In the glittering world of Monaco's elite, Daphné Arnault seems to have it all-wealth, status, and a picture-perfect life. But beneath the surface, she's suffocating under the weight of family expectations and a fake relationship with a royal prince to keep the media at bay.
Then there's Riley, a psychology student and drummer in a rising band. He's the opposite of everything Daphné's family wants for her-free-spirited, grounded, and completely uninterested in the world of high society. With him, Daphné finds a sense of freedom she's never known before, but loving him means stepping away from the life she's always known.
As Daphné wrestles with her feelings for Riley and the pressures of her aristocratic family, a web of secrets and scandals begins to unravel. Caught between loyalty to her family and her desire for a life of her own, she faces a choice that could change everything.
With romance, drama, and the pulse of Riley's music guiding them through, can Daphné and Riley navigate a world of royal intrigue and find a love that's truly theirs?
New chapters will be uploaded every Monday and Friday, with the final chapter releasing on October 2nd.
