The Anti-Cinderella

No glass slippers. No pumpkin carriages. Just one ordinary girl and the prince who never forgot her.

My first kiss? With a British prince. No big deal—just a magical teenage moment I filed away and forgot... until ten years later, when fate (and meddling grandparents) threw us back together.

Now, I'm the girl the world wants to turn into a fairytale. Cameras stalk my every move, friends treat me like a stranger, and the press has already crowned me the next royal bride.

But I'm no Cinderella. I prefer sneakers to glass slippers and garden gloves to white gloves. And while Prince Nicky is everything—gorgeous, grounded, and hopelessly in love with me—forever with him means a crown-shaped complication.

Because being with the man I love might mean losing the life I know. Am I brave enough to rewrite the royal rulebook?
