All Casia ever wanted was a happy home and a doll, but the former went out the window when the emperor forced her mother into marriage. Life as a princess was isolating but bearable... that is, until her mother was unjustly branded as a criminal. Now, with the help of her trusted aides, including the youngest prince, Casia is forging her own path outside the palace. As owner of her own doll shop, will she finally be able to escape the imperial family’s clutches and find her true happiness?
