Camilla Evergreen is the best thief in a kingdom of honourable, corset wearing, gossiping young ladies and Carson Knight is the Prince, the owner of every one of these girls' hearts.
Every day since she was a little girl, Camilla has dreamed of a day when she wouldn't have to steal to keep her and her sister alive, but life in the slums has always been tough, and she's had to put her dreams on hold to take care of her younger sister, Beatrice.
When she's chosen to compete for the Prince's hand in marriage in a selection, she's shocked - and more than a little skeptical. After all, what could a commoner like her possibly have in common with a Prince?
But as she gets to know the Prince, she realizes that they have more in common than she ever could have imagined. They share a love of good food, a sense of humor, and a deep appreciation for the simple things in life. As she falls deeper in love with the Prince, Camilla must navigate the treacherous waters of court politics, royal expectations and corsets. But with her head held high and her heart full of love, she's ready to take on anything that comes her way - and to prove that sometimes, the greatest love stories are the ones you never saw coming.
Sparks fly when Camilla finds Carson in her home village not once but twice and both of their thoughts are filled with the other for the preceding days leading up to the selection.
