Ophelia Broulliard’s life has always been linked to the
wealthy and powerful DuChamps family. The granddaughter of the family’s
housekeeper, she’s worshipped Vincent DuChamps from afar--the ever unattainable
prince in her fairy tale dreams. Little does she know that Vincent harbors his
own secret feelings for her, but other darker secrets that he sees as an
insurmountable obstacle to ever being the man she deserves, have prompted him
to avoid her altogether.
When Thomas, the family patriarch dies, his will bears some unpleasant surprises for them both. Thomas wants nothing more than for Vincent and his siblings to be happy, and in his final act as the only father figure they’ve ever had, engineers a series of contingencies in his will that require them each to face their demons. Only too aware of what Vincent really feels for Ophelia, Thomas creates a situation that will force Vincent to confront his feelings. Unless, Vincent and Ophelia marry, Vincent and his siblings will lose everything, including the family business.
Forced into such close proximity, denying their attraction for one another becomes impossible. But even as they grow closer, other threats to the future of DuChamps Hotels and all that Vincent holds dear threaten to destroy their burgeoning relationship. Ophelia has played it safe her whole life. Taking a risk on Vincent is a frightening prospect. Will it be worth it, or will his secrets break both their hearts?

A great start
to a new series that includes some light BDSM elements that only add to its
appeal. It’s touching, romantic, exciting, sensual and even a bit…magical. A
great escape for any fans of the genre to enjoy :)
Opelia has
known the DuChamps for a very long time and has had the hots for Vincent for
just as long. Knowing it’ll never happen because they’re from two completely
different worlds. She chose never to approach him with her feelings. But right
now fate and Thomas have different ideas and there’s no stopping either one!
Vincent DuChamps is a wealthy, successful and handsome many that holds deep secrets. Secrets that have scarred him deep. Knowing the choice that must be made to save his family’s business both is and is not torture. He knows Thomas always liked to meddle. But always did so within reasoning and with good intentions. Now he’s thinking he may have went a bit over board with it and is REALLY testing Vincent’s control.
