A Royal Romance Across Two Timelines

Olivia Garza is committed to making a difference in the world. By day, she helps troubled teens in inner-city Little Rock; by night, she creates a viral docu-series retracing her mother's steps in an attempt to understand her mother's desperate decisions. So far, Olivia has always been the anonymous narrator—but she has promised to reveal herself in the last stop on her documentary: Kenya.

Prince Louis, heir to the throne of the small European kingdom of Alloria, is in Kenya to run away from a broken heart—and the media circus that comes with it. When he meets Olivia, he recognizes her voice right away from the docu-series that has stirred his heart. Though they share a magical day on safari, any dreams of happily ever after come crashing down with the flash of the paparazzi cameras when Olivia realizes that he represents everything she most despises in the world.

In World War II Rome, another royal faces her own life-changing choices. Princess Alessandra Appiani could have chosen quiet safety within the walls of the Vatican, but instead she risks her life—and her family—to save the Jewish children so in need of someone to show them the love of God.

When Olivia is hired to help create a documentary about Alessandra, learning about the sacrifice of a royal who goes from palace to prison forces her to face the hardest questions of all: Should she continue on the path she has carved for herself, or trust God to give her the future she never thought she wanted?
