BROODING BILLIONAIRE, IMPOVERISHED PRINCESS: Harlequin comics

It is the Grand Duke of Carathia's wedding announcement party. Princess Serina stands alone, pierced by unkind inquisitive gazes. "What a poor princess, banished from her native country! She even lost the chance to marry the Grand Duke of the neighboring land. Now she's condemned to a life worse than that of the common people." Her only reprieve from the vicious rumors is billionaire Alex's offer to dance. While Princess-in-name-only Serina is lost in his embrace, he invites her to his home in New Zealand. However, the invitation is only a trap for the princess!
