The Princess and the Paparazzi

The Princess and the Paparazzi: A modern fairytale retelling of The Prince and the Pauper (Lit Lovers Series)

A modern-day fairytale romcom with mistaken identities, secret swaps, and double the love story.

What happens when a small-town barista and a Hollywood starlet discover they’re dead ringers? A whole lot of chaos—and maybe a couple of happily ever afters. In The Princess and the Paparazzi, Kenna is stuck in a rut, slinging coffees and shelving her dreams of becoming a photographer. Lorelei Dupont is desperate to escape the spotlight and take a breath without someone snapping a photo. When the two cross paths in Ephron and agree to switch lives for one week, neither expects the whirlwind of surprises—especially not the unexpected connections they each find on the other side of the mirror.

This feel-good romantic comedy is a fresh, heartwarming retelling of The Prince and the Pauper, perfect for fans of The Parent Trap, Christina Lauren, and Sophie Kinsella. Packed with charming small-town vibes, secret identities, found family, and not one—but two—slow-burn romances, The Princess and the Paparazzi is a delightful standalone in the Lit Lovers series. With dual POVs, witty banter, and just the right dose of sweetness and steam, this book is a perfect escape into a world where trading lives might just lead to finding your own.
