'Exactly what I needed right now – a delightful, heart-warming,
hilarious historical romp, overflowing with queer panic and
terrible jokes. I loved it' - ALICE OSEMAN, bestselling author of
HEARTSTOPPER 'Fun and genuinely funny, with lovely friendships and
first-rate dialogue. Gwen and Art may not be in love, but I fell
for them both' - RAINBOW ROWELL, No. 1 New York Times bestselling
author of the SIMON SNOW Trilogy _______________ Gwen, the
quick-witted Princess of England, and Arthur, future lord and
general gadabout, have been betrothed since birth. Unfortunately,
the only thing they can agree on is that they hate each other. When
Gwen catches Art kissing a boy and Art discovers where Gwen hides
her diary (complete with racy entries about Bridget Leclair, the
kingdom's only female knight), they become reluctant allies. By
pretending to fall for each other, their mutual protection will be
assured. But how long can they keep up the ruse? With Gwen growing
closer to Bridget, and Art becoming unaccountably fond of Gabriel,
Gwen's infuriatingly serious, bookish brother, the path to true
love is looking far from straight ... _______________ 'A total,
rollicking delight ... Lex Croucher is one of my favorite romcom
authors, and they should be yours, too.' - CASEY MCQUISTON, #1 New
York Times bestselling author of I KISSED SHARA WHEELER and RED,

permanent acquisition of my ENTIRE heart. Suffice it to say that I
