Juvelian Eloy Floyen remembers exactly how her previous life ended: accused of a crime she didn't commit, abandoned by her lover, and left to die by her cold-hearted father. Now reborn with her memories intact, she is determined to avoid that miserable fate. Her new goal is simple: dump her toxic ex-boyfriend, enjoy her father's wealth while she can, and absolutely, under no circumstances, marry the infamous Crown Prince, Maximilian, who is rumored to be a ruthless psychopath.
To ward off the Emperor's marriage decree, Juvelian decides she needs a fake lover to prove she is unavailable. She sets her sights on her father's student—a handsome, seemingly harmless mercenary who seems like the perfect shield. Unbeknownst to her, this 'student' is none other than Maximilian himself in disguise. What starts as a desperate survival strategy turns into a comedy of errors as Juvelian unknowingly falls for the very man she swore to avoid.
Beyond the romance, Father, I Don't Want This Marriage is a touching story about healing family trauma. As Juvelian fights to change her future, she begins to uncover the truth behind her father's icy exterior, realizing that Duke Regis's actions might be born of a desperate, clumsy love rather than hatred. Readers will be captivated by the mix of laugh-out-loud misunderstandings, high-stakes political intrigue, and the heartwarming journey of a father and daughter finding their way back to each other.
