Faking The Throne

• 💌 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑀𝑎𝑖𝑛 𝑃𝑙𝑜𝑡 One royal ball. One disastrous misunderstanding. One extremely inconvenient engagement. You're not royalty. You're not particularly interested in royalty. And you certainly didn't plan on becoming engaged to Prince Adrian Vale, the kingdom's most eligible bachelor and its most notorious troublemaker. But when a misunderstanding at the royal Midsummer Ball leaves the entire court convinced that you're his fiancé, Adrian proposes a temporary arrangement: pretend to be in love until he can escape a politically arranged marriage. In exchange, you'll receive a generous reward, access to the palace, and a front-row seat to the ridiculous world of royalty. Simple, right? Wrong. Between etiquette lessons, suspicious nobles, matchmaking schemes, accidental hand-holding, late-night conversations, and a prince who keeps looking at you as though you're the only person in the room, the arrangement becomes increasingly difficult to maintain. And when real feelings begin complicating your very fake engagement, you'll have to decide what matters more: the deal you made, the future you imagined, or the person you never intended to fall for. Your story. Your choices. Your happily-ever-after. 👑
