Blurb Draft:
Crown Princess Nora Toscani receives a text message from her former flat mate from uni. She agrees to to meet him in London, fully expecting a casual chat over coffee. In the two years since graduation, Lucas Malcolm has been living an exciting life abroad, digging up dinosaur bones.
Instead, Lucas asks her for help in figuring out how to convince his father, the Duke of Trent, to let him dart off to Australia for the next three years to pursue a PhD in paleontology.
After bouncing several ideas off one another, Nora concludes that there is only one way for his scheme to work—if they become a fake engaged couple. What could possibly go wrong?
Over five years, Nora and Lucas find out that being a fake couple is not as easy as either of them ever imagined, especially when it starts to feel real. Can they change the rules and make it work?
This sweet romance is the second book in the Royals of Isola Nostrum but can be read as a standalone novel.
