Acerca deste livro eletrónico
Paris, 1795. Marie Thérèse Charlotte de Bourbon lives locked up between the walls of the Temple Tower, imprisoned by the French revolutionaries. She has seen all her relatives die, one after the other, and has been subjected to the most terrible humiliation: rape; she fears there's no way out for her when she is offered her freedom, in exchange for twelve prisoners of war.
On the same evening, while he's spending his time gambling and in the company of prostitutes, Leonardus Cornelius Van der Valck is visited by an Austrian nobleman who makes him an offer he cannot refuse: the Emperor himself has asked him to take his cousin, and sole survivor of the French royal family, under his custody. But there's a problem: the attractive and cunning libertine will have to marry the girl, who was made pregnant during her captivity.
Will such badly mismatched persons manage to trust each other? And will Charlotte be able to leave behind the trauma to which she was subjected and open up her heart to true love? Burning passions, rape, identity swaps and political intrigue follow one after the other, bringing to life a novel in which love and courage keep the reader company, page after page.
