Bobby Knight was born into power, privilege, and a name that opened every door in New York City.

When he launches Knight Industries, his biggest competition comes from the last person he ever expected—Sophia Reyes, the girl who shattered his ego back in college. Sophia came from nothing. A childhood spent counting every penny and dreaming of a future where her hard work—not her connections—would make her unstoppable. Now, she’s the fierce and brilliant CEO of NovaTech, and nothing will stand between her and success—not even the golden boy who once humiliated her in front of their entire business school class.

Synopsis In the grand halls of Averleigh Palace, a competition unlike any other unfolds. By royal decree, the firstborn daughters of noble families must compete for the honor of becoming Crown Prince Alexander’s bride. The trials will test their grace, wit, and resilience, but behind the glittering facade lies a court filled with secrets, ambition, and betrayal. Lady Evelyn has no desire for a crown, nor for the hand of a prince she has never met. With dreams of pursuing medicine rather than royalty, she refuses to play into the expectations of a future queen. Forced into the competition against her will, she vows to fail every trial and return home as soon as possible. But when a moment of fate places her at the center of the royal family’s attention—saving King Aldric’s life during a crisis—Evelyn finds herself in the spotlight she desperately wanted to avoid. The king favors her. The prince begins to take notice. And the other contestants? They are seething with resentment. Yet, unknown to all, Prince Alexander harbors a secret—a love outside the palace walls, one that could unravel the entire selection process. As tensions rise and betrayals unfold, Evelyn must navigate a world of power plays and whispered alliances, all while resisting the undeniable pull between herself and the very man she swore never to love. But in a game where hearts and thrones are at stake, can she truly escape her destiny? A tale of duty, defiance, and unexpected love, The Reluctant Crown is a royal romance where winning the prince’s heart may be more dangerous than losing it.
