Prince Varick Lyon is not well known because he is the next in line for the throne, but rather because of a jet black stain on the royal tapestry due to his bad decisions in the matters of  love and marriage. When he, his two brothers, and sister in law find themselves on the run from assassins they find themselves relying on an orphan farm girl to keep them safe. From the moment he almost ran her over with his horse Varick's family can tell the farm girl has a strong impact on him. While some in the family fear the farm girl is a threat worse than the assassins themselves, others feel she is the one that will restore the family tapestry.
