I Don’t Need a Husband, I’ll Just Make Money

Princess Aristine has been exiled from the emperor’s favor—but she has a secret the court fears: the Sovereign’s Eye, a power that lets her see the past, present, and future. When she’s traded away in a political marriage to a “monster” from the barbarian north, Aristine makes a quiet vow: skip the romance, build a fortune, buy her freedom.

Her plan? Use her visions like a ledger—spot hidden ore veins, predict trade winds, outmaneuver nobles and merchants alike—and turn a sham marriage into seed capital.
The snag? Her terrifying fiancé turns out…not so terrifying. He’s sharp, honorable, far too handsome—and their wedding night ends with a broken bed and a broken resolve. Aristine keeps telling herself she’s only here for the money. The empire’s knives are still out for her, rivals are circling her ventures, and falling in love was never on the balance sheet.

Can she stack gold high enough to live on her own terms—or will she end up catching two prizes at once: freedom and a husband worth keeping?
