Prince Magnus, first of his name, comes from the royal family of Aurelion, a kingdom that has been ruled by queens for generations. He is the second-born son of Queen Helena VII and her steadfast consort, King Edmund. Though he was born just moments after his twin sister, Princess Magnolia, Magnus is not the heir. In Aurelion, the crown always passes to daughters, as the royal belief is: "Women lead with wisdom; men with pride."
To the people of Aurelion, the royal family appears perfect-united, strong, and loving. But behind the palace walls, things are far from perfect. The family is torn apart by jealousy, anger, and betrayal. Many of their relatives secretly plot to take the throne, even if it means murder. To them, power is more important than family loyalty.
Magnus has always been seen as less important than his sister, but he has always been loyal to his family and their legacy. When a deadly plot succeeds in killing Queen Helena, King Edmund, and his sister, Magnolia, Magnus is left with no choice. With everything he cares about taken from him, he must act quickly to protect the kingdom.
To avenge his family and secure the throne, Magnus makes a difficult choice-he steals his sister's identity. He disguises himself as his sister and takes on the role of queen. But pretending to be a woman comes with challenges. As he steps into the dangerous world of politics, Magnus must hide his true self, even if it means marrying a MAN.
How far will he go to get the justice he wants while living a lie? Can he succeed in his quest for revenge, or will the burden of pretending break him?
