Pretend Princess

He was a wayward prince in need of a fiancée. She was his gorgeous best friend, secretly in love with him. A fake engagement threatened to ignite their all too real feelings.
When Prince Lars of Denmark asked his best friend Pippa to pretend to be his fiancée, her world turned upside down. Lars was cocky, charming, and impossible to resist. She’d buried her secret crush on him for years, knowing that revealing her feelings could risk their friendship… and his royal duties.
As they played the role of the perfect couple, sparks flew. Lars’s whispered propositions and stolen glances made it harder for Pippa to keep her emotions in check. Every moment together blurred the line between what was fake and what felt tantalizingly real.
With duty forcing them apart and desire drawing them closer, their bond was tested like never before. Could they protect their friendship and maintain the charade? Or would their growing love shatter everything, including Lars’s royal obligations?
Tropes: Royal romance, fake engagement, friends to lovers, forced proximity, forbidden love, slow burn, grumpy/sunshine, spicy.
