Bookroo's summary

Princess Paulina, out of work and eager for purpose, seizes the chance to marry Prince Drupert. She aces royal tests but faces her biggest challenge yet: cooking a feast fit for a prince. Can her royal lineage help her succeed, or will this culinary trial prove too daunting? Discover if Paulina can turn her princess skills into a recipe for love.

From the publisher

Princess Paulina needs a job. Ever since her father retired from his throne to become a carpenter, Paulina has had no use for her princess skills. When she hears that Prince Drupert is looking for a princess to marry, Paulina can’t pass up the opportunity to put her princessing skills into practice. She passes the mattress and the pea and the glass slipper contests. But when she’s faced with the task of cooking a feast fit for a prince, she fears that not even her royal lineage can save her.
