed this story. There were many surprises in it and my heart broke for Portia when she found out the truth about her past.   I couldn’t have asked for a better ending.
