"Wattys 2022 Grand Prize Winner"

Known as the most stubborn and troublemaker daughter of the De Avila family, nothing stops Socorro from pursuing her dreams and passion for writing. Despite living in the 19th century, she believes women can also do great things like men. Being the next daughter to be sent off to an arranged marriage like her older sisters, she's now determined to create her destiny and break every single custom of what a woman was taught to do. She earns money by writing love letters as a ghostwriter. Everything seems to work according to her plan until she meets a young nobleman who can catch her lies and make her feel the love she thought only exists in books.

["PLAY THE KING" IS ACT TWO OF THE "PLAY" SERIES. PLEASE READ "PLAY THE QUEEN" FIRST.] It's been four months since Priam Torres, the once unpopular president of the Elysian University Student Council, assumed office. Thanks to his chief-of-staff Castiel Seville's ingenuity and Fabienne Lucero's cooperation to play as his first lady, his approval ratings are up. Everything is looking good for him and the council, and reelection is now viable. However, Priam's presidency is at extreme risk as one of the college student council chairpersons will attempt to dethrone him and bring down his administration. It's now up to Castiel and Fabienne-along with their new ally-to prevent the worst case scenario from happening. Players will make moves and countermoves. Chess pieces will dance on the board. Kings will clash-and only one of them can wear the crown and sit in the coveted throne. The play resumes.
