After her father, Vladimir, was brutally murdered by Queen Azra's royal guards, Marietta Covici is forced to wed the most ruthless man in all of Marsonia, Lord Blackwell, an angry and vicious drunk known to spare no mercy. But there's just one problem. Marietta is in love with someone else, Lord Cross, Blackwell's brother. When Queen Azra discovers Marietta's deadly secret and adulterous infidelity, she banishes her from her hometown and befalls a curse upon Marietta's first-born child.
Her beloved, Lord Cross, uncovers who she really is and tears apart her life forever. Twenty-five years later, with a face that no one could ever love and the help of Cross' only son, can Aura look past her rage toward her mother's selfishness and the royal family to break the curse? Can Marietta and Cross' love survive the banishment and betrayal? Or will the mother-daughter duo fall to the same fate as Vladimir Covici?
