Edward is the Crown Prince of Canada, and leads a pretty charmed life. But he has just one tiny problem: he’s unsure how to tell his parents, his beloved country, and his adoring fans that he’s gay. Billy should be happy with the simple life. And yet this out-and-proud cowboy feels destined for something more... When the boys meet by chance in New York City, they discover that they are long-lost twins, and their lives are forever changed. Together, will these twin princes —“twinces”— be able to take on high school, coming out, and coronations? Or will this royal reunion quickly become a royal train wreck?
