PROLOGUE: ONCE UPON ANOTHER TIME

Once upon another time, there was a treacherously handsome, tuxedo-clad Prince, slinking through the waning hours of the Eve of Christmas Eve in a New York City Checker Cab. Next to him on the slippery tape-patched plastic bench seat, joined together at intertwined fingers, was an exquisitely stunning Princess, dressed in a royal blue ball gown that would make any Oscar-nominated actress weep with envy.
She's made a series of monumental decisions tonight, any one of which would be fair cause for reconsideration; the heart-wrenching breakup with her longstanding boyfriend; the surrender to undeniable longings toward the man seated to her right; the terrifying conclusion that her darkest desires can no longer be subdued.
Though perhaps not as obvious, he's risked everything as well. Because this time, for the first time ever, his heart is on the line.
