And the future plans? Perfect.

Until he vanished.
When he stops answering her calls and texts, Annie flies across the country, terrified. She finds him … but he’s not the man she knows. Not anymore.

Loving him means risking her life every time he breathes her in.
Their marriage survived everything…Can it survive this?

Jess doesn’t do fairy tales. She watched her best friend fall for a prince and move across an ocean, and she’s genuinely thrilled for Claire. But that kind of story isn’t for her.
She came to Valdoria as a maid of honor, expecting two weeks of wedding logistics and royal small talk. She didn’t expect Henrik.
The crown prince is insufferable. Polished, proper, and irritatingly perceptive. He sees through every deflection Jess has spent years perfecting. Worse, he matches her. But when the masks finally begin to slip, Jess discovers a man who is just as guarded as she is underneath the royal composure. Just as afraid of wanting something real.
Henrik has spent his life making peace with a lonely, appropriate duty. Jess has spent hers running from the “consuming kind” of love. Now, they have to decide if the walls they’ve built to stay safe are worth the price of staying alone.
Some fairytales are hallucinations in limestone. This one is the kind where two messed up people learn to choose each other, and themselves.
