According to the official synopsis, Ava (Sipos), an art gallery manager, decides to take her honeymoon riverboat cruise alone after her wedding was canceled a year before. On the cruise, she meets Joe (Jeannotte), a handsome fellow passenger she finds intriguing.

Unbeknownst to her, Joe is concealing his identity as the Prince of Baldonia. Joe joined the cruise in the hope of finding art for an upcoming charity gala auction and taking time to decide if he really wants to be king. He is undercover on the cruise and does not want his royal identity revealed.

However, Ava and Joe bond over their mutual love for art and the pair start exploring the streets of Germany, Austria and Hungary, gathering art from the various palaces for the gala auction.

Meanwhile, despite Ava’s trust issues and Joe’s secret identity, they develop a romantic spark between them. When the cruise is almost over, Ava finds out the truth when images of herself and Joe end up on the cover of a tabloid.

Despite her initial anger, Ava agrees to attend the gala. Moreover, Joe stays true to himself by abdicating the throne to his younger brother, allowing him to focus on his romance with Ava and their plans to open a national gallery in Baldonia to showcase the country’s beautiful art.
