She’s risen from the ashes of heartbreak… No-nonsense single mom Cinda Brown is not looking for Prince Charming. The last time she fell for a handsome, sophisticated, wealthy guy, he left her at the worst possible time without a look backward or even a word of explanation. He did leave her with a lovely parting gift, though… which arrived nine months later.

Her high society clients expect their Newport, Rhode Island mansions to be sparkling—on schedule—come hell, high water, or hurricane. So when a flu epidemic sweeps through her agency the day before the royal family of Aubernesse is to arrive in Newport, Cinda puts on a uniform and picks up the slack, working furiously to make sure their gorgeous vacation home is immaculate and ready for the elaborate ball they’re planning to throw.

But this trip is non-negotiable, a matter of duty. He’s planning to fly in, attend the ridiculous ball his mother is so insistent upon, then get back to his life in Europe as quickly as possible. That is until he arrives at the family estate early and catches the cleaning crew still at work. And gets a look at the woman beneath that coating of dust, ash, and spiderwebs…
