Juliette Lombardo lives the absolute definition of a carefree life. 

Living off of a hefty inheritance from her ultra-wealthy and connected father in Venice far away from the eyes of her father and her eight brothers while working as a waitress and bartender for fun, she's the very definition of under the radar. After all, nobody would assume the girl willingly working a busy bar on a Saturday night would be the daughter of one of Italy's richest and most powerful men. 

That carefree life comes complete with her best friend who lives next door, an apartment looking over the canals of Venice, and a steady fling with Logan, a second-born prince of a small island country whose favorite hobby is whisking her away to private islands and the most exclusive clubs and resorts in all of Europe. 

Her entire life turns on its side when Logan makes an unexpected visit to Venice to break the news to her that this will be their final weekend to be together after his brother abdicated his place in line for the thrown and he will have to spend the summer participating in a rather old fashioned social season event where women from all around his country compete to be his wife. 

After a whirlwind of 48 hours with Logan, Juliette is convinced by his best friend and bodyguard, Blake, to return to the family she ran away from and enter the contest. 

It doesn't take long for Juliette to realize that despite the ballgowns, tiaras, crowns and titles, life in Meldeva, and the contest, definitely is not a fairytale.
