Not only does that come with an enormous family, but the things she writes in her journal also have a tendency to come true.

Rumbold hopes to make Sunday fall in love with him as the man he is and not the frog he was.Sunday does feel a strange, strong attraction to this prince she barely knows. But what other twisted secrets might lie hidden in his past…and hers?
