1752 Spain. Unexpected plans. A fight for the royal family.

And secrets unearthed beneath a canopy of orange blossoms.

Graciana Lucca must flee her beloved home in search of protection from an unwanted suitor. Escaping to Sevilla, she is surprised to obtain a role as one of the tutors to the royal children of Prince Carlos and Princess Amalia. Yet her peaceful respite is short-lived when she becomes ensnared in the dangerous schemes of a devious duke.

As a member of the king’s secret service, Francisco Torres is placed within the prince’s court under the guise of a tutor to investigate threats against the royal family. His suspicions linger on the mysterious lady who arrived from the north. Is she somehow linked to the strange occurrences within the kingdom?

To protect the royal family, Graciana and Francisco must step out in faith to work together and undercover truth while fighting the blossoming feelings between them. Will they succeed in stopping the duke—or lose their hearts and lives in the fray?
