Imagine training your entire life to inherit a massive ducal estate, only for a newborn baby brother to pop out and completely derail your career plans. That is the hilarious predicament Maria finds herself in. Suddenly relieved of her heavy noble duties, she is hit with a harsh reality check: she needs to find a husband, and fast, or she is headed straight for a lifetime of spinsterhood. The only problem? Her home duchy is a total relationship desert, and every single eligible bachelor is already off the market.

Desperate times call for desperate measures, so Maria packs her bags and heads to the vibrant nation of Rubini for a crash course in matchmaking, with her distant relative Aida playing wingwoman. But just as she is ready to dip her toes into the dating pool, the local Crown Prince drops a massive, public bombshell. He is breaking off his engagement to Maria! There is just one tiny, mind-boggling detail: Maria has never even met the guy, let alone agreed to marry him.

What follows is a delightfully chaotic, laugh-out-loud fantasy romcom about a late-blooming villainess who has absolutely no idea what is going on, but is determined to find her happily ever after anyway. Perfect for fans of hilarious misunderstandings, gorgeous fantasy settings, and strong-willed heroines who refuse to let a ridiculous royal ruin their plans, this series is the ultimate feel-good read. Can Maria navigate this bizarre political mess and secure her dream husband, or will she be branded a villainess before she even gets a first date?
