Princess Y/N Valmont has always known that royal life comes with rules, duties, and sacrifices. But when her parents announce that she is to marry a foreign prince she has never met in order to secure peace between kingdoms, her future suddenly feels completely out of her control. At the same time, a new royal knight, Sir Rowan Hale, is assigned as her personal protector. Loyal, disciplined, and always at her side, Rowan quickly becomes someone she trusts more than anyone else in the palace.
