To the watching world, Princess Alina has it all-maids to serve her, a kingdom to revere her, a prince to marry her, and a wardrobe filled with enough frills, flounces, and shades of pink to rival a flower shop. But behind the smiles and designer clothes, Alina has a secret. She's barely holding it together.
After a moment of panic almost ends in tragedy, Alina is sent to a refuge far from the palace to recuperate. Her family claims it's for her own good but-faced with cows, knife-beaked ducks, and far too many of her own insecurities-Alina is pretty sure it will kill her first. And Joha Samson, infuriating man that he is, will laugh as it does.
Only there's more to Joha than she realizes, and more to herself too. When the time comes to make a stand, will she find the courage?
