Rosella Fitzherbert, the future Queen of Corona, dreams of seeing the world beyond palace walls. With magical golden hair, a kind heart, and a restless sense of adventure, she often escapes royal duties to ride through town and experience life as an ordinary person.
One afternoon, a simple trip to a bakery changes everything.
After accidentally crashing into a strange boy carrying a stack of books and inventions, Rosella finds herself intrigued. The boy is awkward, brilliant, and unlike anyone she has ever met. His name is Varian-a young alchemist whose mind is always racing with ideas and whose life couldn't be more different from hers.
At first, they're complete strangers.
Then they're unlikely friends.
And before either of them realizes it, they become something much more.
But when royal expectations, dangerous discoveries, and secrets from the kingdom's past threaten to pull them apart, Rosella must decide whether following her heart is worth risking the future she's always been told is hers.
A story about adventure, friendship, destiny, and a love that begins with a single accidental collision in a bakery.
