St. Augustine, Florida

Paris, France                                  

    Juliette’s life is a fairytale come true until a mysterious overseas letter arrives from a cousin whom she hadn’t met. In his letter, Claude Freedman exposes the truth about her engagement gift passed down through the ages, and a memoir written by her 4th great-grandfather and nobleman, Capt. Françoise J. Reiss III: A man with a nefarious past who lived during the colonial slave trade.

    When Juliette confronts her mother with Claude’s letter, Adrian insists the Freedman’s are ‘impostors’ and Children of the Alliance, the memoir “the captain” wrote, is a ‘literary forgery.’

    Defying her mother’s wish to forget about their family’s notorious past, Juliette sojourns to St. Augustine, Florida, to meet Mr. Freedman, and to pick up “the captain’s” memoir. However, while visiting the “Land of Flowers,” Juliette fears the Freedman descendants from “the captain’s” second marriage might be the rightful owners of her dowry.

Realizing the truth may not always mend broken hearts, but will turn heads, Juliette returns to Paris, France, where she hires a team of forensic scientists to investigate her heirloom dowry: The decoratively carved ebony chest of rare gemstones. Shocked by the team’s discovery and with INTERPOL on her tail, Juliette calls upon her trusted friends to help her until she can clear her family name…
