A kidnapping of Lady Daffodil Alice leaves her running with child. Single mother sounds better than future crown princess anyway. Finding safety in Dukedom Recant has Daffodil living between worlds: hidden away from high society for multiple concerns while acting almost like the daughter in law of the house. For more than a decade, Daffodil has lived in relative peace. The Recants, though, are nearly eighty year olds and life is no longer kind to them.Will their son Edward reach the house before the old Recants pass away? What plans do the Recants have in place for Daffodil? If nothing else, she can just run again. Is running the best answer? It would be if Edward tries to set her before the crown prince again. She definitely does not want to relive any part of that past.
