Two young women risk it all for adventure and romance.

1886. Charlotte Gleason embarks from England with conflicting emotions. She is headed to New York City to marry one of America's wealthiest heirs-a man she has never even met.

When her doubts gain the upper hand, she swaps identities with her maid Dora. Charlotte wants a chance at "real life," even if it means giving up financial security. It's a risk she's willing to take.

But what begins as the whim of a spoiled rich girl becomes a test of survival beyond her blackest nightmare.

For the maid, Dora, it's the chance of a lifetime. She is thrust into a fairy tale life amid ball gowns and lavish mansions, yet she is tormented by the possibility of discovery. And what of the man who believes she is his intended? Can they find happiness sharing a life based on a lie?
