It seems like a dream come true . . . until it forces her to question everything.
Brielle Adebayo is fully content teaching at a New York City public school and taking annual summer vacations with her mother to Martha’s Vineyard. But everything changes when her mom drops a bombshell–Brielle is really a princess in the island kingdom of Ọlọrọ Ilé, off the coast of Africa, and she must immediately assume her royal position, since the health of her grandfather, the king, is failing.
Distraught by all the secrets her mother kept, Brielle is further left spinning when the Ọlọrọ Ilé Royal Council brings up an old edict that states she must marry before her coronation, or the crown will pass to another. Brielle is uncertain if she even wants the throne, and with her world totally shaken, where will she find the courage to take a chance on love and brave the perils a wrong decision may bring?

Imagine being happy with your life and one day your mother tells you that you are the crown Princess if a small island nation? And the king is near death. You must go and see him and decide how your life will play out now. Then you discover you must marry before the king passed and are given a list of men to choose from. Boy, I sure wouldn’t want to be in Brielle’s shoes. Even if they were royal slippers. Toni Shiloh brings it in a sweet story straight out of a fairy tale that is sure to delight all who read it.
