Lady Camembert wants to live life on her own terms, without marriage. Well, without marrying a man, that is. But the law of the land is that women cannot inherit. So when her father passes away, she does the only thing she can: She disguises herself as a man and moves to the capital city of the Kingdom of Fromage to start over as Count Camembert.
But it’s hard to keep a low profile when the beautiful Princess Brie, with her fierce activism and great sense of fashion, catches her attention. Camembert can’t resist getting to know the princess, but as the two grow closer, will she able to keep her secret? In this funny, heartfelt graphic novel rom-com, a noble with a secret and a princess on a mission find love (and grilled cheese) where they least expect it.
"This story is such a joy — a spectacular, feel-good, comfy romance. Olive-skinned Cam, with her flowing black locks, is suave — but also, in Brie’s own words, 'an airhead with the attention span of a worm'.... Brie, with her curly blond bob and pale, rosy skin, is conscientious and beautiful, and she will capture readers’ hearts as quickly as she does Cam’s. Plenty of roses and sparkles à la shōjo or yuri manga and cute, exaggerated facial expressions make the watercolor-style images endearing." — Kirkus Reviews
