Synopsis of Nina the Starry Bride
Nina had a difficult start in life, stealing to survive – and ended up being sold into slavery by her own brother. But to her surprise, her captor, Prince Azure, ordered her to live the life of a princess… specifically, that of the recently deceased princess-priestess, Alisha. But despite her changing fortunes, Nina won’t give up her old life without a fight… and Azure may be the only one to finally match her intelligence. But how much can she trust Azure? And will she be able to stop the feelings from welling up in her heart, knowing that eventually she will have to marry someone else…?
