Route of Secrets
A princess in disguise. A merchant with secrets. A love worth fighting for.
Princess Julie will do anything to avoid an arranged marriage - even pose as a merchant on the legendary MerChain Express caravan.
Her mission: prove she can secure profitable trade deals without sacrificing her independence.
Alex Kraft has his own demons to battle. Shunned by his family for his lack of magical ability, he sees the MerChain as his chance to prove his worth through cleverness and determination alone.
Their paths collide in a whirlwind of rivalry turned romance. Together they face bandits, negotiate cutthroat deals, and challenge the iron grip of the powerful Redwood trading company. Their growing feelings for each other offer a taste of freedom neither expected.
One night of misunderstandings tears them apart.
Julie must race to unravel a web of illusions before Redwood's manipulations separate them forever. Her heart - and her kingdom's future - hang in the balance.
Will Julie risk everything to prove her love is real? Or will forces beyond her control destroy the one true connection she's ever known?
