I Picked Up a No-Good, Useless Prince, Volume 1

As much fantasy romance as it is cozy slice-of-life, this story offers a unique twist on the prince-and-commoner relationship.

Innkeeper Emma Norwinner has spent her life idolizing Prince Kulhi, the dashing First Prince of Gahama... that is, until the day he collapsed at her door.

Having been stripped of his title and banished from the castle, Kulhi arrives at the cozy inn with nothing but an empty stomach and some serious self-esteem issues. And while Emma recognizes his face right away, she's left wondering: who the heck is this sad, self-deprecating husk of a man, and what has he done with her idol?!

Unable to bear seeing her pitiful prince in so much pain, Emma resolves to help Kulhi pick up the pieces of his shattered former self... starting by offering him a room in exchange for helping out with her innkeeper duties! But it turns out a pampered prince is totally useless when it comes to running an inn.

Nevertheless, with Emma at the helm, the Prince Kulhi Revival Project begins in earnest!
