I never imagined my first trip to Italy would be to bury my father. But there I was in the beautiful cathedral, alone, with my father’s casket and a handful of soldiers to keep me safe.
It didn’t occur to me that anyone would disrupt the sanctity of the church. Would march in, weapons in hand and turn my world upside down.
But the Caballero brothers have no regard for the church and even less for my family.
They destroyed the peace of that sad occasion.
They desecrated my father’s body.
And they took what they wanted. Me.
I’m a princess in a tower in a breathtaking villa.
My bedroom overlooks the turquoise sea but the door is locked.
And I have to contend with not one but two dragons.
