    Summary

    The seconds feel like they’ve become minutes—Riku feels like he’s lagging behind when the prince quickly separates, grabbing Riku’s hand before stepping a safe distance away. The audience erupts into polite applause, a couple of raucous cheers here and there, perhaps from some guests who’d already had too much to drink. But Riku’s world has narrowed to a phantom kiss burning his lips and a sweaty palm on his own.

    Remember who you are.

    Riku doesn’t know anymore. He is Maeda Riku. He is Maeda Aeri. He is the princess, and he is now married. He is the wife of Prince Oh Sion.

    No. I am the hero who will save my kingdom. I am the villain who will destroy his.

    Or, to protect his family and his people, Prince Riku volunteers for an impossible mission: disguise himself as his sister, marry the heir to the neighboring kingdom, and expose whatever the Mahan Court is hiding.

    Living a life that has never truly been his own, Crown Prince Sion expects nothing more than another carefully orchestrated engagement.

    Enemies by circumstance, lovers by mistake.
