Hi gorgeous souls,

Thank you so much for picking up Royal Lies and giving it a chance. This book has been a deep, thrilling escape from my usual world of soft, comforting romances. With this story, I dove into the shadows—into the hearts of villains who are rarely offered a voice or a second glance.

Royal Lies is a rollercoaster of deception, cruelty disguised as justice, and a marriage born from lies. It's a painfully quiet storm of unapologetically dark characters. No one here is innocent. No one here is truly trustworthy.

— Tropes —

> Mafia x Royal Princess

> Italian ML x Indian FL

> One woman’s man × One man’s woman

> Slow burn tension

> Marriage built on deception

> Reverse age gap (7 years)

> Morally gray leads—and everyone around them

> PTSD representation

> Violence, strong language & explicit content

> Obsession & possessiveness

> Rom-com moments sprinkled throughout the dark

— Dedication —

This book is for the readers who don’t shy away from chaos, who crave complexity, and who secretly root for the ones who burn the world down just to build their own.
