Thief liar lady (Random House)

Happily Ever After is a total scam, but at least this time the princess is the one controlling the grift - until her true love arrives and threatens to ruin the whole scheme. I'm not who you think I am.My transformation from a poor, orphaned scullery maid into the enchantingly mysterious lady who snagged the heart of the prince did not happen - as the rumours insist - in a magical metamorphosis of pumpkins and glass slippers.Instead, with the help of a touchingly tragic past and the some highly illegal spells, my stepsisters and I infiltrated the ball and captured the attention of the prince.

I became a princess, secured our fortunes, and ensured we'd all live happily ever after.But of course, there's always more to the story. Now my magic is running out, war is looming, and a handsome hostage prince - the wrong prince - is distracting me with his magnetic charm and forbidden flirtations.

I'm in danger of losing control of the delicate balance I've created... And that could prove fatal.There's so much more riding on this than a crown.
