Threatened by her Artificial, Arta, Princess Goselyn is forced to switch places and pretend she isn’t human when she reaches Prince Corinth to negotiate a treaty they both need to be able to take their respective crowns one day. If she doesn’t comply, her Artificial, controlled by her evil cousin, will not only kill Goselyn’s mother, but Prince Corinth and his father as well. Can the quiet princess outsmart a machine created to be more intelligent than she is, all while surviving the other Artificials and robots working against her in the foreign palace, or will Corinth and his father find out and destroy her chance to save them all? Perfect for fans of Katherine Arden, Kiera Cass, and Annie Sullivan.
