Common: A Clean Fairytale Romance
In a kingdom where romance between royalty and commoners is forbidden, loving a prince could change everything...
Leah spends her days scrubbing floors, polishing silver, and meekly curtsying to nobility. Nothing distinguishes her from the other commoners at the palace - except her budding relationship with Rafe, the handsome, respectable, and endearing Crown Prince of Imperia.
For years, they've secretly met in a closet, but after Rafe's parents force his betrothal to a foreign princess, Leah accepts a reality without their newfound love. Until she discovers that the prince's fiancée is part of a plot to murder and dethrone him.
When she reports her findings, the queen banishes her for treason. Now Leah must embark on a grand adventure to rescue the prince, requiring magic, spying, and a ferocious battle.
Can a common maid summon the courage to fight for love?
An original sweet fairytale with beautiful romance and daring adventure reminiscent of Ever After, this story captures the essence of happily-ever-after.
