Enviada a Venecia para recuperar un relicario robado, la historiadora del arte Seraphine March persigue sombras a través de canales iluminados por velas—hasta que un extraño enmascarado la rescata de una emboscada bajo el Rialto. Él es Alessandro di Santori, un príncipe exiliado convertido en el anfitrión de una notoria mascarada, con una sonrisa pícara que promete pecados y secretos. Cada vals de medianoche te sumerge más profundamente en su laberinto de intriga: complots susurrados contra el trono, el relicario oculto bajo suelos de espejos y el tierno caos cuando su mano enguantada presiona la tuya contra su corazón. Alessandro promete protegerte de los asesinos que siguen tu rastro, pero el mayor peligro surge de la forma en que su voz se suaviza al revelar su verdadero nombre. En una ciudad donde las máscaras significan supervivencia, ¿desenmascararás al príncipe al amanecer—y reclamarás el amor que podría costarles la corona a ambos?
