You've been cordially invited to celebrate with us Prince Jamie Amerton's 20th Birthday.
Jamie Amerton,
To the public, he is the future king of Amerton and the prince that all girls are crazy about.
But to Jamie's family, she is the wrong gender.
Confused?
Jamie is the only child of her parents, the king and queen, and the only acceptable heir to the throne of Amerton, but Amerton laws prohibit a woman from being in charge of the country. The king and queen decided to lie to the public and showcase Jamie off as a male.
The Kingdom of Amerton is celebrating Jamie's 20th birthday, and among hundreds of royally important guests, two very important guests visit from the neighboring Kingdom of Mahdin.
The royal twins, the beautiful Princess Layla who has been infatuated with Jamie from childhood and Prince Elias, who has hated Jamie from day one.
Prince Elias always felt like he was competing with Jamie, she was better at him in every sport they played against each other, girls loved him more, and so did Elias' parents, but Elias believes there's something off about Jamie and he will seek to find it.
What will happen if the truth comes out?
Ella is falling apart trying to live a "perfect" high school life. Then she meets Ren, who can see past her scars. Suddenly perfection isn't her only option.
