“So how was your date with Nikolai?”Becca glared at her brother, Dylan.“Uh-oh. Did he stand you up?” Dylan held a rolled-up magazine.She frowned, frustrated that she’d been so easily played. “Yeah, you could say that.”“This might explain why.” Dylan held the magazine under her face, forcing her to look at the glossy picture of a guy who looked exactly like Nikolai.She took the magazine and examined it closer. Her breath caught in her throat. “That’s Nikolai!”She’d recognize him anywhere. She couldn’t read the foreign headline, but it ended with an exclamation point. “Dylan, where did you find this?”He grimaced and shrugged. “It was at every newspaper stand I saw today.”“Why is he on the cover? Did he do something wrong?” She paged through the magazine, holding her breath. Confusion turned to shock when she saw a two-page spread filled with pictures of Nikolai.Nikolai at the beach; a picture of him playing polo; a picture of him in a tuxedo with a girl wearing a glittering gown. Then Becca’s eyes landed on a formal picture of Nikolai in uniform, with a sword at his belt, standing next to a young girl. A stern man and austere woman sat in gilded chairs; both adults wore crowns.Her jaw dropped open.“Why is Nikolai in that picture with people wearing crowns? Who is he?” she asked. Her heart pumped so fast she could feel the blood pulse through her temples. “And why did he lie about his identity?”
