On the edge of the Romanian wilderness, one woman flees the secrets that haunt her lover...
When four London Seasons fail to find her a suitable match, Alcyone Carter does the unthinkable and treks across Europe to marry a foreign nobleman she’s never met. But on her wedding night, she discovers that her handsome, enigmatic husband is not the man he claims to be—and when a more sinister secret emerges, she escapes his estate into the darkness rather than live a lie with a man she feels she can never know.
Ignited by his desire and his pride, Dumitru Constantinescu, Count Severinor, risks everything to follow Alcy from the depths of the Romanian forests into the decadent heart of Istanbul. It is there that they will become unwilling pawns in a game that forces them to confront the sensual passion they’ve discovered—and the dire threat that could cost them their lives....
“The next great romance author has arrived.…If there is only one new author you will try this year, it must be Lydia Joyce.”—Lisa Kleypas
