@jeno.gocho: Book no.45: THE GILDED DECEPTION by JENO GOCHO Her face is their salvation. Her heart is his betrayal. In a kingdom of lies, the only cage is the truth. When street orphan Selina is torn from the slums and thrust into a deadly royal masquerade, survival means becoming someone she's not—Princess Aurelia. One mistake could cost her head. One look from her enigmatic bodyguard could cost her heart. Captain Jake has sworn his life to protect the princess. But the woman under his guard isn't who she claims to be. She moves like a predator, fights like a survivor, and challenges everything he believes about duty and honor. As he unravels her secrets, he discovers a truth more dangerous than any blade: he's falling for the very deception he's meant to expose. In a court where every smile hides a dagger and every word is a weapon, Selina must master the art of being a princess while Lord Valerius—a wolf in nobleman's clothing—circles ever closer to the truth. But when assassins strike and the kingdom teeters on the brink of chaos, the girl from the gutters and her conflicted protector must choose between the crowns they serve and the hearts they're desperate to save. Some cages are made of gold. Others are made of love. With royal blood spilled, ancient oaths shattered, and a kingdom's fate hanging in the balance, Selina and Jake will risk everything for a chance at freedom—and each other. But in a world where love is treason and truth is rebellion, can a gutter sparrow and a knight ever truly be free? Perfect for readers who devour enemies-to-lovers romance, morally complex characters, and fantasy worlds where love conquers duty. A sweeping tale of forbidden love, political intrigue, and the courage to choose your own destiny.
