Every kingdom has a perfect princess.

Beautiful.
Graceful.
Beloved.

At least... that's the lie everyone believes.

Behind jeweled crowns and dazzling smiles, the royal family is built on carefully buried secrets. Every lesson, every ball, every smile is another performance in a kingdom where perfection is demanded—and failure comes with a price.

When one unexpected discovery threatens to unravel everything, a princess must decide whether to protect the crown she's spent her life earning or expose the truth that could bring the kingdom to its knees.

Because some lies keep a kingdom alive.

But some truths are worth destroying it for.

In a palace where trust is dangerous and every smile hides another secret, surviving may be the greatest fairy tale of all.
