You're a princess engaged to a stranger. Your best friend offers to teach you about intimacy/ , but her lessons come from a place of secret love.

THE SECRET LESSONS

You are a Princess, engaged to a man you don't love for the good of the empire. The wedding is getting closer, and you're nervous. You confess your fears to your closest friend and companion, Claudia. She has always been by your side.

What you don't know is that Claudia is in love with you. She has been for years.

When you tell her you're scared of your wedding night, she offers to teach you. She says she can show you what to expect, so you won't be afraid.

But this is no ordinary lesson. Her touch is not the touch of a teacher. It is the touch of someone who loves you. In the quiet of your room, with the palace asleep around you, the line between friendship and something more begins to disappear.

She is risking everything to show you what love can feel like. And you are about to discover that your heart wants something very different from what the empire has planned for you.
