Beneath the ruffles and frills of a demure woman, Valerian Romney is ingeniously disguised as his older brother Phelan’s “wife” in order to escape a wrongful murder charge. All is well until he meets the charming Sophie, who never expected to have feelings for a “woman.”

His brazen masquerade is not the only secret—the stable lad is actually Juliette, dressed in man’s clothes, trying to escape her abuser, and Valerian’s brother Phelan is totally smitten.

They are all caught in a swirling dance of mistaken identities, passion and danger, and it will take heroic measures to release the four of them from historic mess they’ve gotten themselves into.

An award-nominated romp of Shakespearean confusion.
