In the summer of 1943, the King and Queen choose to quietly send their youngest daughter, Princess Charlotte, to live with a trusted noble family in the country. Despite her fiery nature, the princess's fragile health poses far too great a risk for her to remain with her family in London. Seventeen-year-old Charlotte soon settles comfortably into a private life, befriending a young evacuee and training with her cherished horse. But no one predicts that she will fall deeply in love with her protectors' son. A fascinating story of family and royalty.
