Loosely inspired by the fairy tale of Cinderella, Not Your Princess plays on the scenario where neither the prince nor the future princess attends the ball. Aschleigh Baker did not have a fairy godmother to rescue her when she was prohibited from attending the prince's engagement ball. No one was there to wave a magic wand and right all of the wrongs done unto her. Instead, she ended up going to the town's tavern to miserably celebrate her last night of freedom before she is forced into marrying her family's blackmailer, who knows about her secret imperviousness to fire. Prince Augustus never wanted to be forced into an arranged marriage with a stranger. Thus, on the night of his engagement ball, he finds himself visiting the nearest town's tavern to live one more day of freedom. There, he meets Asch and finds himself enchanted by her from the moment they first meet. Neither one of them was aware that missing the ball would lead to an accidental, irreversible marriage. Nor could they expect a person calling themselves the Priestess to set their sights on the new princess, intending to kill her for sins Asch is not aware of. As secrets are revealed and characters called into question, the accidental couple must learn to navigate the world with one another or risk losing more than memories of their wedding.
