Vivian DeRose is broke, newly fired, and desperate to keep her uncle in the care home he needs.

Then a dangerously handsome stranger offers her a fortune for a few weeks of secret work: travel to the European kingdom of Bellèno, impersonate a wealthy aristocrat, and keep the crown prince interested until the real Lady Catherine returns.

There is only one problem.

Prince Maximillian Rochartè - the charming royal who recruited her - is far more tempting than the man she is supposed to deceive.

When the crown prince unexpectedly proposes, Vivian becomes trapped in an engagement meant for another woman while secretly falling for his brother. With the press watching and the monarchy depending on her performance, revealing the truth could destroy them all.

But pretending to love one prince may cost her the heart of another.

This work was previously published as The Prince's Playbook by Pamela DuMond.

A broke Chicago waitress is hired to impersonate an aristocrat and charm a crown prince, but soon finds herself engaged to one royal and falling for his dangerously seductive brother.
