But when Morgan, the handsome son of a prominent family, sweeps her into his glamorous world—a world in which the truth about Adalia's heritage would ruin them both—suspicions and petty jealousies are aroused. What will Morgan do when he discovers that the woman he has fallen in love with is a runaway slave?
