Description

Perfect for fans of Meg Cabot and Shannon Hale, Undercover Princess is a charming royal adventure by YouTube star Connie Glynn (Noodlerella).

Lottie Pumpkin is an ordinary girl who has spent her life longing for the extraordinary.

Ellie Wolf is the crown princess of Maradova, who wants nothing more than a chance at an ordinary life.

When fate puts Lottie and Ellie in the same dorm room at the prestigious Rosewood Hall, there’s only one solution: for the girls to swap identities, and live the lives they’ve always dreamed of.

But at Rosewood, a secret never stays secret for long. Someone in the school is on to them—and if the truth is revealed, the results may be more treacherous than they ever expected.

Undercover Princess is the first book in the Rosewood Chronicles series.


What happens when pretending to be a princess becomes dangerously real?


  • An Identity Swap: Lottie has always dreamed of being a princess. Ellie, the real princess of Maradova, just wants to be normal. Swapping places at Rosewood Hall seems like the perfect solution for them both.
  • A Secret Princess: Ellie Wolf is trying to keep her royal status hidden, but fitting in is harder than she thought—especially when your roommate is obsessed with everything you’re trying to escape.
  • A Dangerous Mystery: Someone at school knows the truth behind their switch. As the two dig deeper, they realize their secret might not just get them expelled—it could put them in real danger.
  • The Prince and the Pauper Retelling: A modern twist on a classic tale, this story is set in the enchanting and secret-filled halls of Rosewood Hall.
