Zaysh the Crown Prince

Zaysh was never meant to rule.

Sent to the Princes' School against his will, exiled from his freedom and his desires, he returns home after three years only to discover that his brother has married into a powerful kingdom and gained the upper hand in the race for the throne.

The solution standing before him seems to be a marriage with a princess of even greater political weight. Before surrendering to this new duty, Zaysh plans one final week of unrestrained freedom—a sex-filled escape before everything changes. What he doesn't expect is the woman who bangs on his hotel room door and demands he stop having sex.

Ayoka knows heartbreak all too well. Betrayed and humiliated, she flees to Maputo in search of peace and anonymity… only to get caught up with a stranger who turns out to be anything but ordinary. Their meeting is chaotic. Their chemistry is instant and electric.

When duty draws them back into each other's orbit under masks and royal titles, a fake marriage becomes the perfect solution—for the throne, for appearances, and for the past they both want to escape. As emotions rise and old wounds resurface, the hardest rules to follow are the ones they set themselves:

No touching. No kissing. And absolutely no falling in love.

And they're both about to break every one of them.

For mature listeners.
