The guest list is elite, the cake is five tiers high, and the Count is standing at the altar alone. Matteo Korbel’s bride has vanished, leaving him with a choice: face a scandal that will ruin his family, or find a replacement. Sheena Marceau was only there to deliver a painting, a chef’s daughter who spent her life observing the elite from the kitchen. Now, she’s being asked to step into a designer gown and say “I do” to a man who has always been a forbidden dream. They are from two different worlds, and the secret of their wedding night is a weight that could break them both.
