Aria Arden: London-based paramedic, who one day manages to save Hollywood heartthrob Wesley Beau by sticking a pen in his chest on an alley floor. She doesn't expect him to flirt with her for it - or for her to like it so much.
Elisabet van Astor: also known lovingly as 'Princess Lissa' in her homeland of Denmark, the eldest daughter to the House of van Astor, a European royal superpower. When the English crown falls into question, Elisabet finds herself at the heart of a (secret) political hurricane... Alongside the international nobility's token rebel, the disinherited Ritchie McGregor - or, as he was once known, Prince Richard of the rival House Gregory.
So what are two girls to do when the King is dead, the continent is crumbling and mobs of screaming fangirls are chasing after both patient and rumours?
Well, it wouldn't matter, really - if Aria Arden and Elisabet van Astor weren't the same person.

How to Annoy Your Fiancé (and Still Look Fabulous)
Their engagement was written before either of them learned to spell the word commitment. A promise between two powerful families: the Astorés and the D'Ardens - one built on legacy, money, and a total lack of consent from the actual bride. Marisse Astoré never asked to be anyone's future wife. Especially not to him - Lucan D'Arden, the older, colder, ridiculously composed man she was technically promised to since childhood. He's thirty-something, emotionally constipated, and looks like he was carved out of marble by someone who hates fun. She barely remembers him, which, frankly, is her favorite thing about him. But then her twentieth birthday arrives with the kind of "surprise" only rich parents can afford: She's being shipped off to Halberd City for university... and, oh yes, she'll be living with her fiancé. In his house. Under his rules. With his perfect jawline and annoyingly calm voice that somehow makes her want to scream and throw things. Lucan D'Arden, on the other hand, expected his fiancée to be a polite inconvenience - something he could quietly ignore while continuing his perfectly controlled, emotionally frostbitten existence. But then Marisse walks in with her sarcasm, her chaos, and her habit of calling him "old man" before breakfast. Suddenly, his orderly world has a heartbeat... and it's loud. But when Marisse discovers his oh-so-well-hidden secret - a forbidden affair with another woman - she doesn't break down. She grins. Because if life gives you betrayal, you turn it into leverage. Now, what was supposed to be a dignified engagement has turned into a psychological rom-com warzone. He wants restraint. She wants revenge (and maybe another cup of his expensive coffee). Between stolen glances, biting words, and way too much tension for two people "not in love," one thing becomes painfully clear: Someone's about to lose control. And it definitely won't be her.

Isabella couldn't understand why Milo, the sole heir to the Kingham family fortune, had chosen her to marry. Milo had agreed to his parents' marriage plans to protect Sienna, a woman six years older than him, whom he had been secretly dating since his teenage years. He had struck a deal with Isa to marry her, allowing him to maintain his relationship with Sienna. Isa, who had never considered marriage as an option, ultimately consented to the deal. She was unbothered by the fact that their relationship would lack the intimacy of a normal marriage, or that Milo's attention would be focused on his long-distance lover. Isa found herself in a delicate situation, forced to conceal the love that had unwittingly blossomed by the third year of their marriage. This became particularly challenging when Sienna arrived to assert her rightful place as Milo's real partner. ⛔ CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT (RATED R /21+) PLEASE BE A WISE READER 🚫 Don't copy this story as yours.
