Crown Prince Jae-min is desperate to escape a political marriage he never wanted. His plan? Go off the grid and hide in a tiny, snow-covered village where no one will find him. His hideout is a cozy Christmas cafe run by Eun-ji, a beautiful, witty, and surprisingly fierce baker who believes in the magic of Christmas. When Jae-min is found, he makes her a deal she can't refuse: pretend to be his fiancée to avoid capture, and he'll save her cafe from ruin.
As their pretend relationship blossoms, they find a love so real it defies logic. But their enemies won't stop until they're exposed. When a final, desperate twist reveals a conspiracy that runs deeper than they ever imagined, their love is put to the ultimate test. Can they defeat a kingdom of powerful foes and still find their happy ending, or will their Christmas romance be lost forever?
