Scenario for Love

Set in Bucharest and London during the mid-1930s, this lavish love story between Andrei Velcu, a young man with a tangled family history, and Princess Cassandra Basarabi has the romantic perfume of an epoch of luxury and extravagance. Unofficially adopted by a famous lawyer, Andrei has a happy childhood and a promising adolescence while medical studies in London assure his security for a bright future. But the sudden death of his adoptive father and the avarice of his relatives suddenly cast him into poverty. When he crosses paths with Cassandra, it is the beginning of a curious story about a twentieth-century princess-still living within her ancestors' covenants and centuries-old marriage vows-and a progressive gentleman ready to give up everything for her. Andrei hopes his love is sufficient to vanquish the chains of an aristocracy that make Cassandra a prisoner amidst the winds of freedom blowing everywhere except the palace of her grandparents.This story of courage and passion journeys into a past that continues to fascinate us-a romance on the cusp of ancient traditions and twentieth century changes.Will the lovers succumb to family, prejudice, and a husband willing to kill? Or will their struggle succeed and allow them to follow their hearts?
