Duty calls this British prince back to London. Ambition keeps this pediatric surgeon in the states. Star-crossed lovers never last. Do they?

Anthony Scott didn't believe in much of anything. His painful past taught him to protect himself. Meeting her changed all that. Melody's nothing like the glittering socialites and upper-crust royals he's used to in London. She's a workaholic pediatric surgeon from a small town with a big heart and open smile. And he is utterly smitten.

But underneath, she's as guarded as him. Their frequent goodbyes and the constant loneliness is taking its toll. Anthony refuses to give up on a future with Melody, but even his billions and their thrilling times in the bedroom can't change the fact that they come from different worlds.

Long-distance relationships aren't supposed to have happy endings. But Anthony will do anything it takes to make both their dreams come true....
