Princess Mandy had always dreamed of a fulfilling life beyond the governor's mansion, a life free from the confines of her arranged marriage to either the charming but overbearing Prince or the filthy rich but deceiving other Prince. That is, until the Former First Sergeant Saint came into her life-a stoic and devoted bodyguard with a secret, dark past. With the impending nuptials looming like a storm cloud, she hatched a daring escape plan.
However, fate had other plans for her. Captured by a group of ruthless mercenaries, Mandy's future grew darker by the minute. In a desperate attempt to protect the princess, Max declared Mandy his wife-a web of lies that could erupt at any moment.
Max is a man on a mission, training relentlessly for a job that could secure Mandy's future. With each passing day, their fake marriage grows more complex, their connection goes deeper, and the line between duty and desire becomes increasingly blurred.
As danger looms and the truth threatens to surface, Mandy and Max find themselves in a race against time, navigating a treacherous path of deception, love, and sacrifice. Can they outwit their way out and build a future together, or will the secrets they harbour tear them apart forever?
Join Mandy and Max on an enthralling journey where a fake marriage may just lead to an entanglement neither of them saw coming-a love worth fighting for.
