Description

A looming crisis. A romance veiled in lies. An uncertain future.

Despite Jubelian's grand plans, her "relationship" with Max did not deter her father's alleged schemes for her marriage. In addition, she had unwittingly attracted the attention of the man who might cause her demise.

Scrambling as she is to avoid her doom, Jubelian remains unaware that Max is none other than the very man she fears. While Max is desperate to reveal himself as Prince Maximillian, he must first fix her impression of his royal identity. His methods, however, might only cause more trouble.

As the coronation ceremony draws nearer, tensions rise and stakes get higher. The chessboard is set, and the pieces are already in motion. The Empire is festering with power struggles and political turmoil, and Jubelian is caught in the chaos. In this treacherous realm of royalty, Jubelian must tread carefully, lest a misstep lead to a deadly fall.

In a game of love and power, the stakes are as high as the rules are deadly.
