Maria lives a charmed life as a duke’s daughter—until her father is forced from his position in a coup d’état, and she loses everything! Now in hiding with her kid sister and her trusty lady-in-waiting at her side, Maria vows to secure safe passage into the nearby kingdom of Angelique. As luck would have it, a large trading company led by Angelique’s Count Holden is hiring...but Maria must disguise herself as a man to work for them! This is the story of a proud girl who fights with everything she has to protect the ones she loves—and the origins of a legendary seductress.
