From acclaimed author Alyssa Cole comes the tale of a city Cinderella and her Prince Charming in disguise . . .
Between grad school and multiple jobs, Naledi Smith doesn’t have time for fairy tales…or patience for the constant e-mails claiming she’s betrothed to an African prince. Sure. Right. Delete! As a former foster kid, she’s learned that the only things she can depend on are herself and the scientific method, and a silly e-mail won’t convince her otherwise.
A Princess in Theory by Alyssa Cole is the first book in the Reluctant Royals series, published on February 27, 2018. The novel is a contemporary romance that blends humor, culture, and a dash of royalty.
The story follows Naledi Smith, a brilliant graduate student at NYU who has grown up in foster care and is trying to build a life for herself. She has long ignored the numerous emails she receives from a prince claiming that they are engaged, assuming it’s just a scam. However, it turns out that Thabiso, the crown prince of the fictional African country of Thesolo, has been trying to reconnect with her for years.
Naledi and Thabiso were betrothed as children, a detail Naledi has no memory of, and Thabiso has been sent to New York to convince her to accept their arranged engagement. But Naledi, who is suspicious of his intentions, is more interested in focusing on her career and leaving her past behind. As the two begin to get to know each other, they uncover more than just royal duty—they discover their deep feelings for one another.
