{PART 1 COMPLETE; PART 2 COMING SOON} It's hard to be a royal. It's not terrible, though, if you're a female middle child in a small liberal Nordic country with an agnatic seniority monarchy. Kajsa Larsson, a.k.a. Princess Catherine Ulrika Isabella Sophia Gunilla of Ensammaberg, Duchess of Dvärgstad, leads a peaceful and rewarding life, working as an illustrator in a large publishing house in London. Her hobbies include hanging out with her five close friends, half-heartedly hiding her true identity, yoga, tennis - and pining over her oblivious coworker Danny Carter, the Head of the publishing house's IT Department. If he doesn't seem to notice her interest, and she's too respectful and well-mannered to push harder, will they ever get together? Also, if they do, it's not like she's going to inherit the throne, and he has to face the question of possibly becoming a Prince Consort, right?
