Just eighteen, beautiful and intelligent, Yola Beauharnais lives a
blessed Fairy tale life at her magnificent family castle on the
Loire. Then her grandmother announces that she has been promised in
marriage by her late beloved father to the Marquis de Montereau.
Yola is appalled. She has heard of the Marquis, who, although
handsome and sophisticated, has a reputation in Paris as a rake,
socialite and 'ladykiller'. How could she possibly marry such a
man, one who wants her only for her castle and the extensive
estate? Determined to marry only for true love, wherever she may
find it, Yola is helped by her father's mistress and travels
'undercover' to Paris in the guise of a woman of questionable
morals to meet the notorious Marquis and find out for herself
whether he might fall in love with her as herself and for herself
only. Or whether she must betray her father's dying wish and refuse
her unwanted suitor. On meeting the Marquis in her disguise, Yola
finds that there is much more to him than his reputation suggests
and, as love blossoms between them, she comes to bitterly regret
her deception. Will she really find her true love or will she be
condemned to live a life of disappointment and delusion as the
Sleeping Beauty of her enchanted castle?
