See link for Official Book Trailer! ~ When you wake up in a village on the seaside for Pirates, tied to a pole, having just figured out you had been kidnapped, while the man who caught you is trying to sell you for gold, things get complicated. Luckily, or maybe it's unfortunately, you're bought by a young, good-looking, modest Captain who knows EXACTLY who you are. But what he's going to do with that knowledge, you're not so sure. ~ You, my friend, I am proud to pronounce as the Princess of Etholira. You are currently sixteen. And you get pretty much anything you want. And you're the prettiest girl in Etholira. Sounds pretty nice, right? Well, we need something for a story. So, sorry to break it to you, but your Dad, the King, is a bit of a jerk. You're betrothed to an ugly, inconsiderate asswipe. You hate being a princess. Oh, and you've just been captured by pirates. ~ Written: mid-High School 2017 Last Edited: mid-college 2021 Rated: PG13 for sexual references and violence (contains no sexual scenes, cussing is censored)

Being a Queen was considered everything to my four outrageous cousins. I for one do not care, I never want to be a ruling monarch. Never. The Princess Project was a ritual that my country had been doing for decades. The government of Amaren would choose one descendant of the five royal lineages and make her the project of the country. The Princess would be expected to marry the chosen prince of the country. Of course this sounds like either the best contest you have heard of, or the worst. I personally agree with the civilians who despise it. This short story contains 10 chapters, and was entered in the #OnceUponNow contest sponsored by Target!
