Two Hearts in Hungary

the long version

This was to be lovely Lady Aletha Ling's first Season. Her father, the Duke of Buclington, knew full well that his cherished daughter's beauty wealth and rank would make her the innocent prey of fortune-hunters. He would protect her at all costs -- but an arranged marriage would cost Aletha her dreams... Desperately, she prayed to the gods of the heart and received a bold answer indeed! Only days later, under an assumed name and position, Aletha was in Hungary -- and in love. Prince Miklos Esterhazy was handsome, magnetic, and passionate... and so highborn that marriage with the gentle "commoner" Aletha was shatteringly impossible!
