Synopsis
Abused noble daughter Marie unexpectedly becomes engaged to Count Kyros, discovering her worth and love.
The Shaderan family has fallen on hard times, and the avaricious and callous baron and baroness will stop at nothing to regain status. They favor their beautiful daughter Anastasia, hoping to marry her into wealth, while they treat the second daughter, Marie, no better than a servant. Years of abuse have convinced Marie that she is truly undeserving of love and attention. When Marie unexpectedly crosses paths with Count Kyros Granado, he is immediately charmed by her gentle spirit and her surprising knowledge of his culture. Through a misunderstanding, Marie finds herself thrust into an engagement with the count, stepping into a world far removed from her life of servitude. As Marie navigates her new circumstances, Kyros sees through her lack of confidence to the person she truly is, helping her discover her own worth and what it means to be cherished for who she really is.
