內容簡介: |
A Prince and a Pauper
Jemmy, once a poor boy living on the streets, now lives in a
castle. As the whipping boy, he bears the punishment when Prince
Brat misbehaves, for it is forbidden to spank, thrash, or whack the
heir to the throne. The two boys have nothing in common and even
less reason to like one another. But when they find themselves
taken hostage after running away, they are left with no choice but
to trust each other.
