Mushikaburi-hime summary

Ever since she learned to read, Eliana Bernstein – better known as the “Library Princess” – has preferred the company of books to people. However, as nobles, it is their duty to find a suitor. Luckily for her, Crown Prince Christopher Selkirk Asherald offers her a deal: he will protect her free time, and in return Eliana will be his fiancee in name only.

The years together are a blessing, because Eliana learns to open up to others. But all good things come to an end. For Eliana, who loves books more than people, ending their fake relationship shouldn’t be a big deal. But when Christopher gets close to another girl, Eliana begins to realize that she is not as indifferent to him as she thought.
