A dashing prince and his former crush go from fake engagement to real feelings in this friends-to-lovers tale fit for royalty, from bestselling author Sara Bennett. Perfect for fans of USA Today bestsellers Evie Dunmore and Manda Collins!
Prince Nikolai of Holtswig has journeyed to London with one purpose: stay out of trouble until the unrest in his country dies down. But after an assassination attempt at the season’s first ball, he has no choice but to accept a deal from the British government. They will offer him protection ... if he gets engaged to a proper Englishwoman. Niki isn’t interested—until they suggest his childhood friend, Lady Roberta Ashton.
Lady Roberta couldn’t help being a bit infatuated with Niki in the summers they spent together all those years ago. Faking an engagement would definitely liven up the season—but there's a difference between lively and deadly. As the threats increase along with their attraction, Roberta and Niki must learn to trust each other to protect themselves—and their hearts.
